Running ghpythonremote in windows 7, GH to Python, the console window that opens remains empty. The remote traceback is lost on errors, it is not redirected to GH.

@pilcru I am facing the same issue.
The console is empty, and I am getting this error

Fixed the error by installing IronPython 2.7.5, but the window is still empty.

These are two separate issues, the Runtime error (TypeErrorException): sequence item 1: expected bytes or byte array, str found has solutions on the food4rhino forum, and now in #16.

Closing as Rhino 7 does not provide support on Windows 7.
