I currently have both 2.3 and 2.4 on my Win2k computer. For the most part, I've been able to run each version, but I'm not configured completely correctly and I've run into a snafu. I downloaded LGT to try it out today; it uses PyGame (which as far as I know doesn't work with 2.4 yet -- or am I wrong here?), and OpenGL, and maybe has other dependencies. At any rate, the error I am seeing apparently involves OpenGL, and looks like this:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Dld\LGT\doc\dev_pygame.py", line 3, in ? import LGT File "..\LGT\__init__.py", line 2, in ? import video File "..\LGT\video.py", line 1, in ? from OpenGL.GL import * File "d:\Python23\lib\site-packages\OpenGL\__init__.py", line 26, in ? from GL.GL__init___ import __numeric_present__, __numeric_support__ File "d:\Python23\lib\site-packages\OpenGL\GL\__init__.py", line 2, in ? from GL__init__ import * File "d:\Python23\lib\site-packages\OpenGL\GL\GL__init__.py", line 2, in ? import GL__init___ ImportError: Module use of python23.dll conflicts with this version of Python.
I'm not sure what "this version" of Python should be here. I have a Pythonpath that refers to the 2.3 tree; neither 2.3 nor 2.4 is referenced in my Path variable. There is no evident reference to 2.4 active (at least not that I can find). The message seems to be telling me that the OpenGL module uses 2.3, which should be correct, but maybe I'm reading it wrong. Can anybody set me on the right track here?
When you enter "python" in the command line, does python 2.4 appear, or
python 2.3? If it's 2.4, be explicit about wanting 2.3 and run the script like so:
d:\Python23\python name_of_scriptfile.py
