What version of GIMP are you running? I ask because I had some very strange behaviour with Python plug-ins on 2.6.10. Also are you running any firewall software? This thread on GimpUsers.com implies that plug-ins are registered with firewall software, and if that's blocking your python plug-ins, then they won't run, but might appear in your menus. My first reaction was that you have got python installed, but haven't got all the other graphics libraries (pygtk, pygobject and pycairo) installed properly. Kevin |

Well, as far as I know all three of the other libraries are installed, they never gave me any errors. I'm using 2.6.10. My firewall hasn't went crazy about anything but I'll look into it. the only what I would call strange thing is that I have to install python 2.3 in order for the other libraries to install then i have to install python 2.6. It doesn't seem that should be necessary. |

I'm rather suspicious that you had to install python 2.3. Looking at the package that PhotoComix put together here the installers for the other libraries are: pycairo-1.4.12-1.win32-py2.5.exe pygobject-2.14.1-1.win32-py2.5.exe pygtk-2.12.1-2.win32-py2.5.exe All of which match the version of python (2.5.2) in the package. It sounds like you've got old libraries which have installed for python 2.3 and as Gimp runs your python 2.6, that version doesn't have the libraries needed. Check in your Python26 folder if you've got the installation log files: pycairo-wininst.log, pygobject-wininst.log, pygtk-wininst.log PhotoComix posted some links to the versions for Python 2.6 towards the end of this thread on GimpTalk - at 24 Jul 2009 11:42 |

Actually there the most updated pack here http://gimptricks.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2kqm1b Both work with gimp 2.6 the difference is that mine is still compatible with 2.4, that of gimptricks only with gimp 2.6. maybe there is some problem with gimp 2.6.10 ? Actually i have installed gimp 2.7.1 and gimpainter so i can't check |

Update: I removed every trace of anything python, installed the libraries in the order that Photocomix specified, everything now works as it should. Thanks, Photocomix, and I don't say that casually or lightly. |

Yeah i was going to add i have 2.6.10 installed and am having 0 problems with Python. So i do not believe its the program.Glad you got it up and running Gms9810! =) Thats what i do when in doubt uninstall everything related and start over with fresh installs. I will be doing that next with my laptop, as soon as the kids are done with it .... lol |

I'm quite sure I had some of the wrong versions installed. That whole thing is very confusing, you have to have 4 things installed and each of those 4 have multiple versions. There should be a law against that. |

| Post subject: | Re: Python problem |
me too, I bought my grandkids a set and they just gave me a blank look, I explained that I used to spend hours playing with them. They were not impressed. But regarding python scripts. Last year i found 3 or 4 really neat ones that i couldn't get to work. I don't remember what they were so my next step after satisfying my spirocraving will be to beam over to the gimp plugin registryand go through it page by page and glean every python script that i find and like. |
