New submission from Paul Klapperich <python....@bobpaul.org>: Steps to reproduce:
1. python-2.7.2.msi /qb 2. Check registry for HKLM\SOFTWARE\Python or HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python Expected behavior: The key will exist and contain a key for 2.7 providing information such as the installation path. Observed behavior: The key and its subkeys are not created at all. Workaround: Don't use the /passive, /quiet, or /qX options. Additional information: * Running msiexec /fm python-2.7.2.msi does not insert the missing registry entries. * Running python-2.7.2.msi without options after install and choosing repair /also/ fails to insert the missing registry entries. * Aside from inserting the entries by hand, uninstalling and re-installing with the interactive GUI seems to be the only way to populate them. I've tested this on 64bit Windows 7 with 32bit Python 2.7.2 msi package only. ---------- components: Installation, Windows messages: 157161 nosy: Paul.Klapperich priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Unattended Install doesn't populate registry versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14457> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
