Process finished with exit code -1073741515 (0xC0000135)

Question

im running a python script and it used to work, even does on my laptop right now but not on my other computer - i just get the error code:

Process finished with exit code -1073741515 (0xC0000135)

I dont get any other results - not even from "print" commands at the beginning of the file.

I havent found anything specific to that.. I re-installed python (2.7.9), pygame (1.9.1) and even pycharm (tried 4.5 first, now with 5.0 - same result)

Does anyone know what that error code means? I couldnt find anything about it.

Answer 1

reinstall python – you don't have python33.dll in c:\WINDOWS\system32\

Maybe you have different python versions – look at folders in root of c:

If yes, then point to your version of python.exe in pyCharm > Settings > Project Interpreter

I encountered the same error when running .py in PyCharm on Windows. Inspired by https://thenewboston.com/forum/topic.php?id=10088, I uninstalled and reinstalled Python. When reinstalling, I checked the ADD PYTHON TO THE PATH Option. After recreating the virtual environment in PyCharm, the error was gone.

Update: On another Windows PC (64-bit), I encountered the same error where reinstalling Python was not enough. I tried two things.

1. Uninstalling 32-bit Python and installing 64-bit Python. Namely downloading python-3.6.4-amd64.exe instead of python-3.6.4.exe
2. Recreating the Pycharm project from github.

Between the two actions, the error was gone.

This may be due to another program locking that memory location. Before you try more drastic measures, know that restarting the computer fixed the problem for me.

If you're trying create a .svm use dlib probably the problem is in .xml, some image that you use is cause the problem. Try to create a new .xml putting out a image(any image) or remove that your .xml and test, try this even you find out the image problem.

For exemple, the image "treinamento3.jpg" was the problem. I removed this command line:

< image file='delirium\treinamento3.jpg'>
    < box top='213' left='86' width='46' height='49'/ >
    < box top='531' left='47' width='125' height='123'/ >
  < /image >

from my .xml for solve my problem.
