Hi All, Background =================== I have installed Python for windows today from the python web site .I also installed pySerial using the Windows installer from the sourceforge web site..... Both installs use the default directories.
Phyton version : Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 pySerial 2.4 July 6th Problem : Errors Screen output ============================ >>> import serial Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> import serial File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial\__init__.py", line 18, in <module> from serialwin32 import * File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial\serialwin32.py", line 9, in <module> import win32file # The base COM port and file IO functions. ImportError: No module named win32file >>> So it looks like Python can not see some of the modules Here's the active paths >>> print sys.path ['C:\\Python25\\Lib\\idlelib', 'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\python25.zip', 'C:\\Python25\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python25\\lib', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\Python25', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\site-packages'] >>> It seems that C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial needs to be added to the PYTHONPATH QUESTION ============= Q1. How do I add C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\serial to the PYTHONPATH ? Q2. How do I check that I have installed pySerial corretly (using the Windows installer) Thanks in advance Joe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
