Hi,

I'm trying to get a handle on Python eggs using Easy Install.

Because I'm behind an ISA server it seems that first I need to install NTLMAPS - as adviced by Easy Install How-to page. I did just that and I know it's working because I tested it with Firefox. Didn't manage to run ez_setup.py so decided to look elsewhere. Turned of the NTLMAPS server and.

I've managed to install setuptools. But for this I had to use the manual installation (not the ez_setup.py bootstrap module).

The install went along fine.
Now came the problems. Trying to install SQLObject I got:

Z:\setuptools-0.6a8>C:\Python24\Scripts\easy_install.exe -f http://pyt
rg/package_index.html SQLObject
Reading http://pythonpaste.org/package_index.html
Searching for SQLObject
Reading http://www.python.org/pypi/SQLObject/
No local packages or download links found for SQLObject
error: Could not find distribution for Requirement.parse('SQLObject')

The funny (?#$6@!*) thing is that after a few tries and variations I get:
A windows dialog box saying: "C:\Python24\Scripts\easy_install.exe is not a valid Win32 application."

I'm at a lost!
I confess that I just follow along instructions, but that's what easy install is supposed to be about right?

Txs,
Miguel
