Hi ! No answer on the list? Same problem here: "LoadBarState failed (with win32 exception!)"
Any ideas where this problem might originate from? If not: What can I do to further specify the problem? Reinstalling Python 2.3.4 and Pythonwin build 203 didn't solve the problem. thx a lot in advance! Andreas --- [python-win32] Damaged Pythonwin installation Greg Chapman glc at well.com Thu Jan 1 14:27:22 EST 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I seem to have done something which has broken Pythonwin on one of my machines. It's using win32all build 163 and Python 2.3.2 (the OS is Windows 2000). The most immediate symptom is that things seem very sluggish inside Pythonwin. However there are other more spectacular problems. For example, I just started Pythonwin, created a new script document with the line "print 'hello'", and saved it as temp.py. I then pressed F11 twice. This first loads the debugger (very slowly) and then results in these error messages in the interactive window when the debugger attempts to step into winout.py: LoadBarState failed - LoadBarState failed (with win32 exception!) < snip traceback > win32ui: LoadFrame failed win32ui: CreateNewFrame() virtual handler (<bound method SyntEditTemplate.CreateNewFrame of <pywin.framework.editor.coloreditor.SyntEditTemplate instance at 0x01616A30>>) raised an exception TypeError: PyCTemplate::CreateNewFrame must return a PyCFrameWnd object. Whatever the error was, it had some global effects. After the error, my Windows Start Menu was hosed (it only had the four items which are normally above the top separator). Also, notepad.exe started after the error comes up without a menu bar. Everything is back to normal after a reboot. In case it's important, I had a newer version of scintilla.dll than the one which comes with Pythonwin in a directory on the system PATH (but not in python's sys.path). Several reboots ago I renamed the dll in case Pythonwin was somehow finding it instead of its own version, but that didn't seem to make any difference. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling win32all; unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. Anybody have any ideas on what's gone wrong here?
