Teststand Python Step Error

[kclayt88]

I'm a new user of Teststand and I am attempting to set up a step to call a Python script. But in the Python Step Configure window I'm getting the error "Invalid Python Version. Make sure required version of python is installed and added to PATH environment variable." I don't know what this means or what I need to do to make this work.

Any suggestions for fixing this would be much appreciated!

TestStand supports CPython interpreter. Hence, make sure the following is done:

• Install python from www.python.org
• Make sure bitness of TestStand and installed python match
• When installing python from python.org, there will be an option to add the python path to the environment variable. This is disabled by default and you should enable it when installing.
