I installed the experimental buildout package into c:\Plone317. Then I
changed my path statement to include c:\Plone317\Python\ and
c:\Plone317\Python\Scripts. I can run python from any folder and I'm python.
Import sys, then sys.executable shows c://Plone317//Python//.
But from the command line, if I run easy_install with or without parameters,
I get:
Cannot find Python executable
C:\src\Windows\trunk\build\community\3.1.7\external-Python-2.4-source\python.exe
Where is easy_install constructing this odd path from? A config file? A
python script?
Also reported by runyaga here: http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/8757
Thanks for any help.
I'm not sure why the buildout-based installer has easy_install at all.
For most purposes in Plone, easy_install and buildout (i.e. editing
buildout.cfg to add a new egg and re-running bin\buildout) are mutually
exclusive - and the latter is more predictable and better supported.
