[New-bugs-announce] [issue1884] msilib.SetProperty(msilib.PID_CODEPAGE, '1252') raises 0x65d = type mismatch

[Jim Wilson]

New submission from Jim Wilson:

I believe Codepage (a summary property which must be set *before* any
other string value), is a string.  Documentation admits it might also be
an integer, but it doesn't matter.  Both foo.SetProperty(PID_CODEPAGE,
'1252') and foo.SetProperty(PID_CODEPAGE, 1252) raise "unknown error 65d".

I believe 0x65d  (1629d)  to be ERROR_DATATYPE_MISMATCH.
