Hi, I am developing a msgina replacement.
I am at the point where I have the whole Gina API handled in python (a dll written in C, calling methods of a python object). My problem is that somehow my program cannot import pywin32 modules: Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: File "c:\teflogon\system_nt.py", line 4, in <module> Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: import pywintypes Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 124, in <module> Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: __import_pywin32_system_module__("pywintypes", globals()) Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 64, in __import_pywin32_system_module__ Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: import _win32sysloader Jan 31 12:12:41 p11 pygina: callproxy.caller: ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found I did a check and replaced the failing method with execution of python.exe running the same code: if __name__ != '__main__': subprocess.call( [r'c:\python26\python.exe', r'c:\teflogon\tefgina.py', pMessage], ) And pywintypes gets imported fine there. My dll is built using mingw, like this: i586-mingw32msvc-gcc -L./lib -shared -Wl,--kill-at pygina.o -o pygina.dll -lpython26 I thought it had something to do with msvcr90.dll, so I've tried the following: 1. Adding -lmsvcr90 at the end of the linking command 2. Including a manifest in the dll: $ cat pygina.dll.manifest <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> <security> <requestedPrivileges> <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel> </requestedPrivileges> </security> </trustInfo> <dependency> <dependentAssembly> <assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.VC90.CRT" version="9.0.21022.8" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"></assemblyIdentity> </dependentAssembly> </dependency> $ grep manifest pygina.rc.in 2 RT_MANIFEST pygina.dll.manifest $ But it did not change a thing. So the question is - why can python.exe load pywin32 modules and my dll cannot? I have been stuck with this for a couple of days now and any pointers would be great :). Thanks, Filip Zyzniewski Tefnet
