New submission from Roger Cook: The Windows installer stops the installation and backs out on a clean system. Here is the relevant section of the log file (msiexec /i python-2.7.11.amd64.msi /l*v):
MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:32:577]: Executing op: ActionStart(Name=RemovePip,,) Action 15:13:32: RemovePip. MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:32:578]: Executing op: CustomActionSchedule(Action=RemovePip,ActionType=3090,Source=C:\Python27\python.exe,Target=-B -m ensurepip._uninstall,) MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:32:579]: Note: 1: 1721 2: RemovePip 3: C:\Python27\python.exe 4: -B -m ensurepip._uninstall MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:32:579]: Note: 1: 2262 2: Error 3: -2147287038 Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action: RemovePip, location: C:\Python27\python.exe, command: -B -m ensurepip._uninstall MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:37:027]: Note: 1: 2262 2: Error 3: -2147287038 MSI (s) (14:90) [15:13:37:027]: Product: Python 2.7.10 (64-bit) -- Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action: RemovePip, location: C:\Python27\python.exe, command: -B -m ensurepip._uninstall Action ended 15:13:37: InstallFinalize. Return value 3. --- end log --- It appears that the installer tries to call the Python executable before it has been put in place. This fails, and the installer backs out. Workaround: Install 2.7.10, then install 2.7.11 over it. ---------- components: Installation messages: 258836 nosy: Roger Cook priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: 2.7.11 won't clean install on Windows 10 x64 type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26183> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
