[tahoe-dev] Windows install trouble

[Mike Nation]

I ran create-client, edited the introducer.furl line in tahoe.cfg to point to the public grid.  

Now trying to connect to testgrid, I get:

c:\allmydata-tahoe-1.10.0>bin\tahoe.pyscript start
STARTING 'C:\Users\mnation\.tahoe'
'C:\Users\mnation\.tahoe' does not look like a directory at all

That directory doesn't exist.  Sorry for the newb questions.

Thank you!  I entered "bin\tahoe.pyscript" and that did the trick.  Windows couldn't recognize the command "bin\tahoe" because of the other file in that directory named just "tahoe" which isn't an executable.

bin\tahoe.pyscript should be an executable script, and entering "bin\tahoe" in a
Command Prompt should run that script.

If that doesn't work, please paste the output of
"c:\python27\python setup.py scriptsetup".
