[wxPython] Simple install question - MSWindows

wxPython-2.3.1-Py21-hybrid.exe

This installer script apparantly looks for Python 2.1 in some 'standard'
install location (and doesnt look in the path variable). It aborts
installing, saying it can't find 2.1.

What is that location ?

Thanks

What is that location ?

The registry. The installer looks for the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Python\PythonCore\<PYTHONVER>\InstallPath and
uses that as the default install location.

Before you go and put that key in there try the 2.3.2b7 installer. It tries
to be a bit smarter about it. It looks for the key in HKCU if not found in
HKLM, and if it's still not found it just displays a warning and lets you
choose whatever dir you want.
