Ida Python Plugin Not Found
Ida Python Plugin Not Found In The World
Python Plugin extends IntelliJ IDEA with the full-scale functionality for Python development. Before you start working with Python, make sure that Python plugin is installed and enabled. Also make sure that the following prerequisites are met: Python SDK is downloaded and installed on your machine.
I am trying to install IDA Pro 5.5 on a windows 7 machine. I have installed python 2.5. When starting IDA, i get error msg that init.py failed. While looking inside this file, i found that it is importing _idaapi module, but I cannot find this module anywhere in IDA installation directory. There is a python module named idaapi.py which is also importing _idaapi. I also tried downloading IDAPython separately, but it is not working still. Can anybody suggest something to get rid of this error and make my IDA working properly with IDAPython installed?Thanks in advance-Sanjay

Make sure that your Python interpreter is 32 bit and not a more recently compiled 64 bit version, even if you are running a 64 bit OS. If you need to compile your own you will need the Development kit for your version of IDA. Back in the 5.5 days you had to actually build your own, but idapython is now included as part of the 6.x versions of today.
