New question #181202 on Sikuli:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/181202

I'm trying to right some code that will launch firefox on windows machines.  On 64-bit windows, the path to firefox is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe", but on 32-bit windows it's  "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" (different names for 'Program Files' directory).

So I wrote something like this:

path32 = "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"
path64 = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"

try:
    App.open(path32)
except:
    App.open(path64)

When I run this on a 64-bit machine, sikuli reports an error when it attempts the try statement:

[error] App.open failed: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe not found.

However, it skips straight over the except statement and continues as if nothing had happened. Am I doing something wrong here?  I'm sure I could use another approach to check the path before attempting to open, but it seems as if this approach should work as well.

Thank you for your time,

Paul
