I recently wanted to start programming with python and therefore set up my eclipse with PyDev. Now, i followed the step-by-step Tutorial at
l but when i create my first PyDev Project i get the error:
"The interpreter configured does not exist in the filesystem: python"
I am using Eclipse 4.3, Python 2.7 and I installed PyDev via the eclipse 'Install new software' option. I did not configure any Jython/IronPython interpreters and the following is how my python-interpreter preferences look like:
Any help would be appreciated :)

This is an introduced bug as part of the latest changes done in PyDev interpreter (it should work even without a full path -- please create a new issue at the PyDev tracker: with the error you get when running).
I got the same issue after installing python. Here are my findings and solution for it:
Findings: This issue occurs when pydev was not able to locate python interpreter.
Solution: Configure the python path. Steps:
Launch Eclipse -> Click on Windows -> Preferences -> PyDev -> Interpreters -> Python Interpreter -> Then browse and change the python interpreter path. Check below screen for this.
NOTE: While installing python, we get a window where we get to see the path where python would be installed. So we can copy the same path here.
