Python Plugin on Vista

[Brock-15]

Hi Everyone,

I am having some trouble getting my SPSS 17 install to play with Python25.  I
believe my issue is that I am running Vista 64-bit.

Can I still use the plugin or am I out of luck?  When I download the 32-bit
plugin and install it, I do not get any errors, but when I try to test the
install (BEGIN PROGRAM PYTHON.  print "Hello world"  END PROGRAM.) SPSS hangs
at BEGIN PROGRAM.

When I try to install the 64 bit server plugin, I get an error suggesting I do
not have Python25.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I was having Vista issues and I downloaded the Ubuntu 9 flash drive for a dual boot thing. I recommend it you take the 10 minutes needed for dual boot install it is very very good


Does SPSS have a Ubuntu Linux license- my University gives me access to SPSS for Windows and ironically the free software version is more difficult to find

Thanks for the help everyone.  I did successfully install the 32-bit
version....it just seems to hang on the Begin Program.

I will keep trying.

Thanks,

Brock
