<p>Check if you already have an adequate version of Python installed by
|
||||
running <cite>python --version</cite>. Python v2.4 (v2.4.4 or
|
||||
greater), Python v2.5, Python v2.6, or Python v2.7 will
|
||||
work. Python v3 does not work. If you don't have one of these
|
||||
versions of Python installed, then follow the instructions on
|
||||
work. Python v3 does not work. On Windows, we recommend the use of
|
||||
Python v2.6 (native, not Cygwin).</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If you don't have one of these versions of Python installed, then
|
||||
follow the instructions on
|
||||
<a href="http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/">the Python
|
||||
download page</a> to download and install Python v2.6. Make sure
|
||||
that the path to the installation directory has no spaces in it (e.g. on
|
||||
Windows, do not install Python in the "<tt>Program Files</tt>" directory).
|

</p>

|

<h4>Windows Caveats</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> On Windows, we recommend the use of Python v2.6 (native, not
|
||||
Cygwin). You must manually install the pywin32 package from
|
||||
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/">the pywin32
|
||||
site</a> before getting Tahoe-LAFS. Make sure to get the correct file for
|
||||
the version of Python you are using — e.g. ending in "py2.6.exe"
|
||||
for Python v2.6. If using 64-bit Windows, the file should have
|
||||
"win-amd64" in its name.</p>
