C:\dex_tracker\pipe1.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\dex_tracker\pipe1.py", line 14, in last_line = subprocess.Popen([cmd], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0] File "C:\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 593, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "C:\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 793, in _execute_child startupinfo) WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified Script terminated.
