Thank you a ton! The documentation confused me, but that works exactly as I wanted. ... View more

It does not. I found the following solution, I'm unsure if anything else relies on these .dll files, but my scripts now work. Installing River and Flood Analysis (RFA) within Civil 3D causes errors in Python 3 | Search | Autodesk Knowledge Networ…  ... View more

The issue recurred so I cloned my hard drive and then methodically uninstalled programs until it worked again. After uninstalling Autodesk River and Flood Analysis Module 2018 and 2018.1 Update for Autodesk Civil 3D my scripts worked. To confirm, I cloned my hard drive again and removed these modules only and my scripts worked. I am unsure what is causing this issue, but evidently the people at Autodesk had some idea about it as they fixed the issue in the 2019.1 Update. See release notes for the update in the link below.

For anyone reading this thread... I called Esri customer support and got hooked up with someone there. Unfortunately, both IDLE and Spyder refused to work while on the support call and shortly after my computer decided it needed to corrupt the Windows files. I had to then reinstall Windows 10 fresh on my machine. Long story short, on this completely fresh install (even though I had reinstalled ArcGIS Pro several times to no avail) my code works without a hitch. I'm hoping nothing I do such as installing other software breaks it, but if it does I will report back so maybe we can track down what is causing this. ... View more

Any ideas? This has thoroughly stumped me. It won't work with the IDE installed with ArcGIS Pro either. ... View more

Fair enough. My problem still is not solved though, works in Python Window in ArcGIS Pro but not in Spyder. What the heck? ... View more

The patch mentioned in https://community.esri.com/blogs/dan_patterson/2018/12/28/clone ? I am using 2.3.3 which is what you used for that I believe. ... View more

Ok, working on that now. Uninstalled ArcGIS Pro and Anaconda and all related folders, files, registry keys, etc. that were left over after installation. Just installed ArcGIS Pro 2.3 and its three patches in "C:/ArcGISPro" shortening the path like you suggested. I have full control over my computer so am not making a clone. Now updating numpy from proenv.bat (located at C:\ArcGISPro\bin\Python\Scripts) and learning about sphinx and will downgrade if I decide I want to. Next I will install Spyder. If I install anaconda-navigator after that is there anything else I have to do to get that to work properly? Thanks again for your assistance. ... View more

I did, I guess I'm just a bit confused. I don't need python 3.7, Anaconda 3.7 is just the installer they have on the Anaconda website. I might be dense, but it shouldn't matter because I am using a separate environment for my arcgispro-py3-clone right? Regardless, I am going to try to delete the clone, uninstall the Anaconda Navigator I got from their website installer, and install the packages directly into "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\arcgispro-py3" folder using conda from "proenv.bat" and see if that works. ...

I get this: import sys sys.executable 'C:\\Program Files\\ArcGIS\\Pro\\bin\\ArcGISPro.exe' sys.base_exec_prefix 'C:\\Users\\Tab5a\\AppData\\Local\\ESRI\\conda\\envs\\arcgispro-py3-clone' sys.exec_prefix 'C:\\Users\\Tab5a\\AppData\\Local\\ESRI\\conda\\envs\\arcgispro-py3-clone'‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ which is correct right? Sorry, I don't quite understand what I should do/try. Should I uninstall and reinstall ArcGIS Pro and Anaconda? Should I clone or not? Should I try to make a clone in the path "C:\\Program Files\\ArcGIS\\Pro\\bin\\Python\\envs"? Should I try the mentioned .api patch? I'm assuming that if I do try the patch I have first install anaconda-navigator on/from my clone? Should I have installed anaconda-navigator from my clone in the first place rather than from the .exe from Anaconda's website? Sorry for the plethora of questions, I am just lost and extremely frustrated with this. ... View more

All of those folders are there - install paths are different though. "...\Resorces\Arcpy" is in: "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\ArcPy" But the clone is not in the following program files folder location: "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs" It is instead located at "...AppData\Local\ESRI\conda\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone". The packages you asked about are installed at: "C:\Users\Tab5a\AppData\Local\ESRI\conda\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone\Lib\site-packages\arcgis" "C:\Users\Tab5a\AppData\Local\ESRI\conda\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone\Lib\site-packages\spyder" Note though that I also have two "root" environments. One that was installed with ArcGIS Pro and one with Anaconda. Not sure if this would cause an issue or what and not sure at all if the following is relevant, but hey, guess it can't hurt. I figured there might be some kind of conflict going on between these two. For some reason "conda" commands do not work for the Anaconda installed base (root) environment unless executed from the Anaconda Prompt. In addition, the original "arcgispro-py3" environment does not have a "conda" executable (though I think it copied the "conda" executable from the "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\Scripts" directory when it was cloned.)
