Installing with Py 2.7.3 on Win 8 x64 #189

I get the following error output:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\AppHolder\XDM\setup.py", line 676, in main() File "D:\AppHolder\XDM\setup.py", line 642, in main result = buildWIN(buildParams) File "D:\AppHolder\XDM\setup.py", line 267, in buildWIN p = subprocess.Popen([ sys.executable, 'setup.py' ], cwd=auto_process_dir) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 679, in init errread, errwrite) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 896, in _execute_child startupinfo) WindowsError: [Error 267] The directory name is invalid

I have googled quite a bit. I am not really familier with Python but I did fiddle aroudn with the popen function in subprocess.py. None of the suggestions I found nor my own tweaks resolved this.

I also tried executing all command as administrator in case it was permissions related. No luck.

I get this as well...

Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 676, in main() File "setup.py", line 642, in main result = buildWIN(buildParams) File "setup.py", line 267, in buildWIN p = subprocess.Popen([ sys.executable, 'setup.py' ], cwd=auto_process_dir) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 710, in init errread, errwrite) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 958, in _execute_child startupinfo) WindowsError: [Error 267] The directory name is invalid

I however have not messed with any functions, but I have googled the crap out of it...
