What is wrong with this SimPy installation?

Question

Alright, I have tried a bunch of times the

python setup.py install

command from my command prompt, and this is what I'm getting:

SCREEN

And when trying this:

from SimPy.Simulation import *

on Idle, I get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Python30/pruebas/prueba1", line 1, in <module>
    from SimPy.Simulation import *
  File "C:\Python30\SimPy\Simulation.py", line 320
    print 'SimPy.Simulation %s' %__version__,
                              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Answer 1

Not every module supports python 3 - in fact, 90% or more of the modules are for 2.x now.

you should use 2.5 or 2.6 for this module, or find a simpy that is compatible with 3.0.

you can also run the 2->3 upgrade script to modify your simpy source, but I don't suggest doing that.

Answer 2

I have a similar error, and I Installed python 2.6.4, so I don't think you can solve your problem using an older version of python.
