Hi Stan, Stan West wrote: Same here, I had no problem with the RC, but frankly did very little work with it.From: Werner F. Bruhin [mailto:werner.bru...@free.fr] Sent: Friday, October 23, 2009 07:31 I have both "p" and "r" of msvcX71.dll.My Python installation is that of Python(x,y) 2.1.17, which includes the same version of Python as yours, and I'm using a build of matplotlib from SVN, although I previously used version 0.99.0 without DLL trouble. On my machine, I found msvcp71.dll in several directories under C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages (including site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx), in C:\Windows\System32, and in several locations under C:\Program Files, but not in C:\Python25. There is a similarly-named msvcr71.dll in C:\Python25. No idea, I see it when I try to run barchart_demo.py (MPL example) which uses pyplot.I'm wondering whether and how msvcp71.dll is related to the traceback to the _path module, because the _path module comprises a .pyd (~= .dll) file. You might start Python, enter "from matplotlib._path import affine_transform", and see whether the import is successful. I get this error:  Free translation: can't start program as MSVCP71.dll is missing.

If I change the path (i.e. change the start in folder for the short cut which starts Boa - which I use in turn to run the script) the script runs but no output nor no errors are shown. Just tried to run the barchart_demo.py in Python Shell (idle) and I see the same exception as I see in Boa. If I do this import in the shell:Are you able to run other matplotlib examples? Can you open a figure window? What backend are you using, and does the problem occur with other matplotlib backends, both GUI and non-GUI? import matplotlib.pyplot as plt I get an error window "Unhandled exception" which allows to Abort, Retry, Ignore. It does not provide any useful information and I can't find any log file either. I normally use the "WXAgg" backend, if I run a small sample using this I get the window error that python.exe has stopped working - again without any exception or log file, only option is "close the program", I let it try and find a solution on the web (instead of cancel it) but without anything. I can run wxPython applications without problem, i.e. the IDE Boa or my own shareware as long as the matplotlib code is not been executed, if I try to bring up the frame with it then I get the python.exe has stopped error or it just hangs. Searching on the web I found this thread which is similar but it is with Python 2.6. http://www.nabble.com/matplotlib._path-failed-on-windows-build-for-Python-2.6-td22963286.html I might try and do a Py 2.6.3 install and see if I get this to work - don't really want to move to 2.6 yet. If I can provide anything else which might help to find what is happening, please do not hesitate to ask (only thing I can't do is compile it here as I don't know C++ at all. Werner |
