Hello,

I downloaded and installed the pexpect module and wrote a script.  All is
well and good, but the script proved to be pretty useful and now I was asked
to run it as a scheduled task up on a server to run periodically.  I was
intending on simply packaging it up with Py2Exe and moving it to the server
that way.

However, when I went to test it, I received this error....

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "script.py", line 17, in <module>
    import pexpect
  File "lib\site-packages\pexpect.py", line 85, in <module>

ImportError: No module named resource

A critical module was not found. Probably this operating system does not
support it. Pexpect is intended for UNIX-like operating systems.

So now I realize that when I was testing on my system, I run cygwin and so
everything worked fine....

Is there a .dll that I can copy with it or anything so that it works without
having to install cygwin on the server that will be hosting this scheduled
task?

Thanks for any help.

Kevin

Why not just use the subprocess module? It's built into the Windows distribution, and doesn't need cygwin.
