OK, this issue has been resolved. There was a problem in that Python or Mapnik wasn't regognising the %PATH% variable, and for some reason the "user" path variable had to be set via Control Panel, System, Environment Variables, User Variables, to the same as the path variable as described in the Windows installation wiki. The wiki has been updated to reflect this, and there is a ticket in to investigate this.

I did as per the Windows install instructions on the wiki, but get a "Can't find mapnik.dll" error when type "from mapnik import *" in Python. but I'm not sure whether the directory should be C:\mapnik-5_0_1 or C:\mapnik-5_0_0 as it says in the wiki? I read that the path to the installation directory was hard-coded somewhere. Does anyone know what the path should be for each version? I have tried many different combinations of %path% variables and installation directories, but to no avail. I also tried installing the 5_0_0 package but got similar errors. I am using Active Python 2.5. I also have Cygwin, with a Python package installed if that makes a difference. Can anyone help?
