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 ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Churm To: a Sent: Saturday, January 04, 2003 8:07 AM 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 _______________________________________________ ActivePython mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs Other options: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/ActivePython
