[Python.NET] calling Python via Python.Runtime DLL from IronPython

[Cameron Hayne]

I tried calling  Py_SetPythonHome("C:\\Python27")   before calling  PythonEngine.Initialize(),  but I got the same problem (re ‘copy_reg’ not found).
Any other suggestions?

The problem you're having sounds like the python path isn't correct for cPython. You could try setting the PYTHONHOME environment variable and see if that gets you any further.
