Hi all,
For testing purposes, and because I am not yet distributing my
application (which, thanks to you all, is now running perfectly!), I
am going to just bundle msvcr90.dll. However, I cannot find it! I ran
vcredist_x86.exe (I have a 64-bit version of win7, but all I have is
the x86 version of the program - is that a problem?). A search for
msvcr90.dll and just vcr90.dll returns 0 results. Where did it put my
msvcr90.dll file? I thought the point was to give me the dll? Thanks.

You need the same architecture and version as used by Python itself. A
32-bit executable (Python, or your compiled program) requires a 32-bit
dll, a 64-bit executable requires a 64-bit dll (and this one comes from a
different redistributable package, vcredist_x64.exe).
You may install the 32-bit dlls on a 64-bit Windows, but only 32-bit
programs will be able to use it.

I tried both vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe, with no result; I
still do not have the required dll (I have 32-bit python, so the _x86
should have done the trick). I will try another poster's suggestion of
installing vcpp express 2005 and hope that will work...

A bit off-topic, but:


<example>
C:\> for %f in (msvcr70.dll, msvcr71.dll, msvcr80.dll, mscvr90.dll) do @(
More? echo.%f "%~$path:f"
More? )
msvcr70.dll "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\msvcr70.dll"
msvcr71.dll "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\msvcr71.dll"
msvcr80.dll "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\msvcr80.dll"
mscvr90.dll ""

C:\> _
</example>


Cheers & hth.,

How do you notice that you don't have the required DLL? The DLLs aren't
copied into system32. The new location is the side by side assembly
directory WinSxS. You need adminstration privileges to install SxS
assemblies.

By the way VC Express 2005 is the wrong version. Python 2.6 and newer
are compiled with VS 2008.
