Spyder editor keeps crashing

[xiaoyuejin]

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Updated to spyder 3.2.4
2. In the editor, type in, for example, "numpy.", OR
3. type in "(" and autocomplete to "()"

Note: I have
parso 0.1.0
jedi 0.10.2
But the problem remains.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Popup window: [Spyder has encountered a problem]

Please provide any additional information below

The error is not complete. Please copy it from our error dialog and paste it in full here.

It still looks very much like the parso error; e.g. #5673 , the part of the traceback we can see fits the signature exactly. Most importantly, what does the last line of the error message say?

Also, given it looks like you are using pip, it could be some arcane issue with that. Due to the frequency of such problems, we can only recommend that you use the Anaconda distribution instead, though you're welcome to try to get it on your own. Also, you can try updating both parso and jedi to their latest versions, which should now work well together.

Finally, if we don't hear from you in one week (7 days), we'll have to close this error report. Best of luck!

I am using pythonxy 2.7.10, i.e. Python 2.7.10.

I had upgraded both parso and jedi to the latest version, then had this problem. I was digging in github and found that sometimes the latest versions of parso and jedi cause problems. That's why I downgraded both them. But the problem remains.

And, my spyder does NOT show error message in full. The pop-up window only says "Spyder has encountered a problem", then "submit to GITHUB" or "OK". Where can I load/find the full error message?

Please press the button that says Show details (or something like that) and copy the text that appears below.

I had upgraded both parso and jedi to the latest version, then had this problem.

What versions, precisely?

Where can I load/find the full error message?

You can also try the Spyder internal console. View > Panes > Internal Console.

Not sure why the full error message isn't getting copied...I've seen this very frequently in people's posts, but I've never understood why since I'm not sure at what step it happens, and it's never happened to me.

[xiaoyuejin]

I just uploaded a screenshot of the popup window. There is no place where I can click for "more details"...

But I found the internal console now. Here is the full error:

I will try to upgrade setuptools now and will report back. Thanks guys!

[xiaoyuejin]

No, I can't see the full thing when I submit to github... There is only a popup window but no text panel in it.

[ccordoba12]

Please try to use a more recent version of, well, everything, Python, setuptools, PyQt. etc.

Closing because this is why we don't give support to installations other than Anaconda.

Yup...
