Why are we using ibridge py?

I followed the instructions:

  1. Use virtual environment
  2. Use the proper python version i.e 3.9.5
  3. latest version of ibridge py
  4. Scripts fail 95% of the time

Hi Ramiro,



The error occurs due to a difference in the version of python and the corresponding IBridgePy package. You can refer to this FAQ to learn about the error. Also, you can follow the steps in this video to setup IBridgePy on your system.



Hope this helps!



Thanks,

Hi Ramiro,



This error is most likely due to an incompatible version of Anaconda Python or due to an older version of IBridgePy. As you can check in this documentation, there are some specific Anaconda Python versions for which IBridgePy is compatible. You can try updating the version as per the specifications. Please do let us know if you face any issues with the same.



Hope this helps!



Thanks,

Akshay
