Hi I am trying to install Fipy-2.1 on a Windows XP system. Following the manual, I have installed Python(x,y)-2.6.5.1, pysparse-1.1_rc1.win32-py2.6, and gmsh-2.4.2. No errors are reported when I run the installer for Fipy-2.1 .
However, from the base FiPy directory, when I do the following with ipyhton, I get the following ... In [1]: run setup.py test running test running egg_info writing FiPy.egg-info\PKG-INFO writing top-level names to FiPy.egg-info\top_level.txt writing dependency_links to FiPy.egg-info\dependency_links.txt writing entry points to FiPy.egg-info\entry_points.txt reading manifest file 'FiPy.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' writing manifest file 'FiPy.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' running build_ext Python then crashes with the following message "python.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." Additionally, the same error occurs when i try In [1]: from fipy import * I have looked through the archives, but did not find any solutions to this error. I would appreciate any help! Regards Arvind Ajoy PhD Student, Electrical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Madras python.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.
