Thanks for the reply. I have tried 2. QGIS opens but then complains about sip. This doesn't fix the command line problem.
So I am awaiting for 1. to happen :) As suggested on the OSGeo4W mailing list (http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/ANN-Python-2-7-4-td5048404.html), renaming the python27.dll in windows\system32 (or syswow64) works, but it means ArcGIS wont. -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: Ramon Andiñach [mailto:cust...@westnet.com.au] Sendt: 24. april 2013 12:26 Til: Stott James Emne: Re: [Qgis-developer] OSGeo4W QGIS 1.8 Doesnt Work I think it means that for us there are two options, 1. In a little bit they'll rebuild 1.8 and put it on the installer. 2. Find the python upgrade that just changed and run it back a version. (When you run the update, things that you have installed will say either the new version that it's about to install or Keep if there's nothing to do. If you click on the Keep it will cycle through a few things, one of which should be the last installed version) No guarantees about what will happen though - I'd try 1 first. -ramon.
