[issue24843] 2to3 not working
New submission from gladman: when I try to use the 2to3 script on the command line on Windows x64, I get the response: C:\Program Files\Python34\Tools\scripts2to3 C:\Users\brian\Downloads\puzzles.py At least one file or directory argument required. Use --help to show usage. When I ask for help I get: C:\Program Files\Python34\Tools\scripts2to3 --help At least one file or directory argument required. Use --help to show usage. In fact this is always the response I obtain irrespective of what I enter after '2to3' on the command line. Python 3.5rc1 also behaves in the same way. -- components: 2to3 (2.x to 3.x conversion tool) messages: 248396 nosy: gladman priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: 2to3 not working type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

eryksun added the comment: Your .py file association isn't configured to pass command-line arguments. Revert to using the Python.File type that was created by Python's installer. The associated command should be something like C:\Windows\py.exe %1 %* depending on where py.exe is located. -- components: +Windows -2to3 (2.x to 3.x conversion tool) nosy: +eryksun, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

gladman added the comment: Hi Steve, The behaviour I reported was the same on Python 3.4 and 3.5rc1. But eryksun was correct in suggesting that this was a problem in the way my file association for Python was set up. My py_auto_file association was set to: C:\Program Files\Python34\python.exe %1 adding %* on the end fixed the problem. (by the way, thank you for your work on _msvccompiler.py). best regards, Brian -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Steve Dower added the comment: Yes, I see. Thanks for clarifying, it seems all the installers are fine but Windows will generate associations that don't forward arguments. -- assignee: steve.dower - resolution: - not a bug status: open - closed versions: -Python 3.5, Python 3.6 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Steve Dower added the comment: I'm afraid there's no easy way to revert it. I may get to invest the time for 3.6's launcher[1] to make it available in Default Programs, but I've always struggled to get that to work properly. Explorer should always use the per-user command if it's there, and it's basically the responsibility of users to not change it if they don't want it to change. [1] The launcher owns the shortcut, not the core Python installation - the separation is only important to users in that if you don't include the launcher you don't get the association, and if you install the launcher for all users then the shortcut is for all users. (Also cleared the Versions field, since Python 3.4 creates the correct association too. Preventing user customization on a user's machine is not something we're going to get into, but that's the only way to solve this problem.) -- versions: -Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

eryksun added the comment: My py_auto_file association Oh, it's that auto filetype again. Steve, when you say you fixed this for 3.5, does that means there's a simple command or API to revert this automatic ProgId back to the Python.File type? This problem shows up repeatedly on Stack Overflow, so it would be nice to have a solution that works consistently from Windows 7 to 10. cmd.exe's built-in assoc and ftype commands only modify the local machine association and filetype. A per-user install doesn't use those, and sometimes Explorer instead uses a per-executable command defined in Software\Classes\Applications. Also, just modifying the command doesn't actually select what ShellExecuteEx will choose to run. I used to directly modify Explorer's FileExts\...\UserChoice for a given file extension, but that's actively discouraged by a deny ACL nowadays. Fine, but I've run into cases where Explorer's dialog doesn't let me choose a an existing ProgId. -- assignee: - steve.dower resolution: not a bug - status: closed - open versions: +Python 3.5, Python 3.6 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
