robotframework-autoitlibrary - issue #25

Cannot get project running on windows 7 machine


Posted on Oct 5, 2012 by Happy Cat

RIDE does not recognize AutoItLibrary. Install works fine on XP machines. have attempted to get running on numerous Windows 7 machines but get the same error. The provided calculator tests all fail (not that that is unexpected when it can't seem to locate the library). The AutoItLibrary appears to have installed itself in the proper location in Python27. However, it defaults to installing everything else on the H drive instead of C. Rewrote the code install module to explicitly install on the C: drive and this made no difference.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? windows 7, latest release of autoit

Please provide any additional information below. All other robot framework libraries function correctly.

I am also facing the similar issue. Without admin rights the AutoItLibrary cannot run on Windows7. The calculator tests failed. It throws error as "Keyword cannot locate". Is it a limitation of AutoItLibrary that it only runs system with full admin rights. Is there any workaround. Any kind of help is much appreciated.
