Never mind. I installed the Win32 extensions to try and fix my problem with Visual Studio and the import started working. Go figure. -----Original Message----- From: zope-bounces@zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org]On Behalf Of Joe Goldthwaite Sent: Monday, March 22, 2004 9:52 AM To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] I really screwed up. Hi all, I made the mistake of trying to upgrade a working system from Zope 2.6.2 to 2.7.0 one week before I demo to the company officers. I also decided that rather than have multiple copies of python all over the place, I'd just have one and I'd point my development tools over to it. I screwed up Visual Python so bad, it no longer runs any python code. I got around that by installing Komodo so I can now at least debug my program. Here's my problem. I'm using external methods extensively. My Zope instance is c:\website. My external modules are in c:\website\extensions. I've got two modules; Externals.py and BarsDB.py. Externals.py imports BarsDB. This was all working on Zope 2.6.2. Now I get an error message "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'BSConnection'" It's strange. It looks like its finding the module but not actually getting any of the names. It's also not generating any errors on the import command. (I was having that problem before with 2.6 but I got it working.) I wrote this little function to test import BarsDB def index_html(REQUEST): return "\n".join(dir(BarsDB)) When I run this from my development environment (Komodo at the moment), everything shows up. I get this list; AcctDesc BSConnection DataLine DataLines ... etc, etc. When I run the same routine from Zope, I get; __builtins__ __doc__ __file__ __name__ That's it. I thought that maybe Zope wasn't finding my BarsDB module and was generating a default empty module instead of generating an error telling me it couldn't find the module. I added a line c:\website\extensions to the Zope sys.path variable and it shows up correctly when I look at the debug information. Anyone have any ideas what could cause this? It seemingly finds my module but doesn't process it.
