    Before I submit a bug report (Pythonwin)

    I uninstalled my 2.2.2 version of Python and related packages from my
    XP Professional station and proceeded to upgrade to the latest and
    greatest: Python2.3, win32all-155.exe, etc.

    When I try to start the Pythonwin editor, either through its shortcut
    or through right clicking on an existing module, a window pops up with
    the message:
    <Error getting traceback - cant import
    traceback>excep tions.ImportErr or: No module named
    pywin.framework .startup

    After, closing the window nothing happens.

    I was able to start the editor by double clicking on:
    Python23\Lib\si te-packages\Python win\start_pytho nwin.pyw

    So, I assume the problem has to do with the installation process.

    This is the first time I have ever had a problem with Pythonwin (the
    editor), so I'm a little surprised. Am I the only one having this
    problem?

      Re: Before I submit a bug report (Pythonwin)

      Oops, I realised this morning that my initial post has an error (that
      is what I get from writing from memory). I didn't upgrade from Python
      2.2.2, but from Python2.3c1. And another significant detail is that I
      chose a completely different location on the disk for the 2.3 final
      installation. I wonder if Pythonwin is looking in the old Python2.3
      location for something.

      I added Python2.3 to the path environment variable, and got the same
      results. I then went trough the registry searching for the old
      Python2.3 folder. I found an occurrance inthe following key:
      HKEY_CURRENT_US ER\Software\Mic rosoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Explorer\ComDlg 32\OpenSaveMRU\ exe

      I changed it to the new Python2.3 location, but Pythonwin still won't
      start. Any ideas?
