I more meant that because of the EOL for that version of Windows, we don't have 
support at all in that version of Python. So while we try to have helpful 
failure messages, ultimately we aren't obliged to do anything useful at all, 
and it sounds like that's what is happening.

You'll need to use an earlier version of Python, probably 3.4. Will that work 
for you?

Steve,
there was no information or no log files created in %TEMP%, but you would think 
some kind of message dialog or log would be displayed or created. 

And I am aware of the end of life for 2008 r2 enterprise server, but this 
organization is still running this version for some of their servers.

Steve Dower  added the comment:

I believe these are both out of support, but the installer should be showing an 
error still.

If you look at recently created files in %TEMP% you may see some logs that will 
provide more information. The best resolution however is likely to require 
upgrading Windows Server or using an older version of Python

[issue33258] Unable to install 3.6.5 on Windows Server 2008

[Carl]

New submission from Carl :

Hello,

I am trying to install python version 3.6.5 on a windows 2008 2008 rc2 SP1 
server.

I have tired both the installer for python-3.6.5.exe and python-3.6.5-amd64.exe 
installers. 

Both will not run on the server either from the gui or the command line prompt 
with admin privileges. It appears to run but nothing happens, no response or no 
error is provided. Any there any other methods to install this version?
