Subject: [python-win32] Installation problem: Python 2.6.6 (32-Bit) on
	Windows 7 (32-Bit)
Message-ID: <AANLkTinHT0J1eVe-tvNjrTxMHFzBiPzowKo4dh4eqLCA@mail.gmail.com>

This is OT, but I can't seem to get an answer on CLP.

Has anyone else had problems running the msi for Python 2.6.6 on
Windows 7 Professional?

If I don't check "Compile .py to byte code", the installer completes
without error.

Checking "Compile .py to byte code" causes the following to be
displayed

"There is a problem with the windows installer package. A program run
as part of setup did not complete as expected"

1. I have GB of disk space available.
2. I have admin privileges
3. The MD5 checksum of the downloaded installer matches the MD5
checksum on python.org
4. Run As Adminsitrator is not available when I Shift-Right Click
(probably because my login already has admin privileges)

It's a known bug in the installer. I'd have to dig through the tracker to
find the issue numbers, but I reported this issue for a 3.1.x installer and
tested out a fix which appeared to work. The fix might not have been
backported to 2.x, though.

Thanks Brian.
If it's a known bug, why don't they pull that installer down?

Dear Sirs
 
I was programming many years with delphi/sql server and now i am looking python with your ado library to migrate . I am making my first ado program with python using python 3.1 and pythonwin but i have a problem : recordset can?t acces fields data i send you a sample and the answer from python 
 
# First import two useful modules
import win32com.client
from adoconstants import *
# Create the ADO Connection object via COM.
oConn = win32com.client.Dispatch('ADODB.Connection')
# Now set the connection properties via the ConnectionString
# We're connecting to a SQL Server on 192.168.1.100 using OLEDB.
oConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\personal.mdb;" 
# Now open the connection
oConn.Open()
  
if oConn.State == adStateOpen:
  # Do something here
  print ("We've connected to the database.")
# Now create a RecordSet object and open a table
  rs = win32com.client.Dispatch('ADODB.Recordset')
  rs.Open("select * from agenda",oConn,1,3)             # Open a table called agenda
  # Can also use oRS.Open("zipcode", oConn) instead of setting ActiveConnection
  print( repr(rs))
  
  while not rs.EOF:
      print (rs.fields("nombre"))    
      # Move to the next record in the RecordSet
      rs.MoveNext()
  
# Close up the connection and unload the COM object
  if oConn.State == adStateOpen: oConn.Close()
  oConn = None    

 
Answer from python 
 
We've connected to the database.

I'm not positive but I think it's telling you that this rs has no
attribute fields. So us help(rs) and see if you're using it correctly
or maby you need to reference a class as well before using it.

Then there would be no installers for 2.6.6, effectively removing Windows
from the list of supported platforms. The compile step is nice, but not
required, and certainly not a show-stopper.

http://bugs.python.org/issue6716 is one of the few issues on the topic, and
it contains the fixes by Martin, which were only applied to trunk (2.7) and
py3k (3.2).

I guess a more important question is, Once installation completes
without doing the compile step,
does the same module have a problem compiling when it is imported as
part of a normal script execution?

Nope, everything else is fine. The bug in the installer had to do with bad
command line options to compileall.py which is what goes through and
executes the pyc compilation on stdlib modules. That script was failing to
run properly, but compilation itself does work.

The problem is that the collection property is spelled "Fields", not
"fields".

As a general rule, it not polite to make a request like that.  We are
all unpaid volunteers here.  If someone knows the answer, they'll
respond as soon as they read your question.  If no one knows the answer,
no one will respond.  No one is going to read your message and say "I

  It's the Fields collection (with an uppercase F), not the fields 
collection.
Python is case-sensitive.

Dardo:
  Why are you going to all this work?

You could simply...
import adodbapi
which has all of the COM interface things already written.

There is a new version which has the ability to access columns by name, and
which uses objects to read data directly from the recordset (rather than
copying data into Python tuples.)  You can pick it up from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/adodbapi/ -- that installer will replace the
copy which comes with pywin32.

It passes all of the tests (including reading and writing ACCESS tables) --
but someone trying the new features in a new application would be very
welcome.  Unit tests can miss things.  Please try it out and let me (and
everyone else) know how it works for you.

Subject: [python-win32] Trying again: debugging inside Windows Script
	Components
Message-ID: <AANLkTinJ7EGxD2X9dc+EddK5QGPXhq4Z7-hA_MmVoinS@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

I have asked this question before, but there were no answers then. I have
several problems relating to Python in classic ASP using WSC's, but this one
is the real showstopper for us.

