[nvda] Re: Problem with running Nvda from Python

Hello,
Most common problem when runing NVDA from sources is installation of latest version of comtypes. It is problematic to use this version with cominterfaces stored in our own directory. For the time being the fix is to downgrade to version 0.2.1. This recommendation has also been added to the wiki article describing how to run NVDA from the source code. 
So to fix this please try the following:
1) uninstall comtypes for python 2.5 if you have newer version than 0.2.1
2) install comtypes for python 2.5 version 0.2.1
3) remove all the files from the source\cominterfaces folder except of init.py 4) rerun generate.py (prefferably from the command-line) and notice any problems (if occured). 5) try runing nvda.pyw. if something goes wrong then provide an excerpt from your debug.log file. 

Hope this helps

Peter

Hello, I have installed needed applications for running nvda from source 
already.
I  entered to generate.py. Then I ran  nvda.pyw.   Nvda runs, but espeak speaks 
error
in appmodule default and nvda exits. I downloaded all python  scripts from:
http://svn.nvda-project.org/nvda/trunk
 and made the same directories and subdirectories as on the page. for example 
NVDAObjects,
AppModules and copy needed files to them..
Thank you for help
