Problem with windows install

Community matplotlib-users
#1

I am trying to install matplotlib on my office Windows computer. I
have installed the following:
python-2.4.3.msi
numpy-1.0b5.win32-py2.4.exe
scipy-0.5.1.win32-py2.4.exe
matplotlib-0.87.5.win32-py2.4.exe

on a completely fresh install.

I am getting the following message:
H:\>python
Python 2.4.3 (#69, Mar 29 2006, 17:35:34) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import pylab

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pylab.py", line 1, in ?
    from matplotlib.pylab import *
ImportError: No module named matplotlib.pylab

import matplotlib

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named matplotlib

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Ryan

I had the same problem today, and solved it by using
matplotlib-0.87.2.win32-py2.4.exe

Thanks to Darren and David. Chris Barker answered my question on the
Numpy list (I started over there with a Scipy/Numpy compatibility
problem and switched to this list when it was just matplotlib that
wasn't working). I don't know if the mpl sourceforge binaries are
fixed yet, but Chris referred me to these:
http://euclid.uits.iupui.edu/mplfiles/
which work great. I am up and running in Windows.