When I use Python in a WSC and I instantiate that WSC in a classic ASP page,
all works as expected, if the code inside the WSC is bug-free. However, if
there is a bug in the Python code inside the WSC, IIS just gives me
something like:

*error '80020009'**
**Exception occurred.
**/tools/python.asp**, line 6*

When I use vbscript in the WSC and there's a bug, Visual studio just pops up
and lets me debug it. Not so with Python.

I have tried several routes, Googling (ofcourse), using win32traceutil (*
print()* output appears in the trace collector, but an error doesn't, so
stdout seems to work, and stderr doesn't ). I've also tried debugview from
sysinternals, because I've read somewhere that that program can also show
tracebacks, but in my case it shows nothing. I've enabled debugging in the
WSC, in the registry for active scripting and in IIS for both client side as
well as server side. I've also tried setting stderr to stdout and using
trace collector.

I don't need a fancy solution, just a way to view the traceback somewhere.
If anyone has a suggestion, even a far-fetched one, I'm willing to try it.

Thanks,

Erik

Hi,
I'm new to pywin32 and DDE. I'm trying to create a DDE server that
interfaces an Excel Worksheet. Excel will act as a client in order to read
from and write to the server. I had no problem implementing the Request
operation (*). But I failed to implement Poke operation in the server.

Any hint or sample code on how to implement DDE Poke ?

Thanks, Jon.

Dear all, 

sorry for these basic questions. I downloaded python source then I built python executable using pcbuild.sln in PCBuild folder as stated in readme.txt.

I built most of them successfully except tkinter, bsdbb, ssl, bz2. Yes, I know it was written in readme about how to build them. But I have not understood where I can download their source codes? And how to integrate that in the solution?

Second question. After built python, how to install them into specified folder? I tried to simply move the executables into another folder. Create libs, Lib, and DLLs folders just normally I saw in Python for Windows distribution and move compiled libraries and pyd files into those. But when I tried to run
>>> import sqlite3

Intrepreter respond was: no _sqlite3. 

But I noticed if I moved _sqlite3.lib into a same folder with python.exe, then it worked well. Did I miss something? So how is the correct way to copy compiled executables, libraries dan pyds into a specified folder?

Thanks,

There's a note explaining that Tools\buildbot\external(-amd64).bat will get
the source for those subprojects. Run that batch from the top level of your
checkout.

You'll need to do a few additional things for ssl which are laid out in that
readme.

You might be interested in the Tools\msi folder to create your own
installer. However, I've never had success with this, so I'm afraid I can't
really help there.

Subject: [python-win32] Unexpected delay in printing with win32print
Message-ID: <4C9142EC.8020300@cas.pl>

  Dear list members,


I'm using Python 2.5.2 running on Win2k.


I've just try one of Tim Golden's "Win32 How Do I" 
hints. Those on printing with win32print - Spooler API 
wraper.


The problem? The problem is a huge delay in printing - 
about two to four minutes. I'm printing to HP LJ 1320 
connected via USB port or print server attached to 
parallel port.


Can You explain the cause and perhaps point me out to 
solution or workaround?


Sincerely Your's



Here's the code:

import win32print
printer_name = win32print.GetDefaultPrinter ()
#
# raw_data could equally be raw PCL/PS read from
#  some print-to-file operation
#
raw_data = "This is a test"

hPrinter = win32print.OpenPrinter (printer_name)
try:
   hJob = win32print.StartDocPrinter (hPrinter, 1, 
("test of raw data", None, "RAW"))
   try:
     win32print.WritePrinter (hPrinter, raw_data)
   finally:
     win32print.EndDocPrinter (hPrinter)
finally:
   win32print.ClosePrinter (hPrinter)

Can't see anything obvious. By sheer chance, since I'm
away from home at the mo, the only machine I have access
to is a Win2k machine with Python 2.5.2 on it attached to an
HP LaserJet 1018. I'm just downloading the pywin32 extensions
over a painfully slow ADSL line and I'll see if I can
reproduce.

I doubt very much if it's anything in the code; might *just*
be some bizarre thing to do with not pushing enough data
through the buffer although I would have thought that that
would have caused it *never* to print. Anyway...

First, thank a lot for Your attention. Please don't 
hesitate to put digging into that problem off for a 
while. Until You'll back home at least. It's not so 
burning.


