Re: install problem. eggs [solved]

Hello Mark,

Thanks for feedback and happy to know that you manage to make it working.

Ca you please enter an issue for this problem. I'll try to look at it when possible.

Unfortunately, I am quite busy at the moment and I don't have a lot of time for modbus_tk. I have some other patches and improvement to merge into a new vesrion. Sorry to all users for not being able to do this now.

Best

I am on Win7 64 but using python 2.7 32bit.
I have installed from the unzipped folder using "python setp.py install".
This ran successfully and generated a single file modbus_tk-0.4-py2.7.egg which it installed in my python2.7/Lib/site-packages folder.
But I was expecting to see a pyd or a folder of py files...

Typing import modbus_tk at python prompt fails with "No module named modbus_tk" error message.

So I looked under my separate unzipped folder. In there I see a build/lib/modbus_tk folder. This is the folder I expected to see under the site-packages folder.
I copied that folder into site-packages and now it works.

Should your installer copy this directory too ?
If not, perhaps you could this extra manual step to the installation guide ?
Cheers, Mark...
