Hi - I'm getting started with Python and am getting ImportError
trouble with the first step of the very simple tutorial for web.py.
I'm suspecting that the fact that I have two installations of Python -
one that my Mac came with and one that I installed from
python-2.6.2-macosx2009-04-16.dmg which I got from
python.org/download/ - might be the problem.
that shouldn't be a problem, but you do need to make sure you are
running the one you think you are. "which python" will help you know if
you PATH is set right.
Anyway, I'd really be happier if I could wipe all python stuff -
including things like easy_install - from my machine so I can just
start over.
Well, you don't want to wipe the Apple-supplied one.
You can get rid of the python.org one be deleting:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/
and:
/Applications/MacPython 2.6/
you may need to clean up your PATH in .bash_profile.
If you've set any environment variable, like PYTHONPATH, you need to
make sure you clear those in .bash_profile, etc.
and I guess delete .pydistutils.cfg
