7 [G2] Publishxp registry key changed for Vista - ID: 1668645
Last Update: Comment added ( andy_st )

The Web Publishing Wizard exists in Windows VIsta, but they renamed it and
changed the required registry keys.

See:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/61112

We need to either auto-detect Windows Vista vs Windows XP, or we need to
offer 2 registry downloads with a short description.

Fixed in r15958 (branch DEV_2_3) will be part of Gallery 2.3 and is
available through DP in the experimental repository as soon as G2.2 has
been released.

This will be fixed after G2.2.
Thus a Vista compatible publishxp module will be available after G2.2
through downloadable plugins with the experimental repository.

Suggested solution:

1. Detect Windows version based on user-agent string (Windows NT 6.0),
see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent (has an extensive list)

2. On the download registry file page, always offer download links for
both (Windows Vista and Windows XP), but suggest the auto-detected version
, e.g.
"You seem to be using Windows Vista"
"Download [install_registry.reg] (Windows Vista)"
"Download [install_registry.reg] (Windows XP, Windows 2000 and other
Windows versions)"
