Hello, I have Python 2.6 and Visual Studio 2008 running on a Win7 x64 machine.
When I try to build the basic python extension example in c "example_nt" as found in the python 2.6 sources distribution, it fails:
python setup.py build
And this results in:
running build
running build_ext
building 'aspell' extension
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 7, in <module>

File "C:\Python26\lib\distutils\msvc9compiler.py", line 274, in query_vcvarsall
raise ValueError(str(list(result.keys())))
ValueError: [u'path']
What can I do to fix this? Any help will be appreciated
