Hi folks, I'm new to Jython - not to Python. The good thing about Python is that there are many packages available which can be installed easily by means of setuptools. Today I installed Jython, because I'm thinking of integrating some Python code into a web application which will be hosted on a web server with Tomcat behind it plus Jython.
I found this webpage and followed the instructions about installing setuptools: http://www.jython.org/jythonbook/en/1.0/appendixA.html Unfortunately, it did not work for me. These are the errors I got: C:\TEMP\jython>java -jar D:\usr\lib\jython25\jython.jar ez_setup.py Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.5/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg Traceback (most recent call last): File "ez_setup.py", line 278, in <module> main(sys.argv[1:]) File "ez_setup.py", line 212, in main from setuptools.command.easy_install import main File "C:\TEMP\jython\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg\setuptools \__init__.py", line 2, in <module> File "C:\TEMP\jython\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg\setuptools \extension.py", line 2, in <module> File "C:\TEMP\jython\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg\setuptools \dist.py", line 5, in <module> File "C:\TEMP\jython\setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg\setuptools\command \install.py", line 2, in <module> File "D:\usr\lib\jython25\Lib\distutils\command\install.py", line 15, in <module> from distutils.sysconfig import get_config_vars File "D:\usr\lib\jython25\Lib\distutils\sysconfig.py", line 29, in <module> argv0_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(sys.executable)) File "D:\usr\lib\jython25\Lib\ntpath.py", line 492, in abspath if not isabs(path): File "D:\usr\lib\jython25\Lib\ntpath.py", line 55, in isabs s = splitdrive(s)[1] File "D:\usr\lib\jython25\Lib\ntpath.py", line 121, in splitdrive if p[1:2] == ':': TypeError: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable I'm suspecting the installation failed because I did not apply certain settings, but I don't even know how to go about that! Any help will be appreciated. As you'll understand I'm using Windows XP ;-) Kind regards ... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
