Hi,

I don't think that QGIS' ArcGIS' python installations get into their ways. I think they both bring along their own local python installations. Do you have any indication that the two interfere with each other or is it just an assumption?

It is quite common that machines have multiple python installations in parallel.

Hi Christine,

I recently had a problem on Windows XP when I uninstalled 1.7,
installed and uninstalled 1.6, and then installed QGIS 1.7 again. QGIS
1.7 kept on crashing and I eventually traced the problem to Trolltech
keys in the registry. After removing Trolltech from the registry and
then reinstalling 1.7 everything worked again.

Regards, Frank.

SUBJECT: [Qgis-user] ArcGIS 10 and QGIS 1.7

Good evening all,

have recently installed QGIS 1.7 on a Windows XP machine. It works
really fine and I havn't met any difficulty until now. Thanks to this
really engaged community ...

Should install a time limited version of ArcGIS 10 for educational
purposes now on the same machine. Should have better done this in
another succession, I know. Remember some troubles mentioned in this
list with ArcGIS beeing installed after QGIS, as ArcGIS also uses
Python.

Because I am now in worry about my clean QGIS installation, I am
considering to uninstall QGIS 1.7, then install ArcGIS 10 and after
all install QGIS 1.7 again.

May I expect the uninstall process of QGIS beeing complete enough not
to get another trouble after a second installation of QGIS 1.7 ?

Thanks for an advice,
and regards,
Christine
