Python on Windows XP 64-bit: python not found in registry

After first trying to install the beta of Python 2.6 on my Windows XP
64-bit machine I finally succeeded installing 2.5.2. But I still have
a some problem: Installing iPython, PIL, easy_install etc fails saying
that python.exe cannot be found (although I can start the python
interpeter just fine). The problem is that python cannot be found in
the registry. I tried Effbot's solution of adding Python to the
registry, but that doesn't help:

http://effbot.org/zone/python-register.htm

Anybody here that had the same problem and solved it?

Thanks.

Anybody here that had the same problem and solved it?

Did you install the 32-bit or the 64-bit installer?

If the 64-bit installer, did you also install 32-bit or 64-bit
installers for iPython, PIL, and easy_install?

If you try to use 32-bit extensions or installers to locate a 64-bit
Python, that will fail: even if installation would succeed, you still
couldn't use the resulting installations, since you just can't mix
the two architectures in a single process.

Martin

Basically, it accepts a connection, forks a process, and then should close the child. on windows, it dies after "accumulating" 64 children opened - however, they should all (or most) have exited by that time. Any idea how to get my children to exit and free up space for more connections? Thanks - Josh here's the relevant...

I have a dual boot machine, runs Win XP pro and Win XP Pro 64, XP boots from C and XP 64 boots from D. They both have VS 2005 Beta 2 installed. I have a webapp developed in Win XP (32) which has gone well and runs fine in XP. I Now want to get this same app running under IIS on XP 64.

I am trying to execute a Socket.Select() statement on an arraylist of sockets. The problem is that I can only go up to 64 sockets at a time. I know that I have to manipulate the FD_SetSize to increase the limit. How do you do that in C# in the .NET Visual Studio environment? I could potentially have 1000's of simultaneous connections, so running each socket in it's own thread doesn't seem very practical. Stuart.

Hi All, I understand in older versions of DB2/UDB this was not possible. The following article explains how I might do this http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/db2/library/techarticle/0207kline/0207kline.html Is this still a restriction in version 9.x? I'd specifically like to restore a backup performed on an AIX server to a Windows server.
