#117 Installing WinPython v3.3.5.0 (x64) on a Windows Server 2003 (x64)
Hi all,
I am trying to install WinPython v3.3.5.0 (x64) on a Windows Server 2003 (64-bits).
Is that even possible ?
The spyder IDE cannot lauch however, and crashes the second time I try to open it. Whenever I reset its default settings and try to run it from the command prompt, a spyder_error file is created and saying :
"Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks for any help.
Looks like a problem with the zmq lib under older Windows versions.
