@vuce:
I have made a test build in which the search method for Python modules should be a little more robust - may be this could solve your Import issue:

Topic: [REQUESTS] Minimal Electrum builds for Windows - page 14. (Read 47207 times)
Currently, this is the only way to have both the console and GUI open (in my build, at least).
I didn't realize that the GUI wouldn't open for you, after that error message.
I have a few questions for you, to help me understand the cause of this issue:
1/ what is your version of Windows?
Windows 7, 64 bitI didn't realize that the GUI wouldn't open for you, after that error message.

2/ by any chance, did you manually install another version of Python at some point?
Had python 2.6 and python 2.7 installed long before I started using electrum. Tried removing python 2.6 but it doesn't help.Quote
3/ did you make any edits to the source code (in the Electrum_SysFiles folder)?
No, no editsThanks for the answers.
Also, just curious, have you tried to "manually" install Electrum (as per the instructions at http://ecdsa.org/electrum/) ?
I wonder if this issue is specific to my builds or not.
tried that, but get the same error as when trying to open a gui:
Code:
C:\Electrum-0.58>python electrum
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "electrum", line 139, in
import electrum.gui_qt as gui
ImportError: No module named electrum.gui_qt
that terminates execution.

@flatfly: did you finally fix the menu bug?
could you make public all the modifications that you made to the code? I may want to merge that fix into the main branch.

OK, now that it has been confirmed to work, here's the fix (more of a workaround really, but it does the job just fine):
Just insert the following code at line 205 in gui_qt,
(that's at the end of class ElectrumWindow, right after the self.setWindowTitle( title ) and self.show() lines)

tabs.setCurrentIndex (2)
tabs.setCurrentIndex (3)
tabs.setCurrentIndex (0)
tabs.setCurrentIndex (3)
tabs.setCurrentIndex (0)
Sorry, no time to elaborate on why it works, I gotta go right now (can provide more info later if needed)
Everything works fine now! Please take a look at the colors: http://i48.tinypic.com/73ibee.jpg
As you see, in Vista it is a bit difficult to clearly distinguish this colors. Would it be possible to choose a kind of orange/red background for the frozen addresses?
Another question: Thomas wrote some days ago, that the consolas font could be added as an option. Is this realizable?
I send you some bacon
Any idea yet?As you see, in Vista it is a bit difficult to clearly distinguish this colors. Would it be possible to choose a kind of orange/red background for the frozen addresses?

Not yet, my schedule is rather busy at the moment, but I'll come back to you in the next few days!
Excellent progress! Donation on it's way!
I think i found one mini external bug: "Download" and "Portable" link is the same for v0.58.
And a question: Addresses are now huge compared to label names (they look tiny). Is it normal that the font for "Label" tab is different?
Thanks.

Thanks again for the nice donation!
Thanks for reporting both issues, I will fix the label fonts and download URLs.

Can you try to connect to ecdsa.org instead?
You will need to select it first through the GUI connection dialog first.

yup, tried that, this works perfectly in console mode, but it still won't connect in gui mode.
Ok, now we're making some progress. Looks like a problem with the gui, specifically. Could you try to just type 'electrum' at the console? This will launch the GUI window, while still having the console open. I am mostly interested in any errors and tracebacks you might get in the console then.
Code:
13-Jun-12 1:13:42.86> electrum
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "electrum", line 139, in
import electrum.gui_qt as gui
ImportError: No module named electrum.gui_qt
OK, this error can be ignored.
Please try the following: rename your wallet file to electrum.baddat (or anything else),
restart the application and select the option to restore the wallet (have your seed ready).
It will then proceed to regenerate all of your addresses (except the imported ones) and
hopefully, you will be able to connect fine afterwards.
(I remember having a similar issue a few months ago and that's how I fixed it.)
It's not a problem, it works with the old wallet as long as I don't change servers, but there's still some kind of a bug somewhere, obviously. Is there any other way of having a console and gui open at the same time apart from running "electrum" command (that prints the error above and it won't open the gui)?

It seems that they were down, but now it works again, except for ecdsa.org

Many thanks for that!
I need to wait for a confirmation before I can play around and do some testing with the wallet...
Are you still not able to connect? Ecdsa.org works fine for me...
I reverted to the older (working) wallet. Seems like every time server is changed wallet changes in some way, and this doesn't quite comply. It's working ok with the older one.I need to wait for a confirmation before I can play around and do some testing with the wallet...

Also, is there anything particular about the wallet that has changed recently (such as frozen, prioritized, or newly imported addresses)?
Oh yes, that might be relevant but I totally forgot. I had one prioritized and one frozen address (I was just playing around with that). I also had expert mode checked and display zeroes set to 2. I will try to remove that and test again.edit: no joy, still the same. this is what I see. After a restart I see nothing as it wouldn't connect at all. I tried all three servers I have available (ecdsa.org, electrum.bitcoins.sk, electrum.novit.ro), none of them would work.
OK, could you try in console mode? Perhaps that will give us some additional clues / error messages...
To enter console mode, just start Electrum while holding down the SHIFT key.
Then try a simple online command, such as 'electrum balance' (without the quotes)
Any error messages when you do that?
13-Jun-12 0:09:50.92> electrum balance
Connected to btcback.com:50001
0
Balance shouldn't be 0 though... There are no error messages.
edit: ok, ecdsa server works fine in console mode, even when it doesn't in gui.
