Installing SOAPpy on Python on Windows

Download the latest official release from http://pywebsvcs.sourceforge.net
(Alternatively, https://pypi.python.org/pypi/SOAPpy )
Extract it.
In the command prompt navigate to the folder that you extracted the SOAPpy.
Type
python setup.py install
press ENTER.

If you get an "SyntaxError: from __future__ imports must occur at the beginning of the file" error, then find the Client.py, Server.py and Types.py files.
Locate the given lines in all 3 py files:

ident = '$Id: Server.py,v 1.21 2005/02/15 16:32:22 warnes Exp $'
from version import __version__
from __future__ import nested_scopes

and cut the "from __future__ import nested_scopes" lines and paste it above of the "ident =" line, as below.

from __future__ import nested_scopes
ident = '$Id: Server.py,v 1.21 2005/02/15 16:32:22 warnes Exp $'
from version import __version__

Save the files and re-execute the
python setup.py install
command. It should work.

In 0.11.6 I had to update GSIServer.py, as well.

Installing PyXML on Python on Windows

You download the latest PyXML distribution for your Python from http://pyxml.sourceforge.net.
But it said that it could not find the correct Python version?

Simply open the downloaded PyXML exe file with Notepad++, search for the Python version string which the PyXML wants (e.g., 2.4). Edit the 2.4 with your Python version (e.g., 2.5). Save the file.
And execute the exe file.
It should install the PyXML.
