I have a system that has Python(x,y)-2.6.6.2.exe installed. When running the script "file.py" the following error occurs:
/Traceback (most recent call last): File "file.py", line xx, in <module> import <something> File "includes\something.py", line 31, in <module> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\pyplot.py", line 95, in <module> new_figure_manager, draw_if_interactive, show = pylab_setup() File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\__init__.py", line 25, in pylab_setup globals(),locals(),[backend_name]) File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\backend_qt4agg.py", line 12, in <module> from backend_qt4 import QtCore, QtGui, FigureManagerQT, FigureCanvasQT,\ File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\backend_qt4.py", line 18, in <module> import matplotlib.backends.qt4_editor.figureoptions as figureoptions File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\qt4_editor\figureoptions.py", line 11, in <module> import matplotlib.backends.qt4_editor.formlayout as formlayout File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\qt4_editor\formlayout.py", line 51, in <module> raise ImportError, "Warning: formlayout requires PyQt4 >v4.3" ImportError: Warning: formlayout requires PyQt4 >v4.3 / I think this error message is not related with the real problem, since this is just an hardcoded string that is displayed in case the import fails (formlayout.py): /try: from PyQt4.QtGui import QFormLayout except ImportError: raise ImportError, "Warning: formlayout requires PyQt4 >v4.3"/ If I remove this error message the new error message is that he cannot find the DLL. If I install matplotlib-1.0.1.win32-py2.6.exe then this error does not occur anymore. Could anyone please explain me what is the difference when the matplotlib is installed via Python(x,y) or when it is installed separately on top of Python(x,y)? I saw that there are a few differences on User and System Environment variable PATH, but I've tried different combinations and was not able to get rid of this error when the system does not have the matplotlib-1.0.1.win32-py2.6.exe installed. Thank you in advance for your support.
