Python install, 2.4.1

Python install, 2.4.1

You are hitting this pretty weird bug, which is not fixed yet:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail <https://sourceforge.net/tracker/
?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1163244&group_id=5470> &atid=105470&aid=1163244
&group_id=5470

A workaround for you is to edit the file C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com
\client\genpy.py and remove the following lines:

   if not hasattr(sys, "frozen") and sys.platform.startswith("win"):
       print >> self.file, '# -*- coding: mbcs -*-' # Is this always correct?

until Python bug 1163244 gets fixed. This should work as long as you don't use
non-us COM objects.

Wasn't it always the case that you first had to install pythong and AFTER that
install (or re-install) activepython ?

Word of warning; installing the latest version of Python -2.4.1 - isn't a good
idea. It pretty much broke Python scripting in xsi in a fairly unpredictable
sort of way. 2.4 is good.
