New submission from verm <None>:
The Windows installer can be very unhelpful in it's error message in [source:trunk/win32/pyx.x-foo.iss.template@23264#L53 trunk/win32/pyx.x-foo.iss.template -> InitalizeSetup]
{{{
"Python does not appear to be installed"
"Please install Python before attempting to install Twisted."
}}}
The actual Error was Python2.5 amd64 was installed when the 32bit version is required. It would be nice to have a few extra checks here for such cases as situations like these when there is no way to debug the actual error can result in many hours of wasted time.
