Syntax Error: Older Version of Python Causing Problems in IDLE?

DamonOsbourne

Attempting to run a script with IDLE to fix some broken data links in an mxd. Keep getting this syntax error message, then IDLE highlights the "7" in red as seen in the pic:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]23564[/ATTACH]
I think it has something to do with the fact that I had a previous version of python/IDLE on my machine. I have since removed it and reinstalled everything, but keep getting the syntax error message. Would like this script to work in IDLE before moving to other IDE options. Ideas?

Ahhh I think I see your problem... It looks like you are trying to run text copied from the interactive python shell as a script. This won't work. You need to delete all the python shell stuff, eg Python 2.7.2 etc... and >>>. and just run the actual commands.

import arcpy.mapping as mapping mxd = mapping.MapDocument("c:/GIS/python/Broken.mxd") mxd.findAndReplaceWorkspacePaths("c:/GIS/python/Old/Trucks.gdb","c:/GIS/python/New/Trucks.gdb") mxd.saveACopy("c:/GIS/python/Fixed.mxd")

YES, that was it! Works great now thank you.

import arcpy.mapping as mapping mxd = mapping.MapDocument("c:/GIS/python/Broken.mxd") mxd.findAndReplaceWorkspacePaths("c:/GIS/python/Old/Trucks.gdb","c:/GIS/python/New/Trucks.gdb") mxd.saveACopy("c:/GIS/python/Fixed.mxd")

Since you're using forward slashes in your strings, don't make them raw strings (lose the leading 'r')

r"C:\Temp" = "C:\\Temp" = "C:/Temp"

Ok, this is what I've got. The error message, though, seems to reflect that header version.

Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 15:08:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information
>>> import arcpy.mapping as mapping

>>> mxd.findAndReplaceWorkspacePaths(r"c:/GIS/python/Old/Trucks.gdb",r"c:/GIS/python/New/Trucks.gdb")
>>> mxd.saveACopy(r"c:/GIS/python/Fixed.mxd")

Post your code. From what little I can see in the screenshot, your import statement lacks commas between the modules you want to import.
