I'm trying to install the myro package so I can mess around with a Scribbler robot. After successfully installing the package, I get the following error:
from myro import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#4>", line 1, in -toplevel-
from myro import *
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\myro\__init__.py", line 18, in -toplevel-

import win32file # The base COM port and file IO functions.
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
Python version is 2.4.4 (as used by the package). Also, I have the directory C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32
, and there is the file win32file.pyd
. I have no clue why this is happening.
Any thoughts?
This happened to me too. All I had to do to fix it was uninstall and reinstall the program(suck but works). Here are some detailed instructions:
Myro Installation and Setup
You will be downloading and installing Myro to your computer. At the end of the installation, Python, an IDLE and special helper files for Myro will be ready to use on your computer.
Before you start, please read through these directions. The installation and setup instructions will outline what to do for a Windows machine (specifically Windows XP) but many of the steps will need to be performed on other platforms. Installation instructions for Linux, MacOS X and Windows are provided on the IPRE website.
Follow the directions below very carefully. Myro installation and setup will not go smoothly if you rush through the process and overlook important details. You may want to check off each step as it is completed. Note: You will not need to set up the hardware.
Python2.4 was the latest version of Python at the time these instructions were written. Don’t be surprised if there is something more recent now.
You should already have a basic knowledge of how to download files and create folders on your computer. If you do not, consult the Windows Help menu and learn the details you don’t know. Step 1: Read the Instructions
Step 2: Download Myro
Step 3: Install Myro
Step 4: Setup Myro
