Greetings ....
I'm having a problem trying to install PyGTK ....
Win98_SE
Python 2.3 Enthought Edition
Downloaded the GTK Runtime and PyGTK from ....
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gtk-win/GTK-Runtime-Environment-2.2.4.1.exe?download
http://www.pcpm.ucl.ac.be/~gustin/win32_ports/binaries/pygtk-2.0.0.win32-py2.3.exe
Installed the GTK Runtime first,
added the bin and lib paths
to the Windows path environment variable
via the autoexec.bat file and re-booted ...
Then, installed PyGTK from the downloaded installer
listed above ....
However, attempts to import gtk fail as follows ....
python
Enthought Edition build 1028
Python 2.3 (#46, Aug 11 2003, 09:34:05) [MSC v.1200 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
>>> import gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "K:\PYTHON23\Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gtk\__init__.py", line 43, in ?
from _gtk import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Searching Google I found one other post in French,
that seemed to indicate the exact same ImportError problem,
but I don't recall if the Python or Windows versions
were the same as mine ....
Finding a few other posts indicating import _gtk errors,
although with different error messages, I tried ....
o Whacking leftover versions of libgtk-xxx.dll
in c:/windows/system ....
There was one old file of this type on my system, libgtk-0.dll,
that had been there for a LONG time, even way before
I had a Python installation, but deleting it makes no difference
with the currnent problem ....
o import pygtk
pygtk.require( '2.0' )
import gtk
# no change
This is especially frustrating since I previously had a working installation
of GTK and PyGTK installed on 2003-12-04 and somehow managed
to hose it up, I think with a separate installation of wGlade
which has since been un-installed ....
I've even deleted the original downloaded install files,
spent a couple of hours cleaning out hte Windows registry,
re-downloaded the installs, and tried to install again
without success ....
Any clues as how this import problem might be resolved
would be greatly appreciated ....
