I am trying to download pyserial and all the installation and everything worked out fine. However, when I try to import it, a traceback is called with the ending error of what pretty much looks like a problem with serialwin32/win32.py
Finding out more, I think it might be a problem with pyserial not working with Python64-bit. Does anybody have any suggestions for this? I can just install Python32 but I wanna know if there is anything I can do to stay with Python64
EDIT:
I was fed up with it so I reinstalled python as python32-bit. but when I try to import serial again, this message shows up in my shell:
>>> import serial
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "c:\pyserial-2.7\serial\__init__.py", line 19, in <module>
from serial.serialwin32 import *
File "c:\pyserial-2.7\serial\serialwin32.py", line 12, in <module>
from serial import win32
File "c:\pyserial-2.7\serial\win32.py", line 196
MAXDWORD = 4294967295L # Variable c_uint
Why is this happening please help
EDIT (2):
this was due to change from python 2/3. pyserial is SUPPOSED to work for python 3.x but it apparently doesn't sometimes, so it would be good to run 2to3.py on the pyserial directory and it'll work like a charm. Hopefully.
