Python

Hi, I'm using SPSS 19 and I believe I have installed IBM SPSS Statistics Programmability Extension and the plug in correctly. However when I test if Python is accessible by running:

BEGIN PROGRAM.
print "ok"
END PROGRAM.

Error # 6887. Command name: BEGIN PROGRAM
External program failed during initialization.

Not sure what to do. Can anyone help?

By the way, I have installed 2.6, 2.6, 3.7. Help please

You don't show that you invoke Python.
But I don't know anything about it.

Here's what Bruce posted a few weeks ago.
