| I'm running the Solidoodle 2 printer with Python 2.7.3 (as recommended by Solidoodle). I keep getting the "Fatal Python Error" message. I've tried several Python versions, many installs without success. I'm running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate sp1 on a MacBook pro with an i7, 8gigs of Ram. I've installed all the softwares in x86 (32 bit) mode. I'd like to know where the problem originates from. Regards Ciro |

| Given the error message, my guess would be that there is a bug in the Solidoodle Python extension module. That is, it is unlikely to be a bug in Python. |

| Not really, I'm afraid. You'd have to look at the crash dump in a debugger to get more useful information. Perhaps one of the windows devs will have more concrete advice, I don't use Windows myself. |

| Antoine: do you know anything about this message? Fatal Python error: PyEval_RestoreThread: NULL tstate Is there a serious possibility that it could indicate a CPython error, as opposed to an extension author error? Could running Windows on Mac hardware make a difference? Leonardo: You should have quoted the full error message instead of making each person search the image. Also, Please don't quote entire messages in your replies (which means deleting them if replying with a mail program). They are already visible above your reply and constitute noise that makes scrolling in the web interface more tedious. We will likely close this, at least for now, because there is currently no basis for action on our part. 1. From years of experience with such reports, we can be fairly certain that the problem is with the third party extension code. It is known that such code can crash CPython if it misuses the C API. We cannot prevent that without adding unacceptible overhead. 2. If there is a bug in CPython, then to do anything, we would need either Python code or proper C code that causes the crash. The latter would likely require cooperation of the Solidoodle extension authors. For us to do anything, we need evidence in the form of (minimal) code we can run that there is a CPython bug. Retrying under OS X is a good idea. You could try testing the windows python installation with the test suite (python -m test.regrtest in a command window) but there are two problems when doing this with a user installation, as opposed to the test buildbots: there will be (expected) error boxes that you have to dismiss by hitting ; and there will be a few reported errors that are not really errors in python itself. |

| Well, the error message comes from a misuse of the PyEval_RestoreThread() (by passing it a NULL argument), either directly or by using another API such as Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS which calls that function. The problem is likely to be in the Solidoodle extension. Whatever the source of the problem, though, only a low-level C traceback would allow to tell. I agree with closing, stock Python is very unlikely to produce such tracebacks. |

| Terry, I've tried installing on Mac at least 6 times and I still get error messages. I'm dealing with Solidoodle with no success. I have an appointment with a 3d Print Lab on Jan 3rd (50 miles away) to help me resolve my issues. Regards Ciro On Fri, Dec 28, 2012 at 5:07 PM, Terry J.

Ciro, it seems you should wait a bit for Solidoodle's answer if you asked them a question. I don't know about them, but if they're a volunteer-run project you can't expect them to answer all requests very quickly. |

| Actually Antoine, Solidoodle has sent 2 email replies, 1 was a video link to some British guy opening his box which wasn't packed like mine and had missing parts. and the second email was just as useless stating that maybe I'm running both platforms at the same time which I ain't... In any case I went ahead and booked my appointment, I just want it to work. Thanks for your time. Happy Holidays!

| OK, given Antoine's reply, I am going to close this until there is actionable information. |
