I had no real problems setting Plucker up on my Windows 2000 machine at
work, but have had a few troubles at home on a Windows 95 machine.

Has anyone done this?  (used Windows 95 with Plucker)

Attempting to run a database "hotsync" from the start menu fails with the
following error message:

Exception ElnOutError im Modul RUNSYNC.EXE bei 0000E518.
I/O-Fehler 103.

I assume this is German, but I am not quite sure what it means.

I think the problem may be with Python, I downloaded and installed Perl 2.1
which appeared to install OK.

The python GUI runs allright.  Running Spider.py from the GUI appears to
work - I get a page telling me what options I should have called it with.
The menu structure is a bit inimidating (the edit menu is about 20 items
long!).  How do I run script from the GUI with command line options?

However, if I try to run PYTHON.EXE, PYTHONW.EXE or W9XOPEN.EXE (with no
arguments) from a "DOS Box" (Windows 95 command prompt) I get the following
errors:

Cannot execute D:\PROGRA~1\PYTHON21\PYTHON.EXE
or,
Cannot execute D:\PROGRA~1\PYTHON21\PYTHONW.EXE
or,
Cannot execute D:\PROGRA~1\PYTHON21\W9XOPEN.EXE

If I double click on PYTHON.EXE nothing appears to happen.

So, does anyone know if this is a problem with Plucker or with Python?

Thanks

Peter
