No Python installed. I can't get the plugin to initialize. I go to Tools/options/other/advanced options/Com Addins and check the SpamBayes plug-in box, but it won't stayed checked, and I've uninstalled/reinstalled Outlook and the plugin but no go. I've got this working great, really great, on Winnt 4.0 and Xp. Logfile being attached for upload...

If not, would you please publish the procedure for Python install and manual install of Spambayes, such as what user usertgo did? Also, when is the next binary release as you alluded to fixing it for that release? -hschoenman@adelphia.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Helge Stenström (helge) Date: 2003-05-02 05:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=19115 Installation fails on Windows 2000. I have: * http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/downloads/SpamBayes-Outlook-Setup-0... (2968028 bytes) * ActivePython-2.2.2-224-win32-ix86.msi The log file talks about files on E:\, which isn't mounted. An earlier log file (which seems to be overwritten, I can't find it) claimed to have written stuff to c:/Documents and Settings/erahege/Application Data/SpamBayes/<omething>.pck, but that file is nonexistent. I have NOT installed http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/downloads/win32all-152.exe, beacuse the instructions on http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/spambayes/ doesn't say so. My log file is very similar to the one already uploaded. I will upload my log file if I find out how to do it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: J (usertgo) Date: 2003-04-26 01:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=763953 ok, since i liked it so much on win2000 i did the python install & manual install of the spambayes outlook addin & its working good now, so i guess it was the installer. thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: J (usertgo) Date: 2003-04-24 01:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=763953 I also get the same errors as in the logfile on a Win98SE installation w/Outlook 2000 SP1, but it works on Win2000 w/same Outlook. If you have any workarounds (w/regedit?) please let us know... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: dan maer (dmara) Date: 2003-04-22 23:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=759684 Ok Mark... Anyway to bypass the installer issue and get it working by manual means?

I will try and sus it out before the next binary release. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=498103&aid=725449&group_id=61702
