When I start QGis I've got the next error:

"An error occured during execution of following code:
import os

can't import traceback

Python version:
2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 21 2008, 13:11:45) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]

QGIS version:
1.6.0-Capiapo 'Capiapo', exported

Python path:
['C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\gdal-17\\pymod', 'C:\\Python26', 'C:\\Python26\\Lib', 'C:\\Python26\\libs', 'C:\\Python26\\Lib\\site-packages', 'C:\\Python26\\Lib\\site-packages\\dbfpy', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\bin\\python25.zip', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\Python25\\DLLs', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\Python25\\lib', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\Python25\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\Python25\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\OSGeo4W\\apps\\qgis\\bin']"

It seems like conflict between python version 2.6.2 installed on my computer and 2.5.2 included in QGis. When I renamed my directory C:\Python26 to C:\Python26_bak problem was disappeared.

I've removed system environment variable PYTHONPATH and problem is disappeared.

right, you should use OSGeo4W's python.
