cannot import MontagePy.main

[marijkehaverkorn]

Hello,

I installed MontagePy using pip install on python 3.8. "Import MontagePy" works without problems, but I cannot use mProjectQL:

from MontagePy.main import mProjectQL

ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages/MontagePy/main.cpython-312-darwin.so, 0x0002): tried: '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages/MontagePy/main.cpython-312-darwin.so' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'arm64', need 'x86_64h' or 'x86_64')), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages/MontagePy/main.cpython-312-darwin.so' (no such file), '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages/MontagePy/main.cpython-312-darwin.so' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'arm64', need 'x86_64h' or 'x86_64'))

Can you help me how to solve this?

Thank you,
Marijke

it looks like your native system use Python3.12, and you are using Apple Silicon Mac. MontagePy doesn't work with Python 3.8 for Apple Silicon machine. Python 3.8 + MontagePy can only work on X86/AMD64 cpu machine.
