PyWin32: The specified procedure could not be found / Entry-point not found Errors? #193

"Installing globally python Scripts/pywin32_postinstall.py -install If you do this with normal permissions it will be global for your user (a few files will be copied to the root of your Python install and some changes made to HKCU). If you execute this from an elevated process, it will be global for the machine (files will be copied to System32, HKLM will be changed, etc)" I will test but we don't need to have it globally as admin but per user for python virtual environment. |
* try to get win32 function running... (solved after win32_postinstall ran without errors, cleaning up a lot of pywin32 installs was needed, see dictation-toolbox/natlink#193) * simplified extenvvars, getFolderFromLibraryName, * try to specify setClipboard function spurious error, (issue #16)

LexiconCode, could you, at least the explanation of Doug, include this issue in a problems section of your Natlink documentation? Thanks, Quintijn |
If this happens during post_install script of pywin32 or during python running (ie within natlink) then
From https://pypi.org/project/pywin32/
In almost all cases, this tends to mean there are other pywin32 DLLs installed in your system, but in a different location than the new ones..Most likely if this happens, there are old pythons kicking around with pywin32 installed.
Note this error can happen in dragon, but perhaps not in other python environments, because it seems to be random which set of pywin32 dlls are picked up. So your command line tests might work fine. Or vice versa.
It is recent that pywin32 is a prerequisite for natlink (via dtactions). Unimacro required pywin32 since time immemorial.
