What version of Python(x,y) have you installed?\n2.7.9.0\n\n2. Which components have you installed (Python(x,y) installer:\ncomponentpage):\n    a. Have you selected the \"Recommended\" component selection?\n    b. Have you selected the \"Full\" component selection?\nc. Have you selected manually plugins in the component list?\nWhatplugins?\nI have reduced it to the minimum ie Python 2.7 + base libraries\n\n3. Have you selected the option \"Customize installation directories\"?\na. Yes\nb. No\nNo\n\n4. If the answer to 3. is yes, what installation directories have you\nchosen?\n\n5. Where did you install Python(x,y) itself?\na. default path\nb. custom path, which one?\nThe default path\n\n6. Have you installed Python(x,y):\n    a. For \"Current user only\"\n    b. For \"All users\"\nFor \"All users\"\n\n7. What is your operating system?\na. Windows XP\nb. Windows Vista\nc. Windows 7\nd. Windows 8\nWindows 7 32bit\n8. Is the operating system 64 bit?\na. Yes\nb. No\nNo\n9. When you installed Python(x,y), were you logged in as :\na. a regular user\nb. an administrator of the machine\nregular user - that has administration privileges\n\n10. If you are using Windows Vista/7, have you installed Python(x,y):\na. simply by double-clicking on the installer\n    b. by right-clicking on the installer and selecting \"Run as an\nadministrator\"\nSimply double-clicking on the installer\n\n11. Regarding installed software on your machine, how did you clean your\nmachine before installing Python(x,y)  (multiple answers are possible):\na. you didn't do anything, you installed Python(x,y) directly on your\nmachine without precaution\nb. you uninstalled any previous Python distribution (including the\nofficial .msi)\nc. you cleaned the Windows registry by removing all Python-related keys\nd. you cleaned the environment variables by removing all deprecated\nentries\nI removed previous installed Python 2.7. There are no references to \"Python\" in \nthe registry or the PATH environment variable.\n\n\nWhat steps will reproduce the problem?\n1. Any attempt to install bombs when it fails to install the base Python 2.7 \npackage.\n2.\n3.\n\nWhat is the expected output? What do you see instead?\nA functional base installation of Python. if that works I would do a complete \ninstall .\n\nPlease provide any additional information below.\nI have been able to complete a full install on another machine in my lab. I had \na previously functioning version of Python 2.7.9 on this machine. I chose to \nremove this and install Python(x,y) because it had everything I needed rolled \ninto the complete install. I wouldn't need to hunt down packages to get the \nfunctionality I required. Something is preventing the successful installation \nof the base components - that stops everything else installing!  \n\n\n```\n\nOriginal issue reported on code.google.com by `nwatt...@d.umn.edu` on 21 Mar 2015 at 9:45\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/GoogleCodeExporter","@type":"Person","name":"GoogleCodeExporter"},"datePublished":"2015-05-14T12:45:00.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/769/pythonxy/issues/769"}
