having bought my first macbook I am not very experienced in debugging the libraries and a bit at a loss. Upon execution of my python script the following error report shows up:

    How did you install python as that path is not the standard OS X one

  • Thanks for the quick answer mate. Let us say there was a lot of experimentation. I installed quite a few libraries, some of them rather voluminous and with their own python distributions. May I ask how you what the correct path is and how i might be able to change that?

  • The issue is if done correctly then the old path is still there. From your comment the best way would be reinstall the OS from scratch. Try using /usr/bin/python to start the python this should be the OS X supplied one, if it is not then you have to reinstall OS X

  • Hey Mark, that did something (now simple custom imports cloud my day). So, do I assume correctly that a non system interpreter is called by "python"? In this case I should be able to simply change the reference, right?

  • Look at your path to fix that

Welcome to software debugging. That topic is too broad to convey in a short answer here, but hopefully some context and guidelines will help.

  1. Your Python program itself crashed - so you don't easily know what call or sequence of calls caused the error from the container crashing.
  2. Gather details like what version of Python is running, what version of each library.
  3. Try enabling debug flags for the libraries or run the python script in a python debugger so you can know where the crash ocurrs.

Once or have that level of detail, you'll start to isolate the issue by reducing the complexity of the code by removing all that's necessary to either stop crash or have a minimal example of the crashing behavior (say 10 lines of Python plus whatever data setup is needed) and ask about that in Stack Overflow.
