yes, this has been already solved, thanks. But there's another *issue*. Leo asked me to also make some plugins available, even if user has not python installed, and to do that I need to inlcude all the needed python files. At the moment I solved this reauest, but, probably, reading the last mail I received, the *issue* could be: "Do we really want to let users *without python* to use python plugins without the need of installing python itself?"

I'll try. Thanks.

Marco

Hi Marco,

Problems 1 at a time:

1: Including needed Python modules - Only PyQt4 and Sip are absolutely necessary and need to be exactly the same as the ones qgis is built against otherwise qgis will crash on startup, even if there are already installed versions Qgis will still crash. What I do is copy them to the %PACKAGE_DIR%\pydep folder (which I made in the CMake install location for this purpose) and include using

testsip:
  IfFileExists $9\Lib\site-packages\sip.pyd sipok sipng
sipok:
  goto testpyqt4

sipng:
  #copy over included sip
  SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\python"
  File "C:\Program Files\qgis${PRODUCT_VERSION_NUMBER}\pydep\sipconfig.py"
  File "C:\Program Files\qgis${PRODUCT_VERSION_NUMBER}\pydep\sip.pyd"
  goto pyqtng

testpyqt4:
  IfFileExists $9\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4 pyqtok pyqtng

pyqtng:
  MessageBox MB_OK "PyQt4 is not installed.$\nInstalling Bundled PyQt4"
#copy over bundled pyqt4 instead of skipping
  goto installpyqt4
pyqtok:
  MessageBox MB_OK "PyQt4 located.$\nNote: Overwriting with included copy."

installpyqt4:
  SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\python"
  File /r    "C:\Program Files\qgis${PRODUCT_VERSION_NUMBER}\pydep\PyQt4"
pymacroend:

Details here: http://svn.qgis.org/WebSVN/filedetails.php?repname=Quantum%20GIS&path=%2Fbranches%2FRelease-0.9.2rc1%2Fwin_build%2Fpython.nsh&rev=0&sc=0

Not everything in python is needed. Only python25.dll and the 2bindings mentioned.

2: Mapserver export plugin as I remember had a Cmake error which was not copying it to python\plugins in windows but to "share", the Cmake bug needs to be fixed or you can manually copy as I have done in the past.

Hi Tisham,

I still have some problem with python plugins.
The problem is not about the installer, but about the package.
If I laucnch QGIS on my PC all work fine, python plugins included.... but
there's the python path key registry value set to
C:\DevTools\Python\Lib;C:\DevTools\Python\DLLs;C:\DevTools\Python\Lib\lib-tk
that help qgis to find the needed files.

But if I want to prepare a self-contained package I need to know what files
I need to include from python folder, and where to put them.

Since now I made as follows:

mkdir %PACKAGE_DIR%\python\PyQt4

copy C:\DevTools\Python\Lib\site-packages\sip.pyd %PACKAGE_DIR%\python
copy C:\DevTools\Python\Lib\site-packages\sipconfig.py %PACKAGE_DIR%\python

xcopy C:\DevTools\Python\sip\PyQt4 %PACKAGE_DIR%\python\PyQt4 /S/V/F
xcopy C:\DevTools\Python\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4 %PACKAGE_DIR%\python\PyQt4
/S/V/F

But I don't have mapserver export and plugin installer

If I also add:
copy C:\DevTools\Python\Lib\* %PACKAGE_DIR%\python

It happens as follow: when I launch qgis the following error appears on
loading:

[...] ImportError: No module named xml.dom

then (after pressing "close" on the error message), qgis opens correctly and
I have the plugin installer item in the plugin menu (but not mapserver
export). The plugin installer opens, but when I press "Get List" I have the
following error: [...] ImportError: No module named _socket

Could you help me, please?

Thank you,

Marco

Hi Marco,

Python is conflicting with my pre-installed python, can you check what I
have in the release branch, I use pre-built PyQt and put that within the
Qgis folder instead of using system PyQt. How exactly are you solvin the
python issues. Can you drop by in IRC sometime to discuss

Regards,
