Hi Daryl,
Thanks for the reply.
I already copied the files from PyMod-2.7.2/Lib. I also was able to run the
python with or without the -S flag.
Apparently I wasn't running python from the right directory. (Beginners
problems...)
Thanks

Hello Wissam,
There are a few things to check that are not clearly stated in the
PythonReadMe.txt file.
Make sure that you are using the os.py, ntpath.py, pydoc.py, and site.py files
from PyMod-2.7.2/Lib, instead of the versions from Python-2.7.2/Lib.
If you start Python with the -S option, it will skip the above files and should
go directly to the interactive prompt. If it does, you will be able to exit by
typing
>>> import sys
>>> sys.exit
Also, make sure that you start Python from a directory on the same volume that
Python.efi and the Python library are on. If running the Shell on real
hardware, this will be something like fs0:.
>From the information you quoted, Python was able to find os.py. I don't know
>what the ") lost sys.stderr" indicates, other than (hopefully) a cut-and-paste
>error or something is horribly wrong somewhere. If you look in the Python

>Every module that Python was able to successfully import will be indicated by

Please let me know the outcome of copying the files from PyMod-2.7.2/Lib and
also of starting Python with the -S option. Any diagnostic messages you can
provide, especially the debug messages that are sent out of the serial port,
would also be useful.
Best of Luck,
Daryl McDaniel

Subject: [edk2] help with python in uefi shell
Hi,
I'm new to UEFI, so any help will be great.
I'm trying to run a simple "hello world" python script in the uefi shell.
I followed the instructions in
"edk2/AppPkg/Applications/Python/PythonReadMe.txt" to setup python.
When I ran the Python.efi from I got this error:
ImportError: No module named site
close failed in file object destruction:
sys.excepthook is missing
) lost sys.stderr
Print_file_and_lineExit status code: Unsupported
Any idea how can I fix this ??
Thanks
Regards,
Wissam
