[tahoe-dev] x32/64 problem?

[Mike Nation]

Not sure why I thought it'd be a good idea to use the x64 version of Python with Tahoe ..  I removed the x64 version of Python 2.7.5, and installed the x32 version.  After running the setup commands from scratch again, I was able to get connect to the test grid with no trouble on Windows 7 x64.  Sorry I wasn't able to test your workaround.

Thanks for the help.

A workaround for this is to download and install
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/pywin32-218.win32-py2.7.exe/download>.
Please report back whether that worked.

(It would be
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/pywin32-218.win32-py2.7.exe/download>
for 32-bit Windows, assuming Python 2.7.)
