    text
    copied!<p>So I've been working the last exercise of <a href="http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ex52.html" rel="nofollow">Learn Python the Hard Way</a> and it states that before I run the program Ive been working on, you have to set the Pythonpath environment variable like this:</p> <pre><code>export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:. </code></pre> <p>I've done this, and after it wasn't working (Im assuming thats why when I try to run my program, I get an ImportError), I did some research on pythonpath. It's essentially says that Pythonpath is to find where to look for modules to import. So I set Pythonpath to the actual location of the module I'm trying to import and still to no avail.</p> <p>Here's my directory:</p> <ul> <li>User/<em>myname</em>/python_stuff/projects/GothonWeb <ul> <li>bin/ <ul> <li>init.py (with the double underscores, of course.)</li> <li>app.py</li> </ul></li> <li>gothonweb/ <ul> <li>init.py (with the double underscores, of course.)</li> <li>maps.py</li> </ul></li> <li>templates (web.py) <ul> <li>game.html</li> <li>index.html</li> <li>layout.html</li> </ul></li> <li>so forth and so on.</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>Im trying to run the app.py, which tries to import the main.py module:</p> <pre><code>from gothonweb import maps </code></pre> <p>But I still get this error:</p> <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last): File "python_stuff/projects/GothonWeb/bin/app.py", line 2, in &lt;module&gt; from gothonweb import maps ImportError: No module named gothonweb </code></pre> <p>Anyone know whats up? Oh, some other details. Running on Python 2.7 on Mac Os X Lion, if that helps any.</p>
