Sorry in advance for this newbie question. I've searched the archives and while I have learned a few things and tried a few things, I still have the same problem.
I am attempting to add the external python module "nb_fetch" Doing so returns the error message:
"Module /data/zope/testbed/initialzope/Extensions/nb_fetch.py, line 3, in ?
ImportError: No module named nb_parse"
where nb_parse is imported by nb_fetch. I have tried adding __init__.py into the Extensions directory. I have also made a number of attempts at adding directories to the PYTHONPATH, but no success. I have even put the imported modules (nb_parse, etc) into the lib/python subdirectory of the zope directory. Also, I restart zope every time I make a change. Any ideas?
Zope is unable to add the external method because there is a python error ('No module named nb_parse') which stops zope from loading the external method. Two possible fixes: 1) set your path to include the directory where nb_parse.py lives. eg. import sys sys.path.append('/apps/zope/lib/python/mypythonroutines') Also, make sure the group/ownership of the directory and python routine files allow zope to access them. 2) try 'hardcoding' the nb_parse routine within nb_fetch.py. If this works, then your problem is definitely related to pythonpath not being set up (or zope can't access the directories/files in the path). hth Jonathan
