Hi again, I did get pspp 8.5 installed on my machine but not a newer version. I guess I will be happy with that for now and keep learning. I will google the error message. What a great idea. I love using this program for my stats students so they can keep using it after they graduate but I do not like when they have downloading problems. With that I am almost tempted to just go back to SPSS and know that they will never use it again after they graduate. Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it. Julia
If you post the exact error message, I can google it and see if we
can figure out when python27 cannot be uninstalled.
I assume these errors occur when you issue the command "sudo port
uninstall installed"?

Any thoughts?
Julia, I'd follow Friedrich's advice below and see
how that goes. -Alan

maybe several times. Then
sudo port install pspp
to recover from any misconfigured or
incomplete packages. Then test
pspp --version
This should look like this
pool8021x172-7:~
fritz$ pspp --version

You should be able to start pspp with
gui from the terminal with
psppire
To see if you have any previous version
installed somewhere, you could try
which pspp
pool8021x172-7:~
fritz$ which pspp
/opt/local/bin/pspp
pool8021x172-7:~
fritz$
This shows you that pspp is installed in
/opt/local/bin where it is supposed to be. pspp will
not be visible in the
„Program“ folder where programs are
usually installed. So you have to start pspp from
the terminal.
