AutoIt Installation problem, though it has all it needs

[Ganesh Kumbhar]

Hello Everyone,

I have installed ActivePython 2.7.9, properly.

Now I want to install Autoit Library of Robot Framework.

So I ran setup.py of AutoItLibrary-1.1 & it started installation but at the end, gave some unexpected error as below : 

Don't think we need to unregister the old one...

%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\AutoItLibrary\lib\AutoItX3.dll

python C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\makepy.py C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\AutoItLibrary\lib\AutoItX3.dll

running install_data

creating H:\

error: could not create 'H:\': The system cannot find the path specified

Not getting, why it is looking for H drive, I don't even have it on my system.

Also I added HOMEDRIVE env variable with value c: . But still same error .

Please let me know if anyone has got same problem & has solved!

Thanks a lot in advance!

Ganesh.

Hi Ganesh

You can try install robotframework-autoitLibrary with another package in this topic

AutoIt doesn’t do ANYTHING with an H: drive. I have no idea where this came from. Where did you get your copy of AutoItLibrary?

 

Thanks,

Martin

Hello Phuoc & Martin,

Thank You for your reply,

@ Phuoc : Yes, I was trying the same zip and also tried the one which you have shared. But getting the same error :( 

@ Martin : Actually I had downloaded it from some website where we could get both 1.0 & 1.1 versions, not sure of the link

                  Also tried with this one : https://pypi.python.org/pypi/AutoItLibrary/1.1.post1, but same error. 

Please share your zip if it worked for anyone ! 

Thank You!

Hello Phuoc,

Yes, was following the same steps and getting same error. 

But finally got a solution after lot of trial & error:-) 

The problem was not with zip's, all were fine.

The problem was with the HOMEDRIVE variable that has been defined/used in the setup.py.

I believe, this variable points to the python installation folder & scripts folder in that , please correct me if I'm wrong.

So I changed "HOMEDRIVE" variable to "path" & it worked for all the zip's that I was trying for, earlier

So anybody getting such issue can try this one, it worked perfectly for me :) 

Thank you!

Ganesh

HOMEDRIVE is set on my PC without my doing it. I assumed it was standard Windows. If not, then perhaps this usage in setup.py should be replaced with SystemDrive, which I’m pretty sure is standard Windows. I was trying to avoid hardcoding “C:” as the drive, since some people don’t use this as their HOMEDRIVE or SystemDrive.

 

Cheers,

Martin
