My current hypothesis for the hangs is that there is some sort of bad interaction between libraries mnemosyne uses (database library, installer library, ...) and/or a third party program running on people's computer (Freecommander, ...)
To figure out if removing the installer library from the mix helps, I here provide instructions for an alternate way of installing Mnemosyne. Rather than having a separate one-click install, the idea is to install Mnemosyne as a package in the system's Python installation. Run all of the following installers: http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/python-2.7.3.msi http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Downloads/PyQt4/PyQt-Py2.7-x86-gpl-4.9.4-1.exe http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.6.2/numpy-1.6.2-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/files/matplotlib/matplotlib-1.1.1/matplotlib-1.1.1.win32-py2.7.exe/download http://download.cherrypy.org/cherrypy/3.2.2/CherryPy-3.2.2.win32.exe http://users.ugent.be/~pbienst/pub/Mnemosyne-2.0.1-test2.python-install.exe Then, run C:\Python2.7\Scripts\mnemosyne and choose 'pythonw' to execute that script. As extra benefit, Mnemosyne might start a little bit faster, and Windows power users can now also call libmnemosyne's functions from their python scripts, just as they can do under Linux. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
