Hala mahmoudajawad,
You are right the problem is with spaces in the directory name.
Just download the gtk+ bundle from here, unzip the file into a directory with no spaces, ( C:\gtk ) for example, finally just add the bin directory of the folder you unzipped into your path variable.
Not super elegant, but works.
@Nazieh, thanks for your reply. Yes, this works. I can confirm. I'm hoping the bug itself can be resolved for others as well.
Occasionally, when I'm refreshing Python installation on Windows 10, I end up with issues attempting to get
weasyprint
to work, and it's only that some random step that resolves the issue and I just overlook what happened and continue my day. Today however, I wanted to document what has happened to me in order to make sure I know exactly what has happened and how to resolve the issue in the future. I've done this:weasyprint
docs.weasyprint
.python -c 'import weasyprint'
.To understand what's going on, I added a
breakpoint
at line 45 for file__init__.py
which is one step before raisingOSError
.Printing
exceptions
from the breakpoint gave the following message:I could be wrong, but isn't this asserting
ffi.dlopen
is failing because it's not correctly escaping the spaces in the path to load the lib?
