Khalid, when responding by email, please delete the message you are responding 
to.

Steve, is there any reason to leave this open?  IE, do you plan to change the 
installer in response to this?

[issue22466] problem with installing python 2.7.8

2014-09-24 Thread Khalid 

Khalid added the comment:

I tried but I got this error this installation package could not be
opened. verify that the package exists  that you can access it, or contact
the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer
package (screen shot in the attachment)

by the way I'm admin!

 Can you try running this command and then post the log file after
 installation fails:

  msiexec /l*vx log.txt /i path to .MSI

[issue22466] problem with installing python 2.7.8

2014-09-24 Thread Steve Dower 

Steve Dower added the comment:

Ah, okay, so this is due to the embedded DLL in the installer that we extract 
and use to validate the install path (if you select a path that already exists, 
you get a prompt warning you).

I don't know why your %TEMP% directory was not read/write/execute, but since it 
works fine for most people I suspect a configuration issue on your machine. I 
have seen in the past some security policies that will break installers, 
though typically launching the installer from an elevated command prompt (one 
that says Administrator: Command Prompt in the title) typically avoids these 
issues.

Glad you found a workaround at least.

Steve Dower added the comment:

You almost certainly have a corrupted download. I'd try downloading the 
installer again, perhaps with a different browser?

but the question is did I make a security vulnerability?
