Problem with Python interpreter in Eclipse

Question

When trying to set the interpreter for python in Eclipse by choosing the executable, clicking OK displays "An error has occured." Does the interpreter name matter?

Could you provide more detail on what steps you did? What version of Python and Pydev are you using? — Kiv

Additionally, you can find more details about the error by selecting Window->Show View->Error Log — David Citron

I had a similar problems with this on Mac OS X. My problem was that I had a space in Eclipse's application path, e.g. "/Applications/eclipse 3.3/Eclipse".

I changed the folder name to "/Applications/eclipse3.3" and it fixed it.

Testing/running your apps on the command line is the safest bet, especially when writing threaded applications (you can kill your threadlocked program without killing eclipse)
