[tahoe-dev] Windows install trouble

[Mike Nation]

echo %PATHEXT% doesn't list either of the python extensions.

I'm running Win7 x64

Here's the output you requested:
	c:\allmydata-tahoe-1.10.0>c:\Python27\python setup.py scriptsetup
	running scriptsetup

	Setting up environment to run scripts for the current user...
	Already done: associate the filetype .pyscript with Python.File fo
	user.
	Already done: add .pyscript to the user environment variable PATHE
	Already done: add .pyw to the user environment variable PATHEXT.

Any ideas why I'm running into this error trying to connect to the public testgrid?

	c:\allmydata-tahoe-1.10.0>bin\tahoe.pyscript start

	STARTING 'C:\Users\mnation\.tahoe'
	'C:\Users\mnation\.tahoe' does not look like a directory at all

I checked, and the .tahoe  directory doesn't exist.  

Thanks,

mike

That's odd; the presence of that file is not supposed to make any difference on Windows.

What does "echo %PATHEXT%" say in a Command Prompt? (It is supposed to end in
";.pyscript;.pyw".)

Also, please paste the output of "c:\python27\python setup.py scriptsetup" (after
doing "echo %PATHEXT%").
