After running an VTune™ Amplifier XE 2011 data analysis from within Microsoft* Visual Studio*, you may see a dialog box with the caption "Attach debugger?" and the message

<type 'exceptions.ImportError'> No module name pythonhelpers1 <string>(1): <module>

AXE+python+error.PNG

Pressing Yes or No usually results in the display of the collected data.  Sometimes the dialog is NOT displayed and in those cases the data may not be displayed.

 
Environment : 
Microsoft* Windows*

Root Cause : 
There is a compatibility issue with the current releases of Intel® Parallel Amplifier 2011 and VTune Amplifier XE.  Both tools use different versions of a DLL and the version used by Parallel Amplifier is not compatible with VTune Amplifier XE.  If that version is loaded by Visual Studio, VTune Amplifier XE cannot load the newer version of the DLL, which is required for correct operation.

Resolution : 
Until a fix is available, closing down Visual Studio*, restarting it, and using VTune Amplifier XE prior to any other activity should resolve the issue for the duration of the Visual Studio invocation.  The problem arises when Parallel Amplifier functionality is used prior to VTune Amplifier XE in the same Visual Studio session.

Environment : Microsoft* Visual Studio* versions that have installed Parallel Studio tools.


Root Cause : Tool bar is not visible, either because it is not enabled or it is obscured by other tool bars that are enabled.


Resolution : Here are some suggestions:
* Select the View->Toolbars menu to confirm that the menu option "Intel Parallel Amplifier" is available and checked. If not checked, you can select the toolbar option and the toolbar should become visible.
* It is possible that the Parallel Amplifier toolbar is installed and available but all the Visual Studio* toolbars are positioned such that the Parallel Amplifier toolbar is not prominently visible. In this case, consider dragging around some toolbars and reposition them to ensure that the Amplifier tool bar is more prominently visible. If there are toolbars that you do not use, you can deselect such toolbars to better use the toolbar space.
* Some non-English OSes may have issues. Please see this KB article for more information: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/installation-of-intel-parallel-amplifier-on-non-english-operating-systems/
* If none of the suggestions above work, please post your question on the Parallel Studio forum.