The problem as whole is not so common this days, I 
think. What I'm trying to do is to find the simplest 
way of printing high volume of textual data - a long 
tables containing scientific data (sometimes hundreds 
of pages).


Portability is important issue for that job. And 
portability in this case means both ability to run the 
app on Unix, Linux and Win and sending printouts to 
page as well as to line printers.


I'm trying to achieve this through simplicity. I want 
to pass over the whole DC machinery usually involved 
in drawing and printing to paged media.


Any thoughts, comments would be welcome.




Sincerely Yours

Have you considered outputting your raw data to a portable file format like
HTML, PDF, etc and then printing these outside of Python? Just a thought.

I would guess that the printer is waiting to see if more data is going to be
sent and eventually - after a timeout - deciding not.  Looks to me as if
your test data needs at least a carriage-return to mark the end of a line,
and more to the point something (but I'm not sure what) to mark end of page.
 It might just be an EOF character.

Failing that some PCL command sequence, perhaps?  It might be worth doing a
pront to file of some simple plain text document and then looking at the
printout file to see what else is in it.

Conceivably if you sent one long string of test data, where the volume of
text was more than one page's worth, you'd see the first page print
immediately and then a long delay for the second page.

Message-ID: <731530C9-2580-4255-A9EC-039826707310@gonicus.de>

Hi folks,

I extended the win32comext MAPI with the Interface IExchangeModifyTable to edit ACLs via the MAPI. I can modify existing ACL entries, but I stuck in adding new entries. I need the users entry ID to add it, according this C example 

(http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B297493&x=14&y=15)

STDMETHODIMP AddUserPermission(
   LPSTR szUserAlias, 
   LPMAPISESSION lpSession,
   LPEXCHANGEMODIFYTABLE lpExchModTbl, 
   ACLRIGHTS frights)
{
 HRESULT     hr = S_OK;
 LPADRBOOK   lpAdrBook;  
 ULONG       cbEid;
 LPENTRYID   lpEid = NULL;
 SPropValue  prop[2] = {0};
 ROWLIST     rowList  = {0};
 
 char szExName[MAX_PATH]; 
 // Replace with "/o=OrganizationName/ou=SiteName/cn=Recipients/cn="
 char* szServerDN = "/o=org/ou=site/cn=Recipients/cn=";

 strcpy(szExName, szServerDN);
 strcat(szExName, szUserAlias);

 // Open the address book.
 hr = lpSession->OpenAddressBook(0,
                                 0, 
                                 MAPI_ACCESS_MODIFY, 
                                 &lpAdrBook );
 if ( FAILED( hr ) ) goto cleanup;

 // Obtain the entry ID for the recipient.
 hr = HrCreateDirEntryIdEx(lpAdrBook, 
                           szExName, 
                           &cbEid, 
                           &lpEid);
 if ( FAILED( hr ) ) goto cleanup;
 
 prop[0].ulPropTag  = PR_MEMBER_ENTRYID;
 prop[0].Value.bin.cb = cbEid;
 prop[0].Value.bin.lpb = (BYTE*)lpEid;
 prop[1].ulPropTag  = PR_MEMBER_RIGHTS;
 prop[1].Value.l   = frights;

 rowList.cEntries = 1;
 rowList.aEntries->ulRowFlags = ROW_ADD;
 rowList.aEntries->cValues  = 2;
 rowList.aEntries->rgPropVals = &prop[0]; 

 hr = lpExchModTbl->ModifyTable(0, &rowList);
 if(FAILED(hr)) goto cleanup;
 printf("Added user permission. \n");

cleanup:
 if (lpAdrBook)
  lpAdrBook->Release();
 return hr;
}


I can open the Address Book, but HrCreateDirEntryIdEx is not provided in the pywin32 mapi. I found it in the exchange extension, which does not compile on my system, the missing library problem. Do you have any idea to retrieve the users entry ID?

Thank.

Yes, it's FF (Form Feed) what's doing the job.


The real and unexpected problem is ... just weak 
documentation on that topic from the Microsoft. 
Dealing with Spool API (as it's called in MS docs) is 
just only skimmed. Even Petzold skim over it!


Great thanks to all of You trying to help. For a guy 
who's back in system programming ;) after fifteen 
years or so fighting such problems it's traumatic 
experience.


Once again, thanks a lot.

Hello,

After installation of pywin32-214.win32-py2.7.exe,I got regularly the 
message "Windows Script Host --- Can't change default script host."
Before installing pywin32-214.win32-py2.7.exe, I could do (as admin) : 
wscript //H:cscript and got the message saying it was ok. (also the
same command with cscript).

