New submission from ldehkire <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: IDLE will not start. I have installed python via the python-2.6-macosx.dmg image found on http://www.python.org/download/. I didn't find any resolutions in bugs.python.org, but did note that you are having some trouble with tk (as discussed in other bugs). I haven't tried much to troubleshoot the issue yet other than note that the 2.5 version of IDLE does start. Below is some info on the problem:
I see the following in my logs every time I try and start IDLE: Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: Traceback (most recent call last): Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: File "/Applications/Python 2.6/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlemain.py", line 6, in <module> Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: from idlelib.PyShell import main Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 14, in <module> Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: import macosxSupport Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/idlelib/macosxSupport.py", line 6, in <module> Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: import Tkinter Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 39, in <module> Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so, 2): Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Versions/8.5/Tcl Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos [0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]: Reason: image not found Oct 23 07:15:03 kaos com.apple.launchd[87] ([0x0-0x30030].org.python.IDLE[333]): Exited with exit code: 1 I looked, and found the following in the referenced directory: -rwxrwxr-x 1 root admin 225936 Oct 1 17:49 _tkinter.so System info: MacBook Pro, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, Mac OS X 10.5.5 ---------- components: IDLE messages: 75144 nosy: ldehkire severity: normal status: open title: IDLE will not start. type: crash versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4187> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
