hi Nick did you finally manage to include the entire standard library into an executable app? I am pretty interested to know about this, I had an idea where I needed to achieve this and I want to try again. thanks! enrike

IN any case: 1) install the Framework build of either python2.4 or 2.5 (whichever one the pywps folks are using) 2) What python external modules does pywps require? Are they in the repository at pythonmac.org/packages 3) Does pywps have any compiled components? If so, try building them with "setup.py build". If that doesn't work, what errors do you get? etc.... -Chris

pywps on mac osx

HI Apologize me for this mail if it is off topic here... i'm new to python, i've just a little experience about this wonderfull language :-) i'm tring to configure a python web processing server "pywps" on my mbp http://pywps.wald.intevation.org/ it is an open project to port python environment on the web to use it in on-line mapping application like web-gis i'm tring to configure it on mac osx but it don't works as aspected, i tried to resolve the problem with the developpers of pywps but they haven't a mac machine to try it :-( pywps is designed to use application like R or GRASS installed on a server and use this application with local data trought the web , with local data. to configure and try it, a Grass installation is needed, have any experience about? i'v grass installed from source and i followed the instruction to install pywps, but i've an error to import the "subprocess" routine (colling it from pyshall : - import subprocess it works ) the error that i've is : ./wps.py "service=WPS&version=0.4.0&request=getcapabilities" Traceback (most recent call last): File "./wps.py", line 74, in ? raise ServerError(e) File "/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/pywps-2.0.0-rc3/pywps/Wps/ wpsexceptions.py", line 105, in __init__ raise NoApplicableCode(value) pywps.Wps.wpsexceptions.NoApplicableCodePyWPS NoApplicableCode: No module named subprocess Content-type: text/xml to configure it this is what i done : cp /pywps-2.0.0-rc4 /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/pywps-2.0.0- rc4/ cd /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/pywps-2.0.0-rc4/ python setup.py install ln -s /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/pywps-2.0.0-rc4/wps.py / Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/wps.py i'm very happy if anyone mac python expert, woulìd give me an help to figure out :-) if you wont try it, i can post the instruction needed to have a mac grass installation. (it have a .app make file to build a binary installation to solve the grass dependancies a really nice frameworks are avaible on : http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/unixport/ ) thanks for any suggestion about! Massimo.
