Verify, that the code raising the "ImportError" looks like

	from Shared.mx.ODBC... (or "import Shared.mx.ODBC")
and not
        from mx.ODBC (or "import mx.ODBC")
i.e. that the "Shared" is present.

It "Shared" would not be present, then the "mx" package would need
to live in "lib/python" and not "lib/python/Shared"...

If the "Shared" is present, then maybe, an "__init__.py" is missing
in either "mx" or "ODBC". These files tell Python that a folder
is to be considered as a Python package. They are often empty
and sometimes archiving programs ignore empty files....
