After doing a fresh install of Python 2.6.3, I ran pywin32-214.win32-py2.6.exe, downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/
At the end of the install was a dialog box stating that "Postinstall script finished" but with an error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 601, in <module> File "<string>", line 311, in install File "<string>", line 149, in LoadSystemModule ImportError: DLL load failed: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. Googling uncovered a report of an identical error message at: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-win32/2009-July/009336.html with pywin32 build 213 and which stated that this problem had been fixed with build 214. In desperation, I uninstalled Python 2.6.3 and installed Python 2.6.2, but still received the same error message shown above when installing pywin32 on top of Python 2.6.2. I'm running Windows XP SP2 and did a brand new install of Python 2.6.2/2.6.3 -- with the "Just for me" dialog box checked -- in directory E:\tools\Python26 (using python-2.6.3.msi downloaded from http://www.python.org/). Please help. Thanks, /-\ __________________________________________________________________________________ Get more done like never before with Yahoo!7 Mail.
