The error indicates that Inkscape is not using the included python bundle to run the effects. We ship python with Inkscape in order to avoid issues like this. Where did you download the zip file? Is there a folder called "python" in the root inkscape directory?
In 0.45pre2 the effects didn't work either, and then I installed Python24.
Sorry I missed your report the first time.
I uninistalled Python24 from the Add/remove programs window, and then unzipped the new 0.45-1 version to the C;\Program Files\Inkcape path (it's just unzipping, doesn't really ' install' anything) It does indeed give me a folder called python. If I run the /groups to pngs /script I get an error message which refers to the non-existing C:\Python24. Also, Inkscape then freezes
C:\Python24 doesn't exist? The messages would seem to indicate otherwise. I'm at a bit of a loss as I don't know how inkscape was set up to locate the relative python in preference to the platform python.
Can anyone else reproduce this?
Can anyone else offer any debugging suggestions?
