Basically, idle uses the python executable that idle itself was running with. So try running /Python26/cooper/bin/python -m idlelib.idle or /Python26/cooper/bin/python /Python26/Lib/idlelib/idle.pyw
Also, you might want to install coour without isolation from the test of your python installation - according to the site, easy_install coopr should do it. -- sent from a glowing rectangle On Nov 9, 2010 9:43 AM, "Ranjan" <ranjand2...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, I would request help in the following problem. > > Problem: > > I have installed Python 2.6.5 and then I installed Coopr > (https://software.sandia.gov/trac/coopr/wiki/GettingStarted/Installing) > for optimization related purpose.