What is the problem ? What can I do to get rid of this message ?

I work with Windows XP SP3.

Regards

	via Win32 API?
Message-ID: <1285862956.22785.1397713153@webmail.messagingengine.com>

I know there is a simple interface to the Windows messagebox
interface.

Is there an equivalent type of simple dialog box for showing a
progressbar or progressbar-like information?

Use case: I have a collection of Python command line utilties
that can take up to several minutes to run. These are utilities
may be called from other applications. Our users have asked
whether these utilities can display a progressbar while they are
running.

Our utilities are very lean right now and easy to distribute and
support. We would like to avoid having to use Tkinter or large
GUI frameworks like wxPython and pyQt if at all possible.

Thank you,
Malcolm

Subject: [python-win32] win32api: How to send WM_SIZING to a Window
Message-ID: <4CA4CC97.60700@gmx.net>

Hello,

I have a program which I can control via COM and Python's win32com.
This program will visualize a big tree, which gets created by my COM-commands.
The problem is, that after each modification of the tree (like insert), the program
refreshes its display area.

Accidentally I discovered when you click on the window of the program
to change its size, as long as I don't lift the mouse button, the refresh of the display
area is suspended and the performance of the tree creation increases by factor 10.

So my idea is now to simulate this event.

When I use win32api.mouse_event(...) with the correct location in the window, it works, but I can't use
the mouse. Because Windows thinks the left mouse button is pressed, all movement will change the size
of the window. Clicking again will release the connection to the window and the performance will drop
again.

I also tried win32gui.MoveWindow(...) and win32api.SetWindowPos(...). But both behave like clicking the
window, move the mouse and release the mouse button. So, this does not work!

My idea now is to send the WM_SIZING event to the window. So I tried something like

win32api.SendMessage(hdnl, win32con.WM_SIZING, win32con.WMSZ_BOTTOM, "0 0 100 100")
This returns 0 and nothing happens.

The last param should be a RECT. I found info about a PyRECT class (see http://timgolden.me.uk/pywin32-docs/PyRECT.html)
but I am not experienced enough to create an object from it ( in this moment I saw that the ctypes.wintypes has this class :-( ).

So I tried to create a RECT structure (which looked like the one from ctypes.wintypes) but as result I got an exception
saying that the last param needs to be a String, int or buffer (there is a typo in the exception ;) ). So I tried to give
the rect byref, but this gave me the same exception.

So, can someone explain me how to send this event to the window?
Or perhaps my idea is total idiotic and one can archive this easy by a differnet way?

Thanks in advance

Andreas

Most similar COM controls have APIs to suspend drawing while you make
large scale changes.  Sometimes it's called freeze and thaw, sometimes
suspend and resume, sometimes other similar words are used.  Have you
looked carefully through the COM interface to see if there is an
interface like that?

Is this some well-known program?  Perhaps one of us can take a look at
the interface.

There are no progress dialogs built-in to Windows.

If you look in site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\Demos, you'll find
"progressbar.py".  This is a Python wrapper around the MFC CProgressCtrl
class.  You might be able to adapt that to do what you need, although
I'm not sure MFC is any lighter weight than Tkinter.

There is a collection of useful dialogs for non-gui programs called
"easygui.py".  Although it doesn't have a progress bar, perhaps their
philosophy might help you.  It uses Tkinter.

Have you tried it?  That's exactly the switch you need.  Although I
don't speak German, there's also a reference to an "Interactive"
property that might help you.

(I believe their explanation is justifying a bug, not describing
necessary behavior.  Many COM servers handle this just fine.)

Beyond that, you're just hacking, and you'll need to experiment.

The program is CATIA from Dassault.
They have a parameter to control the refresh of

Of course I tried it and it is not working. I am trying for two days now.
The Interactive-switch is just preventing user inputs (this works fine).

The COM implementation is "suboptimal". There are a lot of features you can not access via COM.
Don't ask me why. Due to this suboptimal behaviour, I need this stupid hack.

The question is now, what is a correct WM_SIZING-message?
With a string for the rect, a RECT-object, two words or something else?
It can't be possible that I am the first person sending a WM_SIZING-message to a window in python?

Try Easy Dialogs
http://www.averdevelopment.com/python/EasyDialogs.html
It have a progress bar. Easy Dialogs just wraps the native OS calls,
and makes them sensible & cross platform.

Using a progress bar is only a few lines of code.
