Installing ArcPad 10.0.3 Python Not Found

DavidRobinson4 — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 04:25:55 GMT

When I install the ArcPad 10.0.3 version on my Windows Vista 64 U;timate (AMD 1090T Processor) the install routine tells me that Python is not detected and will not completely install the ArcPad toolbox set.

I have tried 32 bit versions of Python from 2.6/6 to the 3.2 (latest version) for windows 32 and and Windows Vista 64.

I have tried the versions compiled for 64 bit code -- 2.7.2 through 3.2.? (latest)

And Yes I did read the directions and installed the corresponding PyWin as well for each install.

Can anyone suggest a solution to this?

Is this a bug?

Is a specific version require?

Is a specific installation location required?

Juan:

I would love to. We bought ArcPad through the Mexican Distributor.
http://www.sigsa.info/sigsa/

BTW their English skills are minimal and my "Spinglish" skills are barely passable so it makes for interesting conversations if your suggestion is that I deal with them for support. 🙂 But if that's the way it's gotta be...

Bottom line: We do not seem to have any support account with ESRI. I checked our email record just now.

This is because we have installed the ArcPad on our Trimble GeoXH purchased and used in Mexico. I am currently sitting here in Canada testing all the software before I head out to the offices shortly and do not even know if I can use our license number to do a full install and test here -- before I head out.

Since you are with ESRI presumably you can email me through the account on my WebSite registration.

I will do what I can to assist.

If the "solution" is to work with Windows XP -- that is not on the table. If it is an issue where I must upgrade this system in Canada to Windows 7 I will do that asap!

Cheers y hasta luego.
