Running Python Scripts no longer works

I’m getting this error message when running Python scripts since yesterday when I installed update 6.16

---------------------------

Exception Occured

Message: No module named rhinoscript.application

Regular Rhino scripts work.

Hello - I’d try a repair on the Rhino installation from Windows control panel - does that help?

Sadly no dice, I found this thread by Mitch : Major snafu with python/rhinoscriptsyntax and a Rhino freeze but my directory contains a bunch of files.

So your folder:

“C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\Plug-ins\IronPython Scripting (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript”

has the ‘application.py’ file, is that correct?

Does it also have ‘init.py’?

Hi Pascal

The directory has neither of the files and the directory that I have is: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)

No “Scripting” name.

pascal · July 16, 2019, 10:31pm

Yeah… I have one of each, the one with Scripting in the name appears to be from 6.0… So, can you tell me what folders you see in ‘lib’ if any? Are there any sub-folders inside
\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)?

Inside of \IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib:

That is weird - just as a test, try dropping these files into your lib\rhinoscript folder:

application.py (43.2 KB)
init.py|attachment (654 Bytes)

Well we got a new error now:

Did I get them all?

Yes! Fantastic! Thanks so much.

pascal · July 16, 2019, 10:55pm

OK, good… but still… @stevebaer - do you know how this could happen? Some but not all files missing from
\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript\

If you delete that folder, Rhino will repair it the next time you run Rhino.

pascal · July 16, 2019, 11:18pm

Thanks! I did not know that.
