A question regarding password recovery
Moderators: marionline, SDHawk
I expected that running "python setup.py install" using setup.py from the scons zip file would install it in the normal location for packages for that copy of python.
Could you repeat the installation of scons as above from the zip file (python setup.py install), but this time take a screenshot of or copy paste the output (hint: you have to right-click and select "Mark" to copy, draw a rectangle with the mouse, and then hit Enter). It might print several pages of output; just take a screenshot of the end of it.

It's strange that python 2.7 is missing from the registry, but you should be able to repair that by installing it overtop the existing installation at c:\Python27.
To install scons from the zip file you need to run "setup.py install" (or "python setup.py install). You forgot the "install" argument. But if you reinstall python 2.7 then the scons installer should work.

I'm gonna uninstall and reinstall Python. Just to make sure I'm doing this right! Even if it is (most likely) unnecessary.TMC wrote:It's strange that python 2.7 is missing from the registry, but you should be able to repair that by installing it overtop the existing installation at c:\Python27.

Oh, well... Okay then.
EDIT: I ran the Python repair thing from the installer. It still doesn't work. I'm about ready to quit.

Yeah, it still won't detect the Python folder.TMC wrote:Well... that's really bizarre.
What doesn't work? The scons installer still doesn't work? Regardless of which of the two python installations you select? (Though if they're both installed in the same place then it shouldn't matter)

What about scons-local?
go to http://www.scons.org/download.php and scroll down a bit until you find the scons-local zip file download.
It is supposed to be a standalone copy of scons that you can unzip right into the ohrrpgce folder. Perhaps it will work around the problems you have been having

EDIT: I tried to compile custom.bas, but I don't think I did it right.

scons-local doesn't include scons.bat, so I think you will have to run it by typing "python scons.py". (Maybe it's possible to run .py files directly from the commandline on Windows?) What happens when you do so? Does scons print a help message? If it does, then it's working, so run "python scons.py custom". If it didn't work then take a screenshot.
It told me that FreeBASIC wasn't installed.
I feel stupid. Because I thought it was installed.
EDIT: Attempted to install via command window since clicking the fbc.exe file only makes a window popup, then leave. Got this.

It's already there.
Code: Select all
c:\Program Files (x86)\FreeBASIC;c:\MinGW\bin;c:\Euphoria\bin;c:\python27;c:\python27\Scripts;

Oh, okay! Thanks! Will fix!Mogri wrote:You have FreeBASIC there, but not FreeBASIC\bin.
Mingw? I think I did. Let me double check!TMC wrote:Also, did you install Mingw (aka GCC, or alternatively Msys)? That message that scons printed about Visual Studio missing (which is NOT a requirement) makes me think that it didn't find any C/C++ compiler, including GCC.
Yup, it's there! But the launcher wasn't doing anything before until I figured out how to get the stuff to work.
EDIT: Got this message.
