this error and there seems to be no shortage of "solutions". So my
question is, does anybody have a clean set of instructions on how to get
python working on a windows install of postgres; any version. I'm
flexible, I can start fresh, I don't care which versions, I don't care
if it's 32 bit or 64 bit. I just want to try it out.

How did you install Postgres and from what source?

Where and when are you getting the error message?


Thanks,
Mike

Hi, I installed postgres from http://www.postgresql.org/ . I have version 94 and 95 installed and running on my windows 7 machine in 64 bit. I use pgAdmin and these installs are  running with no problems. I get the aforementioned error message when  I execute: " 
CREATE EXTENSION plpython3u
  SCHEMA pg_catalog
  VERSION "1.0";'

Also when I try "CREATE PROCEDURAL LANGUAGE 'plpython3u', same result.Dependency walker shows a dependency on PYTHON33.DLL and there is no such file as that either in /lib or /bin. So, according to various "solution", I should be able to download this missing DLL . I've not done this yet because 1) it seems suspicious that a DLL is missing from the install and 2) I don't tend to trust sites that offer free DLLs. Virus city.
