[issue16561] bdist_wininst installers don't use UAC, then crash

[Christian Boos]

Christian Boos added the comment:

The reason of the crash is pretty trivial, there's no check for success of the creation of the installation logfile. Trapping this and aborting (with a hint to use "Run as administrator") would be enough to fix the issue, I think.
