Processes fail when installing RBTools and running rbt

[Justin Palmer]

I'm not sure why the executables fail. C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts\ is at start of my path. Things work when I explicitly provide script to python...

>easy_install -U RBTools==0.6.3
failed to create process.

Hi Justin,

Can you give the new Windows installer a try and see if it works any better? https://www.reviewboard.org/downloads/rbtools/

I tried that and ran into issue 3729. This seems almost like interference from a virus scanner, but McAfee is supposedly disabled. I'm not familiar with how these executables invoke python. Looking around the 'net, people have seen this problem after renaming or relocating python. I have not.
