Error on execution
Hi,
First, thanks for this development. I've installed your package and I obtain an error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Gourmet.pyw", line 2, in ?
File "zipextimporter.pyo", line 78, in load_module
File "gtk\__init__.pyo", line 37, in ?

Could help me ?
Thanks
Hmm
Hmm, Do you have GTK installed in your system? (That should not matter, but just curious) I thought i fixed that, but maybe not. I will check it out.
EDIT:Well, Are you sure that you're running it from the menu (or GourmetPortable.exe?) because it needs to redirect the GTK dir...

noo...
I tested this on an XPSP2 deep freezed school computer. I forgot to mention, the folder gets backed up fine, but is not restored. So 2 folders are left after the second run, a backup and the first one.
I'll take a closer look at the source for you, and i'll test it on another, more frequently updated computer.

GTK is not installed
Hi,
I didn't install anything about GTK. I just downloaded and executed the package "Gourmet_Portable_0.8.5.14_Development_Test_1.paf.exe". Is there anything to do before execute "GourmetPortable.exe" ?
Thanks
No, the required components
No, the required components that the program needs are already in the package.

Hi Kai
THanks for new dev test, will regshot tonnight. Hust wanted to see if this is latest version. Wsa thinking if not it may be worth updating the base app before proceeding too much as you may get the portable wrapper right up to standard and then find that when you drop the latest version into the wrapper it leaves behind things the previous version didn't.

Is it issues with version 0.13.8 or 0.14.5 that you are having trouble with?
Also what are the exact nature of the problem. I myself wont be able to help but hopefully one of the gurus here can assist once you have identified the problem.

Can't get it too work
Hi all,
When I execute GourmetPortable nothing happens. I don't get a splash but GourmetPortable shows up in the windows task manager.
Any ideas?
Steve

Can you please specify the
Can you please specify the path you installed Gourmetportable to.
eg. X:\PortableApps\Gourmet Portable
Does Gourmet itself show or just GourmetPortable? There ahould be 2 seperate processes.
Also you are using SP2 which may cause an issue but not necessarily. Are you running with Admin Rights? And are you using this in the PortableApps.com Menu? if there is any other info you think would help please let us know.

Happened to me too
I was trying to use it on my schools computers which have xp on them (unsure of the servicepack) and all that would start was GourmetPortable.exe. There was no gourmet.exe in the taskmanager. I was not using the portableapps menu.
Edit: sorry ;(
May the Shwartz be with you
Same here
Tried dev test 2, only GourmetPortable.exe starts and loads the cpu heavily. Seems that it fails to start gourmet.exe, it doesn't even appear for a second. I guess there's a infinite loop before it should start gourmet.exe. I'm using Win XP with SP3.
Stevesmarsbar, Can you
Stevesmarsbar, Can you confirm if you were using the PAM menu or are you using an alternative such as Geek.Menu, PStart or Launchy? Also if you could supply the other details it would be appreciated.

won't start
cpu goes up to 30% and gourmet process is running in the taskmanager, but no window appears. Probably the same error like some other had above. I checked several installations. No one worked. Try it on several Systems (all WinXP). Nothing. I would appreciate if you could fix that.
thx, Tom

Still being maintained?
I just downloaded this, it seems to launch perfectly on Win7 Ultimate x64... Is it still being maintained/updated? This is one of my favorite programs and I would love to see it being used with the current version. Thanks!
