Need Help with Wrye Bash

Post » Tue Jun 08, 2010 3:02 am

I need Wrye Bash for a mod I'm working on so I can change a esp to esm, but it won't even start. I've followed the directions that are given for this problem but I think those are outdated. Help would be appreciated because this Wrye Bash stuff is really pissing me off.

What's the specific problem?

Did you install the WryePython02 package? Did it install correctly with no errors?

Did you extract WB into the Oblivion folder so that the DATA folder merged with the DATA folder and a new MOPY folder was created under the Oblivion folder?

I installed without the installer (newest version): yes the Data file merged and yes Mopy is in my Oblivion directory.

There were no errors. I installed python, I think correctly.

I double click on the WB launcher and nothing.

Nothing at all? Not even a window popping up for a moment?

Try double-clicking bash.py and see what happens.

A a window pops up (Command Prompt I believe) and a few things flash across then it disappears. I don't know what it says because it is like one second. And yes when I click th e WB Launcher nothing happens; it appears it may start but it doesn't. No windows pop up or anything.

Try this:
If Bash refuses to start, or quits after quickly flashing up a window...

? Most likely there is a problem with your setup. Alternatively there may be a bug with Bash.

? You can usually figure out the problem by getting the bug dump and reviewing it. And if you can't puzzle it out, someone on the Elder Scrolls forums may be able to help.

? Finding the Bugdump

? Sometimes the error will be written to a file in the Mopy directory called bash.log. If that file is there, then that's the bug dump. You can open it with any text editor.

? If it's not present, then you'll have to generate the bug dump yourself...

? Generating the Bugdump

? Open a command shell (Start: Programs: Accessories: Command Prompt).

? chdir to the Mopy directory. "chdir" means "change directory". E.g.: chdir C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Mopy

? Type: c:\python25\python.exe bash.py -d

? If you have a different version/location of python, adapt the first argument accordingly.

? Doing this will cause any error messages that Bash generates on start to spew to the command shell. This is the bugdump.

? Dealing with Bugdump

? First, look at it! – especially the last several lines – this will often give you a good clue as to what the problem is, and you may be able to resolve it on your own.

? Second, see following section for common problems and their solution.


You have to do it from a command prompt you opened yourself, otherwise it will close on you.

It didn't even produce a bug dump?

Nothing at all?

I'd say reinstall Python. Use the WryePython02 package.

You might have to create a batch file like I did. Just open a Notepad document and paste this in:

C:\Python26\pythonw.exe "E:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Mopy\Wrye Bash Launcher.pyw"

You might have to change the paths, depending on where Python and Wrye Bash are located, but that's the gist of it. Save it as a .bat file, and you'll be good to go - just double click on it to start WB instead of the normal launcher.

if it amounts to anything I am experiencing the same problem. Let me fish up my thread on this and you should try some of the things there see if anything works like that.

EDIT:
well that wasn't hard to find. See if any of the posts http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?app=forums&module=forums§ion=findpost&pid=16041435 are helpful to you. (none were for me.)

I have the same problem as well.
My computer is a laptop bought a few years back, which I recently formatted and installed Windows 7 Ultimate (32bit) on.
My previous Windows installation was Windows XP Media Center Edition, and Wrye Bash worked back then. Wrye Bash isn't incompatible with Windows 7 is it? :huh:

I've installed the WryePython02 package, and then installed WryeBash my Oblivion folder. I double click on the Wrye Bash Launcher, nothing happens. I've tried restarting my computer, reinstalling Python and Wrye Bash, it still won't work. Creating a Batch file, like instucted further up on this page didn't work either.

I've also tried created a bugdump using the Command Prompt in Windows. Here are my results:

C:\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Mopy>C:\python26\python.exe bash.py -d
Traceback :
File "bash.py", line 74, in
import bosh
File "C:\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Mopy\bosh.py", line 74, in
import balt
File "C:\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Mopy\balt.py", line 38, in
import wx
ImportError: No module named wx


Help, anyone? :ahhh:

Yours is easy. WxPython didn't install properly.

If you are installing Python into the Program files directory, you need to run some of the installers from the Wrye Python file as Administrator.

When you run the WryePython02.exe it will ask for a temp directory. Go to that directory and run the installers again, Python first, then WxPython, then Comtypes and the rest. Choose run as administrator for each and make sure you don't get errors.

If you didn't install Python to the Program Files directory, then just run the wxpython installer. It must have been skipped somehow.

You were right, the installer skipped wxPython during the install. Thanks for your help, Wrye Bash now works perfectly. :clap:
