I've had a similar experience. Out of the box binaries don't work unless included python.exe is used. A simple recompile of the code using VS C# express solved this.
Also, attached is a slightly modified version of clrmodule.il that allows you to load clr.pyd and Python.Runtime.dll from any directory( as long as it's in pythonpath) Maksim ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Feihong Hsu Sent: Monday, October 08, 2007 12:43 PM To: Paul Harter; pythondotnet@python.org Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Python.NET] python 2.5 Hi, I ran into exactly the same problem as you but I did manage to solve it by recompiling the entire project in visual c# express. Unfortunately, I don't recall exactly what I did and I don't have my laptop handy right now, but I can find out later. In the meantime, you can try the recompile, and, to modify an existing installation, copy the .pyd file to C:\Python25\DLLs\ and the .dll file to C:\Python25\. Then it should "just work".

When we use the python.exe which is part of the pre-built binaries "import clr" can execute without a problem. However trying to use an existing python.exe (e.g. the standard installed one, but we also need to use it embedded) we always get the following error: ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initclr) What magic does the included python.exe perform, or what are we doing wrong in our installation. We have tried: * copying Python.runtime.dll and clr.pyd to the python install path (where python.exe lives), or both to the DLLs directory, or clr.pyd to the site-packages directory and Python.runtime.dll to one of the above locations. * We've also tried having them in a separate directory, and running python.exe from that directory. (The readme is not very explanatory on how to modify an existing python installation). thanks for your help Paul & Tim _________________________________________________ Python.NET mailing list - PythonDotNet@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythondotnet ________________________________ Take the Internet to Go: Yahoo!Go puts the Internet in your pocket: <http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=48253/*http:/mobile.yahoo.com/go?refer=1GNXI C> mail, news, photos & more.
