Category: Installation Group: Platform-specific Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Max M Rasmussen (maxmcorp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Can only install 1 of each version of Python on Windows Initial Comment: It is not possible to install more than one version of Python 2.4 on a Windows machine with the current installer. First time The installer is used, it is fine. Next time I have tree options: Change, Repair & Remove. I need a "Install another instance" I work in Zope, and recently I have been developing in Zope 3. Zope 3 is installed under "site-packages". If I only need one Version of Zope 3, it is no problem. But if I need both 3.2 and the current trunk from subversion, I cannot do it, as I can only install one version of Zope 3.x per python. And with only one Python, that means I can only have one version of Zope 3.x. As far as I can figure out, this must be a general problem for different library version that must be tested on the same Python version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Tim Peters (tim_one) Date: 2006-01-25 10:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=31435 You _can_ install a given Python version multiple times on Windows now, but to do so you need to set up a new account (which is easy) for each one, and do "just for me" (not "all users") installs of Python (and giving each a different installation directory). It can be a pain switching between accounts, but that's your only hope for short-term relief. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1414612&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
