Fredrick,
Why, when I type "import _imaging", do I get:
>>> import _imaging
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
>>> import _imaging
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
>>> import _imaging
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
This error message then pops up:
python.exe - Unable to locate DLL
The dll python21.dll could not be found in the specified path.
I do not have a python21.dll. I do have a c:\winnt\sytem32\python22.dll
however!
------------ ------------
I copied python22.dll to python21.dll. The result:
>>> import _imaging
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: Module use of python21.dll conflicts with this version of Python.
Is this the problem I am having? I tried this because imaging.py imports
this module and fails generating the exception that prints "The _imaging C
module is not installed".
