I had 4 copies of python in my computer (2 from ArcGIS installation and 2 for 
my own use) before I installed osgeo4w.
It would be much nicer if I can run my python scripts within the IDE (or in the 
python versions I have been using), but I do not know how to do that. 
I am a beginner in liblas myself.
Maybe someone in the forum can suggest a way to do that?

There is a separate liblas installation download you can try:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/libLAS
It is on a previous version of liblas (1.6.0) but it looks for python versions 
from the registry and prompts you which version you would like to install to.
It had worked well for me on reading and writing LAS files until I needed to 
add projection information to the LAS header.

Stanley,

There is a python.exe in c:\OSGeo4W\bin\, however it turns out that both 
C:\Program Files\pythonxy\ and in C:\Python27\ lack any files or folders named 
liblas. So it seems to me that after my second python installation the OSGeo4W 
did not copy any liblas stuff into the python folders.

Would it help to delete the c:\OSGeo4W folder and then run the 
osgeo4w-setup.exe again?

Thanks,

Andrej

Andrej,

Please check if you have a python.exe in c:\OSGeo4W\bin\
If so, try this:
1. Open OSGeo4W shell, then type in
2. c:\OSGeo4W\bin\python.exe <your_script>.py

Hi,

I have a problem with reinstalling liblas in Python and any help would be much 
appreciated.

Since I know next to nothing about compilers, the recipe how to install liblas 
with Python ( http://liblas.org/osgeo4w.html ) was a life-saver for me. However 
I somehow succeeded in ruining my liblas installation and I am unable to 
recreate it, even by following the exact same steps as the first time. Short 
description of the situation:

    1. In MS Windows XP I installed liblas on top of Pythonxy environment ( 
http://code.google.com/p/pythonxy/ ) following the recipe. At this point liblas 
worked perfectly with Python.
    2. Due to some unrelated problems I had to remove Python (using Windows / 
Add and remove programs). Unfortunately, after reinstalling Python and then 
executing liblas command from OSGeo4W shell, Python could not find liblas, 
reporting ImportError: No module named liblas.
    3. I got the same response from Python even after downloading and running 
the OSGeo4W installer again.


Kind regards and big thanks for your help,

Andrej
