New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com>: >From an old post on python-dev: 2010/08/04 Paul Kippes: > For the most part, the information at > http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4/msi/ assisted me with > automating a 2.7 installation on Windows XP. The following initial > attempt, however, failed to provide a working python installation. > (Messages are either "The system cannot execute the specified > program." or "This application has failed to start because the > application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application > may fix this problem.") > > msiexec /qb /i python-2.7.msi ALLUSERS=1 ADDLOCAL=Extensions > > After looking through Tools/msi/msi.py, I was able to automate a > minimal and working Python installation with this adjustment: > > ADDLOCAL=Extensions,SharedCRT > > Since the only reference I could find to the above web page was when > the MSI installer was first announced > (http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4.2), the installer options > may have changed since then. > > Would you check if my change is what you intended and perhaps migrate > the web page of the 2.4 release note to 2.7? > > Thanks!
