The second sentenc you cited above bear on my insallation on a WinXP system, where your installer worked perfectly. On the Vista machine, I had no Python installed and the lyx2lyx script failed. I now installed Microsoft's VC++ redistributable package, as suggested by Paul Rubin, and now the lyx2lyx script works. So I think there is a problem with the python.exe and/or python26.dll which are in the bin directory of LyX 1.6. > I'm currently also on a Vista machine but cannot reproduce the problem. > I installed here also Python 2.5.1 and then LyX using my installer. LyX > correctly recognized Python 2.5.1 and therefore not installed Python 2.6. As I said, the scenario was different for me, as I had /no/ Python installed. Thanks for your effort, Dominik.-
