[Liblas-devel] Problem installing v1.2 Python/Windows

[Jason.Woolard at noaa.gov]

hi all,

I just tried to upgrade to version 1.2 (python 2.5 on Windows XP) and I'm getting this traceback error:

>>> import liblas

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
    import liblas
  File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\liblas\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from core import *
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\liblas\core.py", line 122, in <module>
    las = ctypes.CDLL(lib_name)
  File "C:\Python25\lib\ctypes\__init__.py", line 348, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
WindowsError: [Error 14001] This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem


I had a similar problem with an earlier version and an old libtiff.dll turned out to be the culprit. That seems to not be the case this time. Has anyone else seen this or maybe have an idea about what might be wrong.

Thanks in advance,

Jason
