dunno if you were trying to send screenshots or something, that doesn't 
work here.


Try:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/idle.html#startup-failure

Hint: you usually named a file you were working on the same as something 
IDLE uses, that's the usual cause these days.

Hi.

It's important to include the full text of whatever error messages you're
getting.

If you can, you should also include your code, or better: include an
http://sscce.org/

Can you start the python interpreter from bash, powershell or cmd.exe? If
not, please again include the full text of any error messages you get.

BTW, it's important to cut and paste TEXT - don't just send screenshots.

Good luck.

Subprocess Connection error

2021-11-23 Thread nuu.05.05
   Hello,

    

   I have been 3.8.10 version of python until I ran the code for tkinter and
   I started getting subprocess connection error. After this I haven’t been
   able to open python for use as I get this error upon startup.

    

   Please help resolve the matter soon.

    

   Best regards,

   Nuha

Which is probably a bad thing to do, because there is a built-in
module called "types" that this will shadow. If IDLE happens to
use that module, bad things could happen.

Have you tried using a different name, such as "my_types.py"?

I believe I included every legitimate answer on stackoverflow, including 
that post, in the doc section linked below.

It actually says, for 3.8+,

[some things to try]

Python installation issues occasionally stop IDLE: multiple versions can 
clash, or a single installation might need admin access. If one [cannot] 
undo the clash, or cannot or does not want to run as admin, it might be 
easiest to completely remove Python and start over.


[more things to try].

I should fix the type and move this down to the bottom as a last resort.



I did this and it did the same thing again. It also said something about it
is because of the antivirus software. I tried installing python on a
different computer and it happened at the exact same place in the exercises
in the book. I am far from being a computer whiz, just thought it would be
fun to learn some simple coding. Any help would be appreciated. One more
thing, the book says to save it as "types.py".


I'm glad you added that.  Naming files after stdlib modules is a bad 
idea and is covered by the the first item in the doc.


"A common cause of failure is a user-written file with the same name as 
a standard library module, such as random.py and tkinter.py. When such a 
file is located in the same directory as a file that is about to be run, 
IDLE cannot import the stdlib file. The current fix is to rename the 
user file."


types.py is a standard library file, so try a different name and see if 
this is the problem.
