Hi, >From the stack trace, it seems your conjecture 1 is True. So this is most probably happening because of subtle differences between PA-RISC and Itanium. Itanium was built to be able to execute almost everything that PA-RISC can. However as per the following page below: http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/answers/5-3.html you must use "-x allow_incompatible=true" option when you swinstall a PA-RISC application on compatible Itanium platform. Note 'compatible'. Have you done that when installing the older python1.5.2 binary on Itanium systems.
I just did a google search to get this far. Have never worked on PA-RISC or Itanium, only knew superficially about Itanium because I worked for Intel till recently. For more details you would have to wait from some more knowledgeable answers. take care, Vishal On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 2:00 PM, Wah Meng Wong <wah_m...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Hi guys, > > I have a python application running on HP-UX B.11.23 U itanium 64 bit.
