When I try to launch playonlinux, nothing happens graphically.

When I try to load it with terminal I get:

Looking for python... 2.7.13 - Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/check_python.py", line 1, in 
    import os, wxversion
ImportError: No module named wxversion
failed tests
Looking for python2.7... 2.7.13 - Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/check_python.py", line 1, in 
    import os, wxversion
ImportError: No module named wxversion
failed tests
Looking for python2.6... 
Looking for python2... 2.7.13 - Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/check_python.py", line 1, in 
    import os, wxversion
ImportError: No module named wxversion
failed tests
Please install python before trying to run this program

When I run:

python --version

It shows I have python 2.7.13

I've also tried using solutions from the following link without any luck.

For anyone else who had this issue, here's your solution..

If you try to run playonlinux and recieve this error:

ImportError: No module named wxversion
failed tests 
Please install python before trying to run this program

Edit this file:

/usr/share/playonlinux/bash/find_python

And change the following from:

            next_python "python"
            next_python "python2.7"
            next_python "python2.6"
            next_python "python2"
            next_python "none"

to:

            next_python "/usr/bin/python" #<<This line was added
            next_python "python"
            next_python "python2.7"
            next_python "python2.6"
            next_python "python2"
            next_python "none"

And that's it!
