Subversion Vista Install Failing

[johne <je...@yahoo.com>]

I have tried and failed to install Subversion on Vista Ultimate.

I have installed Python 2.5.1 on my machine here and then I tried to install
using all defaults the svn-python-1.4.5.win32-py2.5.exe file to attempt to
install.

In doing so as administrator, I get a several errors which cause subversion
to never install fully.  The errors are:
    1.  "Could not create......    svn-python-py2.5"    in a small pop-up
box.
    2.  "Could not set key value Python 2.5 svn-python-1.4.5" in a next
pop-up box.
    3. "Could not set key value C:\Python25\Removesvn-python.exe" -u
"C:\Python25\svn-python-wininst.log"

After these "OK" error pop-up windows, it then installs some files under
C:\Python25.

After this is done, the install seems incomplete.

I require its use in Netbeans and imagine that somebody has to have this
working under Vista after this much time has gone by.

Ideas on what I can do?

Right-click on the .exe and choose 'run as administrator' or do that
on a command prompt and then execute the setup exe from that command
prompt.

On Vista (unless you've turned off UAC), even admin users don't get
full admin rights until they explicitly ask for full rights (with the
'run as admin' context menu item).

Sometimes the 'run as admin' context menu item doesn't show up, so in
those cases you can elevate a command prompt and use that.
