Launcher can't run on Windows

[Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi]

Keryx (keryx_0.92.4_testing.zip) can't run in Windows see the log files.

This bug maybe related to current path problem.

Have you tried running from source? You will need Python and wxPython installed on your Windows machine to do so. You can get the correct win32-unicode wxPython installer here: http://www.wxpython.org/download.php#binaries

If running from source works, we can be certain that this is a problem only with the binary and can go from there.

Which version I've to use? As I remember from last test it was for
python 2.5 is it?

It should work with 2.6, but 2.5 is preferred.

I tried to run Keryx from source code (as you said) by using Python 2.5
& wxPyhton for py2.5 but it failed and I got error message as shown in
the attached file.

What you suggest?

All right, that tells me that the problem is not with the executable.
As of right now, I have no ideas. I'll investigate further tomorrow
and tell you what I find out.

[Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi (mbnoimi)]

Just a reminder :-P

Hey, sorry about the delay. I expected to have time to look into this, but a five-day trip came faster than I expected. I'm still catching up after my time offline, so please hang in there for a little longer. I'll get to work on this bug soon. Thanks. :-)

I tested on three XP machines and a Win7RC, but could not reproduce the error.

So the good new is, the problem does not occur on all Windows machines.
The bad news is, I have no system to test bugfixes on.

I found where someone else ran into the same error. Try his instructions, then run Keryx again from source: http://blog.oneortheother.info/tip/python-fix-cp720-encoding/

[Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi (mbnoimi)]

OK, I'll test soon.
