I gave it a try. Almost, but no cigar: ERROR:root:missing ldap, try "easy_install python-ldap" web2py Web Framework Created by Massimo Di Pierro, Copyright 2007-2011 Version 1.97.1 (2011-06-26 19:25:44) Database drivers available: SQLite3, pymysql Starting hardcron...
Then I ran into trouble with easy_install not working: >python "c:\Program Files (x86)\Python27\lib\site-packages\easy_install.py" >python-ldap Searching for python-ldap Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/python-ldap/ Reading http://www.python-ldap.org/ Best match: python-ldap 2.4.1 Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/python-ldap/python-ldap-2.4 .1.tar.gz#md5=be20381013b28679b57a0285e053f8ef Processing python-ldap-2.4.1.tar.gz Running python-ldap-2.4.1\setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir c:\users \weheh\appdat a\local\temp\easy_install-hvyccy\python-ldap-2.4.1\egg-dist-tmp-ovjtnf extra_compile_args: -g extra_objects: include_dirs: /opt/openldap-RE24/include /usr/include/sasl library_dirs: /opt/openldap-RE24/lib libs: ldap_r lber sasl2 ssl crypto file Lib\ldap.py (for module ldap) not found file Lib\ldap\controls.py (for module ldap.controls) not found file Lib\ldap\extop.py (for module ldap.extop) not found file Lib\ldap\schema.py (for module ldap.schema) not found warning: no files found matching 'Makefile' warning: no files found matching 'Modules\LICENSE' file Lib\ldap.py (for module ldap) not found file Lib\ldap\controls.py (for module ldap.controls) not found file Lib\ldap\extop.py (for module ldap.extop) not found file Lib\ldap\schema.py (for module ldap.schema) not found file Lib\ldap.py (for module ldap) not found file Lib\ldap\controls.py (for module ldap.controls) not found file Lib\ldap\extop.py (for module ldap.extop) not found file Lib\ldap\schema.py (for module ldap.schema) not found error: Setup script exited with error: Python was built with Visual Studio 2003; extensions must be built with a compiler than can generate compatible binaries. Visual Studio 2003 was not found on this system. If you have Cygwin installed, you can try compiling with MingW32, by passing "-c mingw32" to setup.py. I think that's the end of the line for me unless someone has a better idea. I'm going to try to backtrack to python 2.5.4. On Jul 9, 3:23 pm, weheh <[email protected]> wrote: > Sounds reasonable.
