Dear Jun,
Can you please tell us how we can improve the instructions so that other users do not get confused? Which part of my instructions below was most helpful for you?

Hi, Dr. Troyer,
Thanks for the reply. I followed your instructions on installing ALPS and it went just fine. Now I can run the tutorials. Thanks a lot!
Best, Jun

Dear Jun
you should not have to install Python and actually the extensions cannot work with any version of Python except the one they were compiled against, which is the one in Vistrails.
do you install the software into any nonstandard path or just into C:\Program Files ?
I would like to ask you to do the following:
Delete Vistrails and the ALPS Vistrails extensions
reinstall only Vistrails
Launch Vistraiks and test whether it works on your machine
if it does install ALPS and the ALPS Vistrails extensions
Check that there is a pyalps directory somewhere inside the Vistrails directory ( inside a site-packages directory)
if that works try to run the vispython command and then type import pyalps
thank you for helping us test this

Hi Jun
Do you use the vispython command or call python directly?

Hi All, I am a beginner to the ALPS and am eager to try the new version of ALPS.
I installed the alps-2.0.0b1-windows.exe and then python and Vistrails and finally alps-vistrails-2.0.0b1-windows.exe. Then I tried to run the tutorial in the Exact Diagonalization in the directory C:\Program Files\ALPS\tutorials\ed-01-sparsediag,
However, I could not either run tutorial1a.py or ed-01-sparsediag.vt. For the former, it said "ImportError: No module named pyalps", for later, it showed a command window and initializing something and reached "initializing abstraction "and would not proceed at all.
I wonder if anyone could help me on this issue. Thanks a lot!
Best, Jun
