Hi Gary,
As for the scons version is concerned, I have been getting the same error even with 2.3.0 and hence, decided to step down a bit on version to see it that works.
IMHO, you are right, it might be nothing related to mbcs. I took a look in the files and found that popen.wait doesn't return success code, which inturn, raises IOError(stderr.decode("mbcs")). Any pointers?
Apparently, it points me to "vcvarsall.bat" which is called with arguments amd64. When I run the file from cmd.exe with amd64 as the argument, it seems like working just fine!

Below is the debug information from scons..

OK, try setting the system environment variable SCONS_MSCOMMON_DEBUG=- (that's a dash as the value) before running SCons; it should spit out a bunch of stuff. Whatever the last thing it says it's calling there (should be a Visual Studio bat file) is probably the thing causing the trouble. Looking at the code, it may not be anything to do with multibyte decoding; it may be the bat file subprocess returning an error.

Also I think you may be running a slightly older SCons, given the line numbers in your original post. Make sure you're running 2.3.0 and it still happens there.

What is your locale? Looks like it's trying to decode a multibyte string coming from stderr.

Hello,

In order to get started with scons, I created a simple "hello.c" and a SConstruct file which does this:

env = Environment()hello = Program(["hello.c"])

When I run scons from my folder which contains these files, I get this error:

$ sconsscons: Reading SConscript files ...IOError: : File "E:\scons-test\SConstruct", line 1:

raise IOError(stderr.decode("mbcs"))
I am using windows 7, 64 bit. I have python 2.7 installed (and also python 3.2).
Can anyone point me to fixing this? Any help / pointers are highly appreciated!

Br, Aseem--i must dream, to make my dreams come true!
