ImportError: DLL load failed

[Tony May]

I'm having trouble importing when I run in Python. The hello world program
passes the test during the bjam build but gives an error about loading the
dll
when I import from a python script.

first the test from running bjam.
...patience...
...found 1915 targets...
...using 1 temp target...
...updating 2 targets...
...using <pbin\msvc-8.0express\debug\threading-multi>hello_ext.pyd...
capture-output bin\hello.test\msvc-8.0express\debug\threading-multi\hello
        1 file(s) copied.
**passed** bin\hello.test\msvc-8.0express\debug\threading-multi\hello.test
...updated 2 targets...

then trying to run the script from python
I copied the pyd file and the rest of the output dir to c:\python25\dlls

C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_35_0\libs\python\example\tutorial>python
hello.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "hello.py", line 6, in <module>
    import hello_ext
ImportError: DLL load failed: This application has failed to start because
the a
pplication configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix
this
 problem.

Thanks for any help

Tony
