Hi, i am trying to install plone on win xp sp3 with Plone-3.1.7.exe, but getting error: 'pythonw.exe entry point' this error occures when i clicked start > programs > plone > plone, so i cannot see plone controller window.
however, plone runs without error from start > programs > plone > development > plone debug and i can see Plone site with http://localhost/ on internet explorer 7. i found an error description at wxApp.log as: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\Plone 3\XController\wxApp.py", line 91, in ? respawn_sub() File "C:\Program Files\Plone 3\XController\wxApp.py", line 63, in respawn_sub import pythoncom File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythoncom.py", line 3, in ? pywintypes.__import_pywin32_system_module__("pythoncom", globals()) File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 93, in __import_pywin32_system_module__ raise ImportError, \ ImportError: No system module 'pythoncom' (pythoncom24.dll) on my machine, ESRI ArcGIS 9.2 is also installed and uses python 2.4.1 as scripting language and pythonwin pywin32-207.win32-py2.4.exe. these versions should not be changed. so, i have separate python installation at C:\Python24 (and also C:\Python25, python 2.5.2 has also pythonwin). it seems from the log error that ESRI python and plone python confused, because C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib should belong to ESRI. Plone has his own python and pythonw at C:\Program Files\Plone 3\Python NEXT thing i did: i uninstalled python24 and plone, and then reinstall the plone. the error gone and now i can see the plone controller window. everything working well. how can i use both python (ESRI python 2.4.1 and Plone python 2.4.4) at the same machine? could you help me, please? i mean that not running plone controller window is not big deal but will this error be a problem in the future if i uses both python at the same time. thanks for help. note: there is no pythonpath or pythonhome variable and no python path definition for path variable for this user. -- Regards, Volkan Osman Kepoglu PhD Candidate GGIT Department in METU, Ankara, Turkey.
