If you have a problem with a members signature, I think you need to bring it to the attention of a Mod.

I don't have any problem with his sig, and if I did, I'd just ignore it.

People are perfectly welcome to have a reasonable length signature here with any content they'd like. As long as it isn't illegal or lewd I don't see a problem with it. As long as they aren't obviously SPAM posting to get that "ad" seen.

Open a new instance of notepad, showing a completely empty file. Copy-paste from the web page again, making certain to copy from the text-box and not from the syntax-colored page content.

The second error means that one of the embedded machine code functions in the Python script attempted to access invalid memory. But (a) I have absolutely no idea in hell what could be causing that and (b) when I simulate generating an access violation I get the exception-trace window I added for adeptkey v2. I'd say that you're still running v1, except the line numbers from the exception traces match v2.

I'm hoping the second error is somehow an artifact of the encoding problem causing the first error. If not, I'm out of ideas.

Okay, I am a real computer dope, so please forgive me. I was saving the color-page, merely downloading and renaming. So, I copied the text, pasted into notebook, and then saved as adeptkey.pyw, all files, in python26. I used the command prompt as administrator, and typed C:/Python26>python.exe adeptkey.pyw

This is the error message I got, in and ADEPT Key box:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "adeptkey.pyw", line 197, in main
retrieve_key(keypath)
File "adeptkey.pyw", line 139, in retrieve_key
vendor = cpuid0()
File "adeptkey.pyw", line 102, in cpuid0
cpuid0__(buffer)
WindowsError: exception: access violation writing 0x01A3E5F8

When I tried the second, I got:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "adeptkey.pyw", line 198, in main
retrieve_key(keypath)
File "adeptkey.pyw", line 140, in retrieve_key

What has that to do with anything in this thread?

Go back to pasebin. Click the link at the top labeled download and then give the script the proper name of adeptkey.pyw and save it. Then try running it. It's what I did.

[Sydney's Mom]

Tried something else.
C:\>python26
C:\Python26>python.exe
Python2.6.2 ,r261:67517, Dec 4 2008, 16:51:00> [MSC v.1500 32 bit <Intel>] on win32
type "help", "copyright"' "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>>

Then I typed adeptkey.pyw

I got

Traceback <most recent call last>:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'adeptkey' is not defined
>>>


so it looks like python is working, correct? I am just doing something wrong in saving adeptkey.pyw. I copied and pasted from text bin, then saved as All Files adeptkey.pyw in Python26.

Thanks for your help. As I indicated, Adeptdecrypt is working (just asking for a key I don't have). I did the exact same thing with both. I am running the command prompt as administrator.

Thanks, Debra

It looks like you're getting python open ok. With the python editor open, click on "file" "new". You will get a little box asking if you want to save it as a python script, click ok and then paste the information you copied from pastebin in here. Then save the script with the name adeptkey.pyw and see if that works for you.

cheers

Here we go. For some reason, adeptdecrypt saved as a Python file (.py). But adeptkey saves as a Python file (No console) (.pyw).

[Sydney's Mom]

Jswolf was nice enough to send me a zip copy of the file. I extracted it into python26, into epub and onto my desktop. The result was the same. If I double clicked on it, I got a python exe screen, with an adept key error box on top, which says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Debra\Desktop\adeptkey02.py", line 197, in main
retrieve_key(keypath)
File "C:\Users\Debra\Desktop\adeptkey02.py", line 139, in retrieve_key
vendor = cpuid0()
File "C:\Users\Debra\Desktop\adeptkey02.py", line 102, in cpuid0
cpuid0__(buffer)
WindowsError: exception: access violation writing 0x01ABE6F0

If I use the command prompt, I get
'adeptkey.pyw' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

[Sydney's Mom]

Here is the pycrypto I installed:

pycrypto-2.0.1.win32-py2.6.exe

I just can't figure this out. Like I said, adeptdecrypt works fine. I have tried just about everything I can think of.
