Workaround exists, degrading to bug

On the windows machines it is not running in server mode. Only on gentoo
machines and there is no problem ;-)

It is only when updating from old version to 1.0.1 with the 2.5 Python install
(which was removed recently from the download page of mercurial). When I do the
Upgrade with the 2.4 version all works perfect.

do you use initial hg in http server mode? the os may lock the access to
executable...

Hi in the past it always worked. The only problem with the latest version is
that hg.exe is not updated. Everything else is updated.

Hello,

I also ran into an error with the Windows binary installer. I had a previous
version of mercurial installed (0.9.x) and running the 1.0.1 binary installer
prevented the hg command line program from working. After trying to upgrade,
typing 'hg' at a command prompt gave me a python error. I logged in as an
Administrator on my computer, ran the Uninstall utility, and then re-ran the
1.0.1 binary installer; then mercurial worked just fine.

(Sorry, I forgot to write down what the python error was :( If you want I can
try to reproduce it; let me know)

Perhaps we could just add a note to the binary packages page (
http://mercurial.berkwood.com/ ) saying that old versions of mercurial should be
uninstalled before running the new binary installation? Or is it the intent that
the binary program should also upgrade old versions?

Hi,

when installing over the old version I get the problem. When deleting 
the directory c:\Mercurial and than install it works.

I did not have such an issue with mercurial before. And I use it now 
about 2 years.

It seems that hg.exe is not updated. It has a date of 22.10.2007 but all 
other files are updated including library.zip.

When I update the old version and than copy in the directory the hg.exe 
from a plain new install of 1.0.1 than it works!

It seems that there is a bug in the install program.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Christian Czech

I'm not seeing this.  I'm able to clone, log, check-in etc.  Were you running a 
previous version that might somehow be interfering?

The prebuild version can be installed and when started gives the error:

sys:1: RuntimeWarning: Python C API version mismatch for module _memimporter: Th
is Python has API version 1013, module _memimporter has version 1012.

The alternative Python 2.4 version works.
