Andreas, Barry, and all, I have the same TextIndexNG2 install error as Barry (see "Error text" below). My setup: MS VisualC++ 7 . Zope 2.7.8-final, python 2.3.5, win32 Also installed are TextIndexNGExtensions-2.02.win32-py2.3.exe and python-Levenshtein-0.10.win32-py2.3.exe. My windows registry points to the python installation that I have under Plone 2.1.2, and that is the only python on my Windows XP Pro machine. Barry, any luck? The TextIndexNG2 windows binaries were explicitly labelled "python2.3"; so the mismatch with python 2.3.5 is surprising. In terms of following Andreas Jung's advice to recompile the extensions, What can I do with MS Visual Studio .Net 2003 to move this forward? The associated compiler is CL.exe and I found it in ..Vc7\CL.exe so I think the visual C version is 7. Do I need to recompile all of python + TextIndexNG2? Or somehow make the compiler look like VC6 and then compile TextIndexNG2 extensions. Or somehow help "TextIndexNG2>python setup.py install" to see my VC++ compiler? Many thanks, Owen Error text: C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Data\Products\TextIndexNG2>python setup.py install -DUNICODE_WIDTH=2 running install running build running build_ext error: Python was built with version 6 of Visual Studio, and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed. "Barry Drake" <bldrake@adaptcs.com> wrote in message news:20060203031049.14953.qmail@web209.biz.mail.re2.yahoo.com... I have PloneLocalFolderNG installed, which works great. But, I can't run python setup.py install for TextIndexNG2. I get the following error: running install running build running build_ext error: Python was built with version 6 of Visual Studio, and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed. The documentation says to install the win32 extensions, TextIndexNGExtensions-2.02.win32-py2.3.exe, so I did that. Still can't run the setup script. Any ideas? System: Zope 2.7.6-final, python 2.3.5, win32 Thanks.
