Yeah. That's normal because you don't have these compressors installed. This should be harmless, though. > Every time (except once) I've run the test suite, the test_all() suite > is generating a hard crash (an error box that reads 'The instruction at > <hex location> referenced memory at <different hex location>. The memory > could not be "read".') and after this python is force-closed by the OS. Mmmm. That's a bizarre behaviour; normally, in case of "the memory could be not read" errors, those typically appear much earlier, indicating that a wrong DLL was found in the PATH. By looking at your description, the versions of HDF5 and zlib DLLs seems fine. To say the truth, I don't really know what's going on in your system. Can you try with a the latest version of binaries: http://www.pytables.org/download/preliminary/tables-2.0-of20070706.win32-py2.4.exe http://www.pytables.org/download/preliminary/tables-2.0-of20070706.win32-py2.5.exe and tell me how they behave?
