Python with SimPy on Eclipse installation error (Windows 7)
Question: I have been using the PyDev in eclipse for quite a while with no problem.
Today I installed SimPy in my Python and I think it is installed ok, meaning
that in idle commands like:

    
    
    >>> from SimPy.Simulation import *     
    >>> now()
    

works fine.

Then I tried to configure the PyDev again so that I can use SimPy with
eclipse. In eclipse I chose Windows->Preferences->PyDev->Interpreter – Python.
Then new, gave the name Python 2.7 and added the C:\Python27\python.exe as
Interpreter executable. This is what I have done in the past and worked fine.

But now I get an error message “Error getting info on the interpreter”. From
ErrorLog I get:No output was in the standard output when trying to create the
interpreter info. The error output contains: `ImportError: No module named
site`

In my home variables I have:

`PYTHONHOME -> C:\Python27`

`PYTHONPATH -> C:\Python27\Lib;C:\Python27\Lib;C:\Python27\SimPy`

can anyone tell me what is wrong? My system is Windows 7. Thank you!


Answer: Found it after hours. It seems that in the \eclipse\plugins there were some
com.python.pydev. folders left. Removed them gone through the whole process
again. It seems to work now.
