Hi there!

I was trying to install openemm under windows. it worked when the machine was running only local. then we migrated it to our domain and since that, nothing will run anymore.

Code: Select all

Starting up .. home is C:\OpenEMM .. found codebase .. C:\OpenEMM\bin\openemm.py
:40: UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments t
o Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal
  if not path in parts:
CAUGHT EXCEPTION:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\OpenEMM\bin\openemm.py", line 132, in <module>
    addpath (agn.pythonpath)
  File "C:\OpenEMM\bin\openemm.py", line 42, in addpath
    os.environ['PATH'] = os.path.pathsep.join (parts)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xa0 in position 0: ordinal
not in range(128)
anyone an idea how could this be? anything i could do?

thanks in advance,
harald

Which version of Windows do you run on your test machine and on your server?

i made a few conclusions:

with anonther account it works in the domain on all computers
with the account i wanted to use it does not work on another computer in the domain

i used the account a few weeks ago on another computer in the domain to make a few first tests with openemm - there it worked. i uninstalled all components then and tried to run all on another computer with the same user account. this does not work.
