[gdal-dev] How to fix path for gdal .py scripts in Anaconda-Windows?

[Matt.Wilkie at yukon.ca]

Also see OSGEO4W make-bat-for-py.bat<https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/17>. Old but still works. ;-)

```
for %%g in (*.py) do (
  echo @python "%%~dpnxg" %%* > %%~ng.bat
  )
```

You should be able to  insert  settings if needed for environment variables (I didn’t test this particular formulation):

```
@echo off
for %%g in (*.py) do (
   @echo @python "%%~dpnxg" %%*
   if not exist %%~ng.bat (
      echo “set PYTHONHOME=C:\PROGRA~1\QGIS32~1.2\apps\Python39” > %%~ng.bat
      echo “set PYTHONUTF8=1” >> %%~ng.bat
      echo @python "%%~dpnxg" %%*  >> %%~ng.bat
   )
```

Hi,

I had the same problem, here's my solution :

checking that PYTHONPATH or PYTHONHOME are not defined to an unexpected value will be sufficient
It was something of the sorts. The paths were actually fine, but the "default windows app" is activated when calling a file with a .py extension. So calling ogrmerge.py on the terminal would activate the default app instead of the activated python =/
Thanks!

I would have suggested to uninstall the offending proprietary software :-), but perhaps checking that PYTHONPATH or PYTHONHOME are not defined to an unexpected value will be sufficient

## Expected behavior and actual behavior.

I installed gdal on a Windows environment using anaconda and tried using one of the .py scripts (e.g., ogrmerge.py). I expected the script to make use of the gdal installed in such an environment, but it seems that the script finds another gdal installation (screenshot below), thus throwing an error. My question seems to be related to the one in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69328298/cannot-run-a-py-which-requires-a-gdal-module-in-anaconda-prompt-nor-in-command, apparently unsolved. I was wondering what is the correct approach to make sure gdal scripts find the correct gdal?

## Steps to reproduce the problem.
create a conda environment:
conda create -n test1 gdal
activate the environment
conda activate test1
call a gdal .py script
ogrmerge.py

In my case, that throws an error apparently because the script uses another gdal installation:
[cid:part1.66CDEAD4.863B431E at spatialys.com]

## Operating system

Windows 10 Pro - 20H2 version

## GDAL version and provenance

GDAL==3.0.2
GDAL==3.4.0

Thank you!
Rafael
