Getting pretty frustrated with this. I installed pygtk 2.24, pycairo 1.8.10, and pyobject 2.28.3 all for my 32 bit system and my installed Python version of 2.7. I have GTK+ installed and working.

Also, I have the path to “C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0” set in sys.path (where pygtk and pobject reside) and my Path system variable for GTK_BASEPATH is set to C:\gtk, where GTK+ resides.

I get this error when I attempt to import gtk:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in <module>
    import gtk
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gtk\__init__.py", line 30, in <module>
    import gobject as _gobject
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gobject\__init__.py", line 26, in <module>
    from glib import spawn_async, idle_add, timeout_add, timeout_add_seconds, \
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\glib\__init__.py", line 22, in <module>
    from glib._glib import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.

I can’t figure out what’s wrong. Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT

Found this post, and I found a variable for GtkSharp (don’t know where it came from) but removing it did not help.

    Try uninstalling all of that (including GTK+, unless something else needs it) and use the PyGTK all-in-one installer instead.
