For my Windows XP machine, I downloaded enthon-python2.4-1.0.0.exe and matplotlib-0.87.5.win32-py2.4.exe.  I installed python first (it's version 2.4.3) via the Enthought executable; it installed fine with no errors.  Then matplotlib installed fine with no errors.

I installed the matplotlib_examples_0.87.1.zip examples and tried to run the barchart_demo.py script; here's the error message I got:

RuntimeError: module compiled against version 1000002 of C-API but this version
of numpy is 90907

The import of the numpy version of the nxutils module,
_nsnxutils, failed.  This is is either because numpy was
unavailable when matplotlib was compiled, because a dependency of
_nsnxutils could not be satisfied, or because the build flag for
this module was turned off in setup.py.  If it appears that
_nsnxutils was not built, make sure you have a working copy of
numpy and then re-install matplotlib. Otherwise, the following
traceback gives more details:

Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import

The following shows I can import numpy OK:

--> python

>>> from numpy import *

I would very much like to be able to use matplotlib, as it looks much better suited to my needs than gnuplot.  Any ideas on how to address this problem?
