[issue8723] IDLE won't start import os error
New submission from James Morgan : Hi, For some reason I have recently lost the ability to open IDLE for python 2.6.2. I was able to open it for 2.5 without issue. I reinstalled 2.6.2 several times, removed 2.5, tried 2.6.5 instead, still cannot load IDLE. I can load the python command prompt however. When attempting to run idle through cmd.exe I get an error in line 3 of pyshell.py "import os ImportError: No module named os" Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. -- components: IDLE messages: 105792 nosy: gromij priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: IDLE won't start import os error versions: Python 2.6 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue8723> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

James Morgan added the comment: Thanks for the reply. I have used idle before on this system without issue, and since 2.5 worked I figured there was some difference between 2.5 and 2.6 which was causing the issue. I have found since that the issue is likely not with idle at all however, but rather with the modules... while the python command line works I am unable to use it to run one of my scripts. Attempting to run through cmd revealed that it was failing as it could not import shutil. I am new to this help system so apologies if i have miscategorised this issue. Since it seems the nature of the problem is not what I initially thought I will move it to extension modules. I have no idea if it is relevant, but I am running on XP pro SP3.

James Morgan added the comment: Sorry, I guess I misunderstood the function as I saw some issues which appeared similar in style to my own. Never mind this then I will seek help elsewhere.
