I have 4 machines that are failing when trying to install various modules
via pyppm. (see below) Note 3 of the 4 have workd fine in the past.
Solutions that don't work:
1) deleting all the py & pyc files listed in the traceback, plus deleting
the ppm directory and pyppm.py/pyc Then running "Repair" from the
installition file. The repair process doesn't replace all files! (pyppm.py)
Where's the reinstall option?
2)Uninstalling & then reinstalling. Waste of time.
What did work:
1)uninstall. Delete the Python20 directory and all the files NOT deleted by
the uninstall. Then reinstall.
I'm hoping someone at ActiveState can come up with a more acceptable
solution.
Thanks,
Don
