Thanks for the reply David, but I finally figured out the problem! Python wasn't uninstalling/installing properly so I had to uninstall, delete any sign of it from the registry, and then install again - and now it all works! BTW, I still don't see a listing for PYTHONPATH with the command you listed below... Is that something I should be worried about? I'm just glad the everything if finally working now ;-).
Thanks to everyone for your help!

Hi Tina,
Usually an installation of Python will add its directory to the environment variable %PYTHONPATH%. Open a command window:
<WinKey>+R
cmd /k <enter>
set | find "PATH"
you should see a listing for PYTHONPATH there. Make sure this points to your actual installed location for Python (usually c:\python24). If not, try:
set pythonpath=%PYTHONPATH%;c:\actual_python_location\
Then reboot. Windows can't do anything without a reboot.
py.dll is the dll for the Thomas Grill's external and you need to have its full exact path specified in Pd's Path... options. It fails to load if it can't find Python24.dll, but pointing Pd directly to Python24 doesn't help...
Hope that helps you!
David
this lists your environment variables. Do you see a line On 3/9/06, Tina Shah surreal8@hotmail.com wrote:
Hi, Yea, I have Python installed correctly, I had started the tutorials and was running the interpreter... I added -verbose to the startup flags,
but
still got the same message: tried C:\Program Files\pd\bin\py.dll and failed tried C:\Program Files\pd\extra\py.dll and succeeded C:\Program Files\pd\extra\py.dll: couldn't load py: can't load library
all I have now to load is GEM and py. Should I be pointing to the python24.dll?

hi Tina, you probably don't have to worry about this PYTHONPATH command. great that you finally managed to sort all this out. could you describe a little bit more how and why you got this pb of installation/uninstallation of Python?
best regards, vincent
I'm not completely sure, but I uninstalled a previous version of Python, and then installed the newer version, but the newer version wasn't installing all files in proper locations I think because the previous uninstall didn't uninstall correctly. So I uninstalled again, and then manually deleted any files that had to do with Python, and then installed again and everything worked fine...

btw, just wanted to also mention that python was working properly for me, like i said before i was doing tutorials, running the interpreter, etc., even though some of the files were installing in the wrong locations... wierd, but that's why i didn't think anything was wrong with my python installation...
