Hi! I have a problem when installing the pywin32-217.win-amd64-py2.6.exe (from Source Forge) when I installed python 2.6 using the python-2.6.amd64.msi. I got the problem on SQL Server 8 R2 and Windows 7 Ultimate. When I run the pywin installer it halts in the post installer section and in Swedish informs me that it can't find a module as: >>>> Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 612, in <module> File "<string>", line 322, in install File "<string>", line 160, in LoadSystemModule ImportError: DLL load failed: Det går inte att hitta den angivna modulen. <<<<<<<<<< I managed on the server installation to copy the pythoncom26.dll, pythoncomloader26.dll and pywintypes26.dll to the standard DLL's directory. Adding some path so that win32\lib\pywintypes.py is found I manage to import, for example Dispatch via: >>>import pywintypes >>>from win32com.client import Dispatch However the import will fail if I omitt the pywintypes import ???
On 32-bit system everything works perfect (atleast on a XP and SQL Server 2003). And I never had any problem with python 2.5. Any idea? PS! I have to use Python 2.6 because I support the SunGard FRONT ARENA system which have python built in since 1996 and now they switch from 2.5 -> 2.6. /Fredrik Kant -- View this message in context: http://python.6.n6.nabble.com/win32com-installation-problem-X64-tp4988902.html Sent from the Python - python-win32 mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
