How to install plugins on Windows Topic is solved

[LordMax]

Hi!

I have tried to intall some plugins on my Domoticz server running on a windows machine. But I get the error :

Code: Select all

Failed dynamic library load, install the latest libpython3.x library that is available for your platform.

I have tried to intall the libpython but I cannot figure out how to do so. I have python 32bit and a domoticz version of 2020.2. Thanks beforehand!

Best regards Max

Hi!

I tried to remove the current python and install it again with the version 3.5.3, but I still get the same error. Something weird I notice is that the first time you intstall python domoticz take a bit longer to start, maybe 10 seconds extra, then if you restart it it will boot up almost instantly...

Solved! It hade to be installed inside program files x86 instead of users folder!!

Hi,

What had to be installed in the Program Files (x86) folder? Python?
I'm having an issue trying to get plugins to work as well, but in my case Domoticz sees Python and the PluginSystem shows started with no errors but nothing shows in the hardware.
