<p class="MsoNormal">I’m successfully running GDAL 2.0.1 (dev), but the Python bindings are giving me a hassle. Specifically, I’m getting the classic “ImportError: DLL load failed” error when attempting a “from osgeo import gdal” at the Python 3.4 console.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m using the Win32 MSVC 2010 (“1600”) binaries and bindings from GISinternals, both dated November 11, 2015.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve followed advice found on this list and also Stack Overflow: GDAL_DATA and GDAL_DRIVER_PATH environment variables are properly set; Python, GDAL Core, and bindings are all on the same platform and compiler (Win32, MSVC 2010); and GDAL
is the beginning of the system path. I’ve also installed all the Visual C++ redistributable packages.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I should mention the same procedure works great with GDAL 1.11.3 and the 1.11.3 bindings. No problems at all.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Am I missing something obvious?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for any advice.<o:p></o:p></p>
