Windows 7 packages_2.6/ogre doesn't exist

Hello,
When i start the command "C:\Python26\python.exe H:\PyOgre171\setup.py install", the command window tell me :

running install
running build
running build_py
error: package directory 'packages_2.6\ogre' does not exist

(while in fact it does exists in my pyOgre directory "H:\PyOgre171")
I have Python 2.6 and PythonOgre 1.7.1.
I tried with different version, but i still have the same problem.
Everything is fine in my command, isn't it ?

Current version of Python Ogre has been built for Python 2.7 only.

If you need to stay with Python 2.6 then you can use an older version of Python Ogre

Regards
Andy

Thank you Andy,

I downloaded the last version of python Ogre (1.7.2), tried to install it with python 2.7. I have the same error.
Python is still ignoring the "packages_2.7" directory.
I think it's a python's problem, i tried to give it the administrator rights, but no changes.

Then i changed setup.py, i replaced the line :
"package_dir": {'': 'packages_'+ PythonVersionString },
by full path name :
"package_dir": {'': 'C:\OgrePython172\packages_'+ PythonVersionString },

Python Ogre got installed this way, but when i start demos, it's not looking for PythonOgreConfig and SampleFramework in the right place (the upper directory).
Python seems to have problem with files path.

I didn't have any problem the first time i installed python on windows xp. : /

Instead of changing setup.py have you tried running python setup.py install from your H:\PyOgre171 directory.

Oh thank you, you'are right Dermont.

I removed my changes to setup.py, i tried to reinstall Python Ogre locating my cmd.exe to H:\PyOgre171. Everything's fine.
I did same with demos, it's running correctly.

An error message tell that i miss one dll : d3dx9_43.dll, but it finally worked after i installed tools/dxwebsetup.exe.

Here is a little experiment i made this year using python-Ogre : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spBAsXDfM-Y

Cool demo.

I navigate to the folder where i saved python Ogre and type python setup.py install. Then comes that error (packages_2.6/ogre doesn't exist) but i have python 2.7(.3) and don't changed the setup.py file. what can i do?

Wht version of python-ogre are you using? Are you using a version built for python 2.7.x?

This is now a bit offtopic but here is no longer the sole moderator online? I've looked at their profiles, the last time the one in here seen has had on March ... Recently, I was wondering why my theme is not released ... If it allows the thread creator, and his question is resolved it would be really nice if I could post my topic here: D

Sorry for my bad English ....

For your problem: At the beginning I had the same problem but it was solved after either ic h the packages folder renamed as have so Ogre want it or have installed another version of Ogre ...

No I don't think your python version is the issue, I have 2.7.0? You shouldn't have to make any changes to any folders or setup.py that I can recall. Do you have more than one version of python installed? Have you checked the correct version of python is being picked up from the command line:
>>python --version

i write in my command line python -- version and i see i have 2.6.5 but i have only installed 3.2 but then deinstalled it and installed 2.7.3 why my command line have 2.6.5? and what can i do?

Maybe 2.6.5 is the first version of python you installed. You can set the python path from the command line, try showing what is set:

echo %PYTHONPATH%
echo %PATH%

You can prepend your path to python2.7 via command line or environment variables so that 2.7.x will be found first.
set PYTHONPATH=C:\My_python_lib;%PYTHONPATH%
set PATH=C:\My_python_lib;%PATH%

okay it works i have changed my environment variables (now C:\python27 is on the start of the line) and now the installation works but when i want to start an Demo comes this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

This usually means that either (a) the Microsoft runtime libraries are not installed or
(b) DirextX is not installed.

To skip (b) you can edit python-ogre2.7\demos\plugins.cfg.nt to disable the DirectX plugin:
#Plugin=RenderSystem_Direct3D9

To double check what is missing download dependency walker http://www.dependencywalker.com/ and run:

a) Open G:\python-ogre2.7\packages_2.7\ogre\renderer\OGRE\OgraMain.dll and check for:
MSVCP90.DLL
MSVCR90.DLL

b) open G:\python-ogre2.7\plugins\RenderSystem_Direct3D9.dll and check for DirectX version
D3DX9_43.DLL

There are tools for downloading (a - vcredist_x86) and (b - dxwebsetup) in G:\python-ogre2.7\tools. Not too sure these are the most up-to-date.

i have checked the DLLs with depencywalker, when i want to open the D3DX9_43.DLL comes an eror. I think it means that the OGREMAIN.DLL, the GPSVC.DLL and the IESHIMS.DLL was not found.

Sorry I don't know what GPSVC.DLL is.The missing OgreMain.dll shouldn't be a problem it should be loaded when the ogre module is loaded.

You are not running Windows 7 on a 64bit machine by any chance? The python-ogre sdk is 32bit only.

Otherwise do a google search for such errors, such as:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums ... 26ffc4b235

If you are on a 32 bit machine, try importing the modules from the command-line and see what errors you encounter:
>python
>>> import ogre.renderer.OGRE as ogre
>>> import ogre.io.OIS as OIS

then:
> cd C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\ogre\renderer\OGRE
> python
>>> import _ogre_ as ogre

Oh i have oython 64bit. I think i must install python 32bit. thanks for all the help.
