Hi I started to develop software using Pythonwin (Python 1.5.2 and win32all-136), because a vendor offers a DLL called ael.dll to be used with Python to connect to their server. Now to my problem: After executing the commands: import ael ael.connect('5100@schupags03','USER','password') I get the following error when opening <Tools><Browse PythonPath>: >>> Failed to execute command: from pywin.tools import browseProjects;browseProjects.Browse() Traceback (innermost last): File "C:\Programme\Python\Pythonwin\pywin\framework\toolmenu.py", line 103, in HandleToolCommand exec "%s\n" % pyCmd File "<string>", line 1, in ? File "C:\Programme\Python\Pythonwin\pywin\tools\browseProjects.py", line 247, in DockablePathBrowser bar = pywin.docking.DockingBar.DockingBar() AttributeError: docking I get similar error messages for most of the menu items. If I run such a program in the debug mode, the debugger goes completely crazy after executing the ael.connect successfully, it seems to loop and prints out a lot of AttributeErrors: debugger. Unfortunately it would not help to send you the ael.dll since you need a server to connect to and the problem doesn't occur before the ael.connect is successfully executed, i.e. if I give a wrong password I don't have the problem. Any idea what the problem could cause?
