Basically I am on elive (which is a lenny based distro) with python 2.5.2 all required packages installed (as in Python, wx python ...) and still cannot get it to work.

Line 139 of the script seems to be looking for POL_Functions and cannot find it .... neither can I ... so what did I do wrong????

Hi

1 - Ensure that you have the latest POL version
2 - Try to remove .playonlinux folder
3 - Restart POL

I cannot find a .playonlinux directory and I installed from your repository with apt-get after adding the repo to apt source lists

Description: PlayOnLinux permits you to install windows applications on linux thanks to wine - Visit : http://www.playo$

You must have a .PlayOnLinux in your home folder

am afraid not, but as it never launched successfully, maybe it was never created?

ok upgraded to python 2.6 manually, now it complains about wxversion
will keep you posted

ok had to downgrade back to python 2.5.2 as 2.6 was wreaking havoc on my system now python 2.5.6 reports a syntax error and that is why it does not work. here is the error:

File "mainwindow.py", line 36, in
import guiv3 as gui, install, options, wine_versions as wver, sp, configure, threading, debug, gui_server
File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/configure.py", line 39
except IOError as e: # File does not exits ; it will be created when pol is updated
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


as you can see except IOError as e: seems to displease v.2.5.6 which comes as standard on lenny. so why make a lenny package if you cannot run on said platform??? or maybe I need to download an older copy of your scripts, in any case please could you let me know what to do?

ta

PlayOnLinux runs perfectly on Lenny... I don't know what's the problem but you have something wrong on your system

the distro I have is called elive (http://www.elivecd.org) and is based on debian 5.0.8 codename lenny, python 2.5.2

Here are a few specs:

$ python --version

as you can see there is no module named wx found by python.

launching playonlinux results in the following error:
playonlinux

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

you seem to launch python2.6 and the only python I have is 2.5.2, so that could be the problem. am I supposed to run 2.6???

besides that, python report a syntax error when lauching mainwindow.py as stated above

so really I welcome any idea, if you need to know more about the system in order to form a decent diagnostic please do ask I would be very obliged if you could help me tackle this problem

Thanks

Two choices here, repair Python 2.5 compatibility, or drop Lenny (and Etch) compatibility.

Indeed, compatibility with lenny has been broken, maybe you should make a lenny compatible version available for download??

Let me know your thoughts on this!!!!

We won't maintain two separate versions, if that was your suggestion.

mmmh no, my idea was more like make a previous version available for download, one that hadn't broken the lenny compatibility yet ;-) ... Let me know what you guys think as there are a lot of people still on lenny out there ;-)

Since programs to not work in isolation (they must work with operating systems that evolve, they communicate thru the network with external services,...), keeping a version functional is work, that's what I can maintainance. And as I said, it won't happen, there's simply not enough manpower to split it.
