Notes
- Scrapy must be installed with Python 2.5, 2.6, or 2.7 (NOT 3.x)
- Python 2.7 (and 3.2) do not load the correct 32-bit compatible Windows Registry Keys
Install Procedure
- Download the Python 2.7.2 Windows Installer from http://www.python.org/getit/
- Go to the Search programs and files bar at the bottom of the start menu and type "regedit" and hit enter
- Using the left pane navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python" & click on it (highlighting it in blue)
- With the branch selected go to File --> Export
- Save the file somewhere you can get to it easily
- Open the file in your favorite text editor
- Insert "\Wow6432Node" inbetween "SOFTWARE" and "\Python" on every line (an easy way to do this is to do a find and replace with "SOFTWARE" in the Find Field and "SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node" in the Replace Field
- Save the file
- Navigate to where you saved said file and double click on it to initiate a Registry Modification
- Now download the Scrapy 0.14 Windows installer from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Scrapy
- Double click the Scrapy Installer and everything should work fine.
