I've just upgraded from Python 2.3.3 to Python 2.4.2, and, although the new version of Python seems to be running correctly, I can't seem access the help from the interpreter.
On Python 2.3.3 --------------- Python 2.3.3 (#51, Dec 18 2003, 20:22:39) [MSC v.1200 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import time >>> time.ctime() 'Wed Jan 04 12:59:13 2006' >>> help(time) Help on built-in module time: NAME time - This module provides various functions to manipulate time values. ... etc ... On Python 2.4.2 --------------- Python 2.4.2 (#67, Sep 28 2005, 12:41:11) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import time >>> time.ctime() 'Wed Jan 04 13:01:22 2006' >>> help(time) cannot import name warn I get this warning for all modules which I've tried. I guess this is an installation problem, and have tried uninstalling and re-installing but that gives me the same results. Could anyone give me some pointers on where I might look to debug this problem? In case it's any help, I'm running Windows XP SP2, and have installed both Python2.3 and Python 2.4 on the same system. Could this be causing some conflict? Any help would be greatly appreciated! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
