Hi,

I unintentionally modified the default python path to a wrong one in the 
Preferences window of Spyder. After restarting it, the following error 
message showed up:

A Python or IPython Console failed to start!

and the python console was indeed disabled.

When trying to open the Preferences window in order to correct the python 
path, I get an error message in the Internal Console:

>>> Traceback (most recent call last):

  File

  File "subprocess.pyc", line 711, in __init__

  File "subprocess.pyc", line 1308, in _execute_child

OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory


I am not an advanced user so I do not see how to deal with this issue, I 
hope this is the right place to ask such questions.


Details: Mac OS 10.6.8, Spyder 2.2.5 (installed from dmg)


Thanks!
