<div>Hi all,<br></div><div><br></div><div>I'm trying to install PIL, and get an error "Python version 2.7 required, which was not found in the registry". What registry values do I need?</div><div><br></div><div>
I'm running Windows 7 SP1</div><div><br></div><div>Steps:</div><div>1) Install Python 2.7 from <a href="http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.2/">http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.2/</a>, Windows x86 MSI Installer (2.7.2) with the following information in the installer:</div>

Version: 1.1.7</div><div><br></div><div>2) Run PIL executable from <a href="http://effbot.org/downloads/#imaging">http://effbot.org/downloads/#imaging</a> or <a href="http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/">http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/</a>, the 2.7 version</div>
<div><br></div><div>I've verified the registry information contains what is added in the script at <a href="http://effbot.org/zone/python-register.htm">http://effbot.org/zone/python-register.htm</a>:</div><div>In HKLM\Software\Python\PythonCore\2.7 there is InstallPath="C:\Python27" and PythonPath="C:\Python27\Lib;C:\Python27\DLLs;C:\Python27\Lib\lib-tk"</div>
<div><br></div><div>I've verified that Python 2.7 is installed to those locations.</div><div><br></div><div>I've been learning Python starting last week, and this is the first time I've tried to install a module. I would appreciate any help in troubleshooting this error.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Brenden</div>
