Ok, so this is real annoyiing. When i go to debug the above script in Eclipse, i am back to getting that cannot find error again. Could not copy all of the files it could not find, since I do not have an internet connection with my PC, but here are some of them... [code] pydev debugger: CRITICAL WARNING: This version of python seems to be incorrectly compiled (internal generated filenames are not absolute) pydev debugger: The debugger may still function, but it will work slower and may miss breakpoints. pydev debugger: Unable to find the real location of 'C:\Program Files\AutoDesk\Maya2008\bin\python25.zip\threading.py pydev debugger: Unable to find the real location of 'C:\Program Files\AutoDesk\Maya2008\bin\python25.zip\stat.py Also, I found out some things that I was doing wrong. 1. I noticed that mayapy.exe is really picky with which version of python you are suppose to use. You cannot have Python 2.5 or 2.5.4. Nope, must be Python 2.5.1. 2. Once I fixed that, I then noticed that for each script I run, I must change the current working directory to 'C:\...\Maya2008\bin'. So now my script looks like this.... import pydevd; pydevd.settrace() import maya.standalone as ms ms.initialize(name='python') import maya.cmds as cmds results = cmds.polyplane(name = 'myPlane', ch =1, w = 1, cuv = 2) print results[0] [/code] ...but that was not the end of it. When I go to run this script I still get a traceback error, and the really annoying part is the fact that my script works in Python's IDLE. So what I did was, I printed the results of cmds in Python IDLE and it points to... "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\Python\Libs\site-packages" .... and when I run the script in Eclipse it is pointing to somewhere else, I forget where. However, the weird part is that I made sure that C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\Python\libs\site-packages was the last thing listed in my system libraries path. In spite of this, and I am not sure if this would be the correct way of doing this, but I had setup a Run configuration, and entered the above correct path in the Envrioment Tab like so... I set the variable to PYTHONPATH and the value to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\Python\libs\site-packages .... and that fixed that problem, but I am not sure why when I go to debug mode, I get those cannot find errors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
