o.k., i've now installed SP3 on Win2K and reinstalled ActivePython
2.2.2-224, but the problem persists.

i thought this might have something to do with the fact that i have phpGTK
installed also, but Tkinter's working, it's just the PythonWin IDE that
isn't.

i like to use the PythonWin IDE for non-gui python scripting, so if anyone
has a clue what's going on here, i'm all ears.

thanks,

tom

Subject: Problems - ActivePython 2.2.2-224 on Win2K (No SP)


hi,

i just installed ActivePython-2.2.2-224 on Windows 2000 (no Service Pack).
don't think it matters, but i'm running a multi-boot system and Python has
been installed on my (win2k) partition 'H:\' instead of 'C:\'.

Python works, but not the PythonWin IDE.  as soon as i open up the PythonWin
IDE i get a popup window labelled 'Traceback when executing InitInstance
handler'.  the text inside this popup is as follows:

  File
"H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\framework\intpyapp.py", line
163, in InitInstance
    import interact
  File
"H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\framework\interact.py", line
26, in ?
    import winout
  File "H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\framework\winout.py",
line 228, in ?
    import pywin.scintilla.view
  File "H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\view.py",
line 16, in ?
    import bindings
  File
"H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\bindings.py", line
6, in ?
    import keycodes
  File
"H:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\Pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\keycodes.py", line
25, in ?
    _better_names = [
exceptions.AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'VK_RETURN'

please note that i've tried starting the ActivePython installer package and
running the 'Repair' option, as well as completely uninstalling ActivePython
and then reinstalling it (including deleting all Python registry items
before reinstalling), but it just ain't workin'.  i hope noone's going to
suggest that i install a Win2k Service Pack...i'd like to avoid this, since
my system's running fine as it is.

any help is greatly appreciated...oh, yeah - i'm 99% sure my ActivePython
installer package is not damaged, 'cause it's the same installation file
i've used to successfully install ActivePython on another Win2K computer.

thanks,

tom
