I have just installed a new computer with Boa
Constructor and Boa throws up and an error when i try
to start it.

The error i get is;
'module' object haas no attribute 'STC_LEX_ASP'

I am running Python 2.4.3 and wxPython 2.7.1.2

I got the same error with boa 0.4.4 after having updated to
wxPython 2.7.1.2.

I think it's because of the upgrade to Scintilla 1.70 for
wx.stc.StyledTextCtrl.

I've tried to update boa to the last cvs version. Boa can
start now, but I get a few errors in some cases with the
designer.

The problem is that Boa Constructor 0.4.4 requires wxPython 2.6.2.1. Any more recent versions of wxPython begins to start introducing incompatibilities (eg, wx.NotebookSizer removed from wxPython 2.7.1.1, and wx.stc.STC_LEX_ASP and wx.stc.STC_LEX_PHP are removed from wxPython 2.6.3.0).

Therefore to use Boa Constructor 0.4.4 you have two choices:

1. download and use wxPython 2.6.2.1
2. use your newer wxPython but follow the Anonymous CVS Access instructions at <https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=1909> and get the latest source by checking out the "boa" directory, and replacing Lib/site-packages/boa-constructor with it. I know this to work for wxPython 2.8.1.1.
