Can Not Install on Windows 7 64 Bit With Any Version of Python Installed #70

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Find a Lenovo T61 laptop, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.5 Ghz, with 4 Gig Ram, running 
Windows 7, 64 bit, Service Pack 1, with all important updates installed as of 
17 July 2014.

2. Install any of these versions of Python: python-3.3.4.amd64, python-3.4.1 
(32 bit), or python-2.7.8 (32 bit).

3. Run pybluez installer PyBluez-0.20.win32-py3.3

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected successful install.  But got failed install with dialog window that 
says: "Python version 3.3 required, which was not found in the registry".

Upon looking in the registry after my install of python 3.3.4, I did easily 
find Python 3.3 in the registry.

On clicking the "OK" button on the error dialog box, it disappears and behind 
it is a file selector window which I can not manipulate.  Can not type into the 
fields, and no files are listed.  I will endeavor to attach a jpg of the 
window. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

PyBluez-0.20.win32-py3.3, Windows 7 SP 1

Please provide any additional information below.

It appears that this library may not be usable on Windows 7, because I don't 
see it listed in the platforms.  I only see XP listed as a Windows platform.  
Is this the case?

If this is the case, is porting to Windows 7 planned?  Or do you recommend I 
just move to Linux and forget Windows? (wouldn't that be nice)

Thanks,

Bill

So...

PyBluez-0.20.win32-py3.3 installer is only for python3.3 win32 install
and You tried to install on python3.3 amd64.

But you have handfull of solutions:)
Download installer for python3.4 win32 from: 
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyBluez/0.20
as You have python-3.4.1 (32 bit) already installed
Or try same for with pybluez for python 2.7(but i would recomend using python 
3.4)

You could also download alternative installer for x64 python3.4:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pybluez

Either way it should work:)

I have run pybluez both on windows7 and windows8, did not try windows8.1 yet
