[edit] what i meant by 'xyhome script missing' is that nothing happens when i
try to
execute it with pythonw. In fact pythonw.exe dosent run itself.

ok, i tried reinstalling, this time the 'recommended' option. Now the desktop
icon is
at least the python(x,y) logo. However, nothing happens on double clicking the
icon
other than the mouse pointer displaying busy for a couple of seconds

I am having the same problem with Windows 7.

I am also having the same issue with the latest Python(x,y)-2.6.2.0 version. I
am using
Windows 7 and did not face any problems with the previous version of
Python(x,y)
(2.1.15). So it seems that there is something wrong with the latest installer
or the
chain of scripts that are executed on clicking the desktop icon.

Thank you all for this bug report.
Could you please take a look at your registry settings for Python(x,y) and
export the
following key?
Current user only installation:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python(x,y)
All users installation:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Python(x,y)

My registry entry is attached (from HKEY_CURRENT_USER).

Hi,
I have encountered the same issue after installing latest version of Python
(x,y) on
a vista pc.
The initial problem appears to being unable get a handle to the IPython api but
I
don't know why:
>>> ip = IPython.ipapi.get()
which returns ip = <None>
My registry entry for HKEY_CURRENT_USER is attached, which appears the same as
itarus.mail except for python version.

Has anyone found a solution to this? I am having the same problem with Windows
Vista. I've cleaned out the registry, installed as a regular user and as an
administrator, rebooted many times, etc. Basically every which way to get a
clean install, and still this doesn't work.
Is there any way to access an older version of Python(x,y)? I think the
current release is buggy.

I solved it. I'm not aware of another python or pythonw executable in my path,
as I've uninstalled everything, searched the registry, etc. However, changing
the C:\python26{....} variables from the end of the path to the beginning seems
to have resolved everything. Perhaps there is something that pythonw calls
that created a problem.
Thanks!

I had a similar issue in Win7. I decided to try the 2.7.2.2rc1. This fixed a
lot but I have another issue involving matplotlib and starting IPython. I wlll
make a new issue for this.

New install of Python(x,y) (2.7.2.3) stopped working.
Manually invoking IDLE shows why:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\xy\xyhome.pyw", line 37, in <module>
APP_PATH = osp.dirname(osp.realpath(__file__))
NameError: name '__file__' is not defined
Change :
APP_NAME = "xyhome"
APP_PATH = osp.dirname(osp.realpath(__file__))
TO:
APP_NAME = "xyhome"
APP_PATH = osp.dirname(osp.realpath(APP_NAME))
And you'll be back in the pink.

Dear All,
i previously had some messy installations of Anaconda and Enthought
simultaneously. Allthough i (think i) cleared everything thouroughly (registry
and systemvariables should be cleared too - console doesnt know python or
ipython anymore...), the installer of pythonxy warns me about python 2.7 being
installed. If i ignore the warning and install the way it is described in the
beginning, i have the same problem: no logo, no work :(
Do you think i can prevent this from happening before installing or should i
try the two fixes mentioned above after installing?
Although this topic is kinda old i hope i still get answered.
Thanks a lot
Marcel

I now have re-installed pythonxy with the 'full'-option. Still i do not have a
proper Logo and the program does not start. Moreover in the above described
path is not 'xy' folder.
I would be really glad if someone has any kind of idea as i already spent one
whole day trying to fix this problem ://
Thanks a lot

I installed Pythonxy 2.7.6.0 on Windows 7 and it worked fine but I felt that I
had messed up the configuration (modules could not be called) so I uninstalled
and reinstalled. Nothing worked, none of the desktop icons or any of the
program links. Tried several things including ccleaner to no avail.
In the end used 'regedit' and searched for "python" and deleted everything i
found then did reinstall. Started working, I probably have messed up any other
programes using python but I guess i can reinstall them if there is a problem.
Hope that helps, but be careful as it is a crude appraoch if you deside to try
it.

Hello,
After a complete removal of all python installations from my Win7 PC, I cleaned
my registry with CCleaner, checked that PATH had no reference to python and
installed Pythonxy 2.7.6.1 (with CPython, cvxopt, pyodbc, and WinMerge). After
clicking the "Python (x,y) Home" shortcut on my desktop no GUI window opened.
When running xyhome.pyw from the command-line, no output showed up in the
command window.
I can fix this by executing PATH="%PATH%":
> C:\Python27\Scripts\xyhome.pyw
> PATH="%PATH%"
> C:\Python27\Scripts\xyhome.pyw
There is no visible response to the first call of xyhome.pyw. The second call
opens up the "Python(x,y) Home" window. All I can see the PATH=... line doing
is replacing
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\Syste
m32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;
with
C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\Wind
owsPowerShell\v1.0\;
in other words %SystemRoot% and %SYSTEMROOT% become C:\Windows.
Is xyhome.pyw expected to work with "%SYSTEMROOT%" string in the PATH variable?
Thanks,
David
