bug: pyenv install fails with: error extracting the embedded portion from the installer #532

Open umer-telenordigital opened 1 year ago

umer-telenordigital commented 1 year ago

We are using the teamcity build runner to install python with pyenv, it uses this repo to install pyenv-win, the version of pyenv it installs is 3.1.1

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Create a build step in Teamcity to install python
  2. Specify any version, we have tested with 3.10.4
  3. Run it on a windows 10 or 11 machine
  4. It fails with this error: :: [Installing] :: 3.10.4 ... 14:54:24 :: [Error] :: error extracting the embedded portion from the installer. 14:54:24 :: [Error] :: couldn't install 3.10.4 14:54:24 pyenv specific python requisite didn't meet. Project is using different version of python.

Moreover, it can reproduced like this:

  1. RDP into the machine, open a command prompt
  2. Go to: C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile.pyenv\pyenv-win\bin;
  3. Type pyenv install 3.10.4
  4. it fails with a popup message (screenshot attached)

Expected Behaviour: It should install the required python version without any issues

Does clicking "Yes" on the pop-up provide additional information? dark.exe is a .NET application from the WiX toolset which we use to extract some of the .MSI files from the installer.

You probably ran the installer as a system user and your runner (correctly) does not have permission to write to C:\Windows\system32\. I had similar issues when trying to automate pyenv installation using Chocolatey and now am looking for the binaries in %UserProfile%\.pyenv-win\ instead of relying on the binaries on the system path - manually installing them if not present. Alternatively, you can make sure your agent setup uses the same user account as the runner.

This could potentially also be addressed with an environment variable after #579 is fixed
