Hi, the error you're getting is because you've installed python 2.7 without adding it to the system's path - and so Windows cannot find it. See here <https://gist.github.com/roblanf/6929493> or the second step here <http://www.aaronstannard.com/how-to-setup-a-proper-python-environment-on-windows/> in order to fix it.
Also, (if you don't have any specific reason) for newbie I suggest to go directly with Python 3 because Python 2.x is on its end of life ;-) Cheers, Nico Il giorno mer 18 set 2019 alle ore 05:05 dangeo <[email protected]> ha scritto: > Hello, I'm new to Web2py and just getting started with it.
