[issue29583] Python 3.6 won't install on Windows 2012 R2

2017-02-16 Thread Lane Campbell 

New submission from Lane Campbell:

When trying to install Python 3.6 using the "python-3.6.0-amd64.exe" installer 
on Windows 2012 R2 I encounter a failure.  

I'm flagging the options in the installer for:
Customize Installation
Add Python 3.6 to PATH
Leaving all Optional Features selected 
Under Advanced Options I'm checking "Install for all users" and letting 
Python's installer select "Precompile standard library".  
This is what the installer outputs when it fails: http://pastebin.com/XUzVJ1Y5

I've tried to download KB2999226 & KB3118401 manually but they say they aren't 
for my version of Windows.  I believe that the Python installer is detecting my 
version of Windows is 8.1 and isn't installing because of the Windows 
dependencies also fail since they are for version 8.1 (or at least appear to 
be).

Thanks Eryk, in case this helps anyone else the system is a new install of 
Windows 2012 R2 as of this week that I updated with all applicable Windows 
updates.

I tried your approach and succeeded after got the following for two of your 
packages:

KB2919442 - http://clicky.strapr.com/2W202P2k363m

KB3118401 - http://clicky.strapr.com/3N301p281b0d

The updates in KB2919355 did install and that seemed to fix the error.  Thank 
you so much!
