Python MapScript module cannot be found?

[Howard Butler]

Emil,

Find all of the libmap.dll and gdal.dll in c:\python23 and
c:\python23\dlls and delete them.  Ensure that you don't have another
GDAL with ECW support somewhere else on your system.  The Python
Mapscript installer is pretty dumb and doesn't clean up after itself
properly.  Uninstall Python Mapscript using Windows add/remove
programs.

Install 4.4.2 MapScript which is located at
http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/mapserver/build_output/4_4_2/debug/python.zip
This MapScript does not have ECW or MrSID support (I am no longer
distributing those due to licensing constraints).

Refer to the message I sent Bas last week for more information.
