[Tutor] Problem with Winpdb.
Can anyone point me to what the problem may be with running Winpdb?
I am running Win98, unfortunately, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98;
en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7.
I have python 2.4, Python 2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 09:34:21) [MSC v.1310
32 bit (Intel)] on win32.
I have Winpdb, WINPDB_VERSION = "WINPDB_1_0_4".
I have Crypto, print Crypto.__version__
2.0.1.
I have wxPython, print wxPython.__version__
2.6.1.0.
I have thread, Directory of
C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\mfc
THREAD PY541 09-14-05 11:53a thread.py
THREAD PYC 1,140 09-14-05 11:53a thread.pyc
THREAD PYO 1,140 09-14-05 11:53a thread.pyo
I seem to be able to execute _rpdb2.py in a MS-DOS command window by
using the following,
..\python _rpdb2.py, while in the \python24\scripts directory.
However, when I try,
..\python _winpdb.py, from the same directory, I get the following
traceback.
Traceback (most recent call last):

app_data = os.environ['APPDATA']
File "C:\PYTHON24\lib\os.py", line 422, in __getitem__
return self.data[key.upper()]
KeyError: 'APPDATA'
Thanks in advance for any help,

winpdb seems to be looking for an environment variable (APPDATA) that is not supported on Win 98. As a workaround you could replace line 606 in C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\winpdb.py which says
if os.name == 'nt':
with
if os.name == 'nt' and os.environ.has_key('APPDATA'):
This will make winpdb create its settings file in the current directory with the name winpdb_settings.cfg.
Reporting this as a bug on SourceForge is also a good idea.

Thanks Kent,
Worked like a chanp! Thanks so much for the help.
I will report the "bug" to SourceForge once they send me an account login.

I have spent quite a bit of time looking at TurboGears. I have not used it in any production sense. Recently, there has developed a new TurboGears app which you may not have run across yet, but is very interesting in itself. It's called Catwalk. http://www.checkandshare.com/catwalk/download.html I have hacked it to give it access to other databases I have stored in MySQL and have started a generic version of it to display the MySQL database itself. Seems very cool.
