#13131 closed defect (fixed)

Python SDK not installed on Windows -- vboxapisetup.py expects VBOX_INSTALL_PATH, not VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH

Reported by: vekt Owned by:
Component: installer Version: VirtualBox 4.3.12
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: all Host type: Windows

Description

vboxapisetup.py expects the VBOX_INSTALL_PATH environment variable but the Windows installer creates VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH.

vboxsetup.py could be updated to check both environment variables

vboxDest = os.environ.get('VBOX_INSTALL_PATH', None) # Non-Windows.
if vboxDest is None:
  vboxDest = os.environ.get('VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH', None) # Windows.

or the Windows installer could create the VBOX_INSTALL_PATH environment variable.
