Same Error Again. ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_core_)

Hi,

Just downloaded and installed the enthought beta for the mac os x (ppc) from:


I am running Mac OS X 10.4.11 ppc.

This file:

from scipy import arange, pi, sin
numpoints=100
step=4*pi/numpoints
x=arange(-2*pi,2*pi+step/2,step)
y=sin(x)

from enthought import chaco2
myplot=chaco2.create_line_plot((x,y),bgcolor="white", add_grid=True, add_axis=True)
myplot.padding=50
myplot.bounds=[400,400]

plot_gc=chaco2.plot_graphics_context(myplot.outer_bounds)
plot_gc.render_component(myplot)
plot_gc.save("tutorial1.png")

Produces a similar error to my first post:

Re: Same Error Again. ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_core_)

Hi David,

Sorry you're having problems with your install of EPD!

Soon after our beta 1 release we noticed problems with the PPC binaries that have since been solved and should be fixed with a new beta 2 release scheduled for late today or early tomorrow.  Unfortunately, there is no recommended immediate workaround.   The EPD README file in the root of the .dmg does contain instructions on removing EPD if you can't wait for the updated release, but if you have Python 2.5 installed, you can just temporarily switch over to it by modifying the 'Current' symbolic link in:
    /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions
such that it points at "2.5" instead of the EPD's "2.5.2001".


BTW, it would help us greatly if you could please us the EPD trac site to report future problems:
    https://svn.enthought.com/epd
You can register using the 'register' link at the top right and then you should be able to create tickets and comment on them.

Re: Same Error Again. ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_core_)

Dave,

I note on:


That it now says:  [Currently for Intel Only]

Yet this email mentions PPC, which is not intel. Do I have this correct, that a binary for the PPC will be available as well?

D.

Re: Same Error Again. ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_core_)

Hi D.

Yes, Beta 2 will support PPC.   That note was added to try to save new people browsing the site the pain of downloading it and finding out it didn't work on PPC yet due to bugs.   We really should have added that note earlier btw.

Student use

David,

I really appreciate this effort. I am relatively new to Python, but I  
am impressed with its application to mathematics and science. I am  
looking at python as a viable alternative to Matlab in my mathematics  
classes.

However, my experience in installing Python, numpy, scipy, and  
Matplotlib has been somewhat difficult. I've managed to get them  
installed by carefully following instructions such as those on:

http://scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X

However, as an experienced teacher, I know that my students would  
have great difficulty with this type of installation. So, I keep  
looking for a solution that will ease the installation on the variety  
of platforms used by my students, particularly windows xp and vista,  
mac os x, both ppc and intel, tiger and leopard. Your work comes  
closest to what my students need.

Thanks.

David.

Re: Student use

Do you think you qualify as an Academic kind of user? Because the Enthought Python Distribution comes with everything you mention and more and is easy to install and, from the license, it is free for the Academia...no need to install one package at a time.

Go here:
http://www.enthought.com/products/epddownload.php

I do not work for Enthought, so make sure you read the license yourself.

Hey David,

I do work for Enthought and German is exactly right ;-)  Student use of EPD is exactly the kind of thing that is (and will remain) absolutely free.  We very much want all degree-granting programs to be able to use our distribution without restriction.  Let me know if anything in the license is unclear, or if you have further questions.

(and thanks for the recommendation, German)

Best,

Travis

Re: Student use

All, 

Thanks for the encouragement regarding the academic license. That is part of the appeal of the package. 

What really appeals is the potential ease of installation, already a fact for Windows XP. The difficulty is the fact that more students have Vista and there are a goodly number of macs being used by my students, both ppc and intel. So I am really grateful that work is being done to include those platforms in a simple one-click type of installation. Without this ease of installation, most of my students would be lost trying to install.

Thanks for all the hard work.

David.
