Hi Casper,
I think you'll need to start from as clean an environment as possible
and add items to path until things break again.
For example, from a command shell (start > run > cmd.exe):
{{{
:: clear whole PATH
set path=
:: clear PYTHONPATH, PYTHONHOME
set pythonpath=
set pythonhome=
:: set basic o4w environment
cd /d c:\osgeo4w
set osgeo4w_root=%cd%
path=%osgeo4w_root%\bin
}}}
Now run python and import gdal.
If it works, from the same command shell run each bat in
"osgeo4w\etc\ini" and test the python import again until something fails.
If it doesn't work, something is wrong with the current o4w package
ecosystem and we'll try and dig it out.
If you get through all the ini bat's without error, then the problem
lies somewhere in the host Windows environment. Likely culprits include
things like other python directories or .dll's in PATH, PYTHONPATH or
PYTHONHOME (not necessarily gdal dll's).
let us know how you make out,
matt wilkie

Hi!
I am new to the GDAL world and I’m struggling with installing OSGeo4W
to a working state.
I have downloaded and installed the latest edition OSGeo4W. The
install goes smoothly. I open the OSGeo4W Command shell and enter
Python. I have seen that I can test the basic Python/GDAL binding(?)
by entering
>>> from osgeo import gdal
This results in the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python27\lib\site-packages\osgeo\__init__.py",
line 21,
in <module>
_gdal = swig_import_helper()
File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python27\lib\site-packages\osgeo\__init__.py",
line 17,
in swig_import_helper
_mod = imp.load_module('_gdal', fp, pathname, description)
ImportError: DLL load failed: The operating system cannot run %1.
I have read that this error might indicate that the installed
python/gdal libraries are incompatible, but I’m wondering if my
OSGeo4W installation is obstructed by another installation? The
following three lines are added to my path by the OSGeo4W Command shell:
C:\OSGeo4W\bin
C:\OSGeo4W\\apps\msys\bin
C:\OSGeo4W\\apps\Python27\Scripts
I have searched through my system looking for gdal*.dll, but I have
found none located within any of the folders in my PATH.
What can I do to troubleshoot this problem?
Regards, Casper
