[issue4685] IDLE will not open (2.6.1 on WinXP pro)

[Ilan]

Ilan <idjivre at yahoo.com> added the comment:

It didn't work.

"cd c:\python26" successfully prompted "C:\Python26>",

But then entering "python Lib\idlelib\idle.py" did not work, the message
is too long to enter in this reply but here are some of the lines in the
body:

"Unhandled server exception!
Thread: SockThread"
[...]
"ImportError: cannot import name Random
*** Unrecoverable, server existing!"
[...]
"EOFError"

I hope this helps, I have no clue what to do...
