cannot find plumber show file

Date:10/01/2010
Submitted by: klebedaja klebedaja
Hi,
I've installed Plumber and when I've started it I got this error.
I have choose d:/projects to install plumber to and I've extracted it earlier in My Documents\Downloads\plumber. I did everything as written in install tutorial and i have tried two times. I would like to try plumber so if anyone can help me it would be great.
Here is the error from the script editor:

# Initialize Plunger Session  #
----------------------------------
  - Plumber Home Directory:
    //Craterserver/Users/ivan/My Documents/Plumber/
  - Plumber Project Path:
    D:/projects/Plumber/

--------------------
# Plumber Build UI #
--------------------
# Error: global name 'pyPlumb_Show' is not defined
# Traceback (most recent call last):
#   File "<maya console>", line 4, in <module>
#   File "C:/Documents and Settings/rob/My Documents/maya/2009/scripts\pythonPlumber.py", line 476, in pyPlumberInitialize
#   File "C:/Documents and Settings/rob/My Documents/maya/2009/scripts\pythonPlumber.py", line 617, in pyPlumberMakeUI
# NameError: global name 'pyPlumb_Show' is not defined #

    There is an updated version of Plumber uploaded. Sorry about the bug. To install plumber you must first remove the previous Plumber installation. To do this delete the directory: C:/Documents and Settings/[USER]/Plumber

    I see the error with the website -- I'll fix it later today. Regarding your error. 1) Completely uninstall Plumber by deleting the pythonPlumber.pyc file AND deleting the Plumber directory at: "C:/Documents and Settings/[user]/My Documents/Plumber"? 2) Download the current version of Plumber from Creative Crash. Take the new pythonPlumber.pyc and copy it to: "C:/Documents and Settings/[user]/My Documents/maya/scripts/pythonPlumber.pyc"? 3) Follow the regular installation instructions from here out. Let me know if this works. Thanks!

    I have also got the same issue using the latest download. Using windows vista x64 Maya 2011. we cant even see the Wrench-icon.bmp when it asks for it, even though it is there in the folder but not visable to select! most odd we tried changing it to xpm not no good, still getting the show file error. Any other ideas?

    Stephen, I am in the middle of moving right now -- hopefully for the last time for a while. At some point in the next couple of weeks I will look into this and fix it, but I unfortunately cannot help you right now. I will send a message to your account here when I figure it out. Thank you for your post.
