Problem with 2.4(alpha3)

[Will McGugan]

Hi,

After installing the lastest alpha, on Win 2k, I found that my scripts
no longer worked. It turns out that the .py file assocations had the
switches -n and -e set for 'open'. pyhton.exe was reporting unkown
option for these switches. I removed them and it seems to have fixed it.

Is there a problem with the installer, or some other issue when
installing 2.4 over 2.3.4?


Thanks,

Will McGugan

I ran into the same trouble and fixed the same way ;-)

I think this issue is caused by the scipt to create a msi installer.

I've just filed a bug report to sf, so I hope someone takes a look at it.
