Question

I have a directory structure like

akom
   DB
     DBinit.py 
     __init__.py
     server.py 

   Configuration(dir)
   urls.py
   settings.py 
   manage.py 
   ini.py
   __init__.py

I have set the PYTHONPATH in my .bashrc as export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/home/dir1/dir2/

Inside dir2 akom reside.

I am importing the ini.py on server.py like import ini but i am getting the error that

ImportError: No module named ini

Please tell me where i am going wrong .?

Answer 1

Since akom is a package itself, you need to reference modules inside that package by the package name first – e.g. by using import akom.ini instead of import ini.

Update: Reading above, it’s somewhat unclear if ini.py is in the Configuration directory – if it is you will need to do import akom.Configuration.ini.
