Digsby Python25.dll error

Post by majorcrash »

Install of digsby works fine, and I've tried both ways of adding the gdiplus.dll file, but that's not the problem. When I try to start up digsby after install, i get the following error:

Module not found
Loadlibrary(pythondll) failed

Which "both ways" are you talking about? If you haven't already, I'd recommend using winetricks ( http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks ) to install gdiplus (which is bundled with PowerPoint Viewer).

Secondly if you are trying to run Digsby from the command line, make sure you cd (change directory) to the place you installed Digsby to (eg cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Digsby) . Also check for a python25.dll in that directory.

Make sure you are using a newer version of Wine. Wine 1.0 is the current version.

I could not duplicate your problem, but I do not have or want a Digsby account so my testing is a bit limited at best. However, for me, the application launches fine and displays the login window.

Oh, right. Sorry. I meant that I had tried adding gdiplus.dll by downloading it from www.dll-files.com and adding it from the wine config menu. I've been trying to run it by just double clicking the icon in the program files folder when browsing the "C" directory from the wine menu. The python25.dll file is in there.
