Hi,
  I downloaded the python-2.5.msi yesterday and tried installing it 
but i am getting the following error "This installation package could 
not be opened . cOntact the application vendor to verify that this is 
a valid WIndows Installer package."

I was able to install python 2.4.4 successfully in my system. I want 
python 2.5 urgently as I need to work in PyQt.

My machine config is: Microsoft Windows XP, Media Center Edition 
Version 2002, Service Pack 2. 

Please advice on this problem at the earliest.

Thanks,
Raja.

I installed python 2.5 on multiple windows machines and had no problem.
How ever, this doesn't look like it belongs in bug tracker. You will
have better chance if you post to comp.lang.python.

Indeed, this tracker is not about obtaining support. It is a place for
you to help us, not for us to help you.

If you want to help, please report the precise URL, and compute and
report the md5sum of the file you downloaded.
