No module named string ?!

[Martin]

Hi,

since my last update of Rhino 5 (Version 5.0 (5.1.20801.1108, 01.08.2012))
Python Script doesn't work anymore.

Here's the errormessage:

Message: No module named string

Traceback:
  line 7, in <module>, "C:\Users\Martin\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript\utility.py"

How can it be that the string module is suddenly missing?

Thanks

Hi Martin,
Check your path. If you have customized it there may be a bad path pointing to a directory where Rhino 5 used to be installed (WIP).

Hi Steve,

yes. for some reason that didn't update with the Beta install. I hit the "restore defaults" - and it worked.
I had an additional path in that list. Maybe that was the reason.

Thanks.

Same here thanks for the info!
Already thought it was a faulty V5 update. Uninstalled, reinstalled updated manually - same error.

Resetting the defaults fixed it.

Maybe a more specific error message with a suggestion to reset the scipt options would be helpful.

Thanks Conrad

Yep, this is a bug that I need to fix.
