Deborah,

I've done quite a bit of work with Python and ArcGIS but have not run into this issue and have noticed a couple of things in the ArcGIS install, namely that ESRI does not to a full install of Python. It appears that the interpreter commandline help is not installed as well as the "this" module. If you haven't imported this module in the python interactive window you should give it a try.

On all my ArcGIS installs I bypass the instal of Python 2.1 and install the latest version of Python and PythonWin. After those installs you need to make a couple of registry edits (info on this is avaiable on the ERSI support site) so that ArcGIS recognizes the Python install.

If you can include the code that causes the issue I may ba able to provide some more help.

Cheers,

kevin

Subject: [python-win32] Problems running Python 2.1 and ArcView 9.1
Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 10:16:14 -0800 (PST)

Hello all,

I'm hoping some of you may be able to help me since
I'm getting nowhere with ESRI tech support on this
matter.

I was trying to run very simple scripts in Python 2.1
(e.g., create a folder) but Python would crash every
time. Someone at ESRI suggested I add the line:

gp.SetProduct("ArcView")

to one of my scripts and run it. It worked, except
that now I am unable to use any of the tools in
ArcToolbox that are scripts. If I try running one of
them, Pythonwin will open the script for that
particular tool and it hangs. Even if it finishes
running, no output is created.

Does anybody have a suggestion on how to fix this? I
have done a complete uninstall of both Python and
ArcView, deleted every sort of registry, but the
problem persists...

Thanks!

Deborah
