Installing under Windows - what am I doing wrong?
by BLOCKLEY Adrian Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

Hi All, After successfully installing SciPi under Linux I decided to install under Windows as I am investigating using SciPi for some cross platform software that we are developing. The installation seems to have worked but when I tried running some tests I get an error. Traceback (most recent call last): File "J:\temp\PLATLIB\scipy\tests\test_basic.py", line 6, in ? import scipy_base.limits as limits ImportError: No module named scipy_base.limits Now I confess to being a total Python Newbie but it seems to me that I need a module named scipy_base but I cannot find anything like this. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? I am running Python 2.2 under windows 2000. I installed Scipy using SciPy-0.2.1_253.3691.win32-py2.2.exe I've notice under the Linux install that there is a whole directory called scipy_base but this seems to be missing in my windows install.

Making faster statistical distributions
by Christopher Fonnesbeck Jan. 30, 2004

Jan. 30, 2004

I am already using pieces of SciPy in my Markov chain Monte Carlo package (PyMC), mostly for plotting functionality. I would also like to exploit the distributions implemented in scipy.stats, but they are far too slow for use in statistical simulation applications like MCMC, where millions of random draws may be taken. Therefore, I am thinking of implementing many of these distributions (at least the common ones) as C or Fortran extensions. I am unsure whether to use Fortran through f2py for this task, or C through weave.inline (for example). I have used both in the past for various tasks, and was generally happy with both. Any suggestions? Thanks, C. -- Christopher J. Fonnesbeck ( c h r i s @ f o n n e s b e c k . o r g ) Georgia Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit, University of Georgia

Running more than one applications using weave
by Joshua Menke Jan. 29, 2004

Jan. 29, 2004

I'm having problems when I run more than one app. using weave on the same (dual-processor) computer. Both processes will often attempt to create / delete / access the directories weave uses to store the compiled code in at the same time, causing one of the applications to fail. Is there a way to force weave to only use the local / current directory for *all* its files? I know how to tell it which directory to prefer using the PYTHONCOMPILED environment variables, but weave still uses other directories for intermediate files (/tmp/%USER%/) and also always tries to create and verify the default directory ~/.python_compiled. Is there a way to force it NOT to use anywhere but the current directory? Or is there another way to fix this problem? I'd like to be able to use a cluster of dual-procs machines we have, but the same problem would occur on the machines. In case you need more specific info on the most common error I see, it happens when weave tries to verify a directory is writable. My first application will create a dummy file then the second app will create one, the first app will delete the dummy file, then the second app will fail to delete the now non-existent dummy file, and the program terminates on the uncaught exception. thanks, Josh -- Joshua Menke NNML Lab BYU CS Dept. josh(a)cs.byu.edu

still cant save plots in OSX
by Christopher Fonnesbeck Jan. 27, 2004

Jan. 27, 2004

Months on, I am still unable to successfully save plots from scipy.gplt to files . I get no messages or errors, and most importantly, no png or jpg file. Is there any way of getting better feedback from Scipy so that I can debug this? Using recent CVS version on OSX 10.3 Thanks, Chris -- Christopher J.
