pyodbc-2.1.8.win32-py2.7.exe crashes under UAC with windows 7 #182

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

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

1. Install python2.7.1 and win32all build 216 for python2.7 on Windows 7 with 
default UAC settings. (I chose C:\Program Files\Python2.7 vs. C:\Python2.7 as 
the install location, since the former is also verboten with new Windows 
security standards.)

2. Try to install pyodbc.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
As soon as you click install in the wizard, you get a crash, with the following 
details:

Please provide any additional information below.

NOTE: If I add a data execution prevention exception for the program, and 
reboot, it still crashes, but if I turn off UAC entirely, and reboot, then the 
program executes to completion.

I'll see what I can do.  The installer is generated by the standard Python 
tools.  Hopefully I won't need to write my in Wix or something.

I assume the login was not an Administrator account?

Actually, it was.  Even administrators are not exempt from UAC restrictions.
