Hi,

I have installed Eclipse along with Pydev (details below).  I have been following
the "Getting Started" steps found on fabioz.com:
http://fabioz.com/pydev/manual_101_root.html

I have successfully run the "Hello World" program, but I get the following error
when trying to start the debugger: "Unexpected error setting up the debugger"

The console contains the following information: 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\eclipse\plugins\org.python.pydev.debug_1.3.24\pysrc\pydevd.py", line
4, in <module>
    from pydevd_comm import  CMD_CHANGE_VARIABLE,\
  File "C:\eclipse\plugins\org.python.pydev.debug_1.3.24\pysrc\pydevd_comm.py",
line 61, in <module>
    from socket import socket
  File "C:\Python26\lib\socket.py", line 46, in <module>
    import _socket
ImportError: DLL load failed: The application has failed to start because its
side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log
for more detail.

Here is the information on my installation:

OS: Vista Home 64-bit
Eclipse version: 3.4.1
Python version: 2.6
Pydev version: 1.3.24

I am running on an HP Pavilion PC, and I noticed that there is an installation
of Python 2.5 in the c:\hp\bin\python directory.  Could I be having DLL version
conflicts with this installation?  My Pydev PYTHONPATH values all point to the
Python26 installation.

Thanks in advance for you help!

-Scott
