Heiko,

Can you use SPSS without Python? The error says that SPSS is not licensed! If you don't have a valid license, use the license authorization wizard to get a valid license.

If it's not a license problem, check the requirements of the installation guide "Python plugin for SPSS 14.0.1 - Windows", valid for SPSS 14.0.1 and 14.0.2. You can find it at the Developer Central of the SPSS Website:

http://www.spss.com/devcentral/index.cfm?pg=articleDet&artId=8

Just follow the guide step by step and you will succeed!

Good luck!

Regards
Rolf

Dear Lister's



I have trouble using Python to control the Spss processor.

Does anybody have a clue what went wrong? I installed

-          Spss 14.0.2 (german version)

-          ActivePython 2.4

-          Spssaux

-          Spssaux2

-          Spssdata

-          Last three under: C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages



This is the error message I got:

>>Traceback (most recent call last):

>>  File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?

>>  File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\spss\spss.py", line 518, in
GetVariableCount

>>    StartSPSS()

>>  File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\spss\spss.py", line 154, in
StartSPSS

>>    raise SpssError,error

>>SpssError: [errLevel 19] SPSS is not licensed (failed to get license
for SPSS Base).



Thanx for your ideas...
