Question

I have installed ipython on my Ubuntu and then I have installed mechanize on the same.
I can able to do

import mechanize

from command prompt. But when I say import mechanize from ipython, it says as no module named mechanize.

Answer 1

I would do this…

In the console:

>>> import mechanize
>>> mechanize.__file__
Some/path/to/mechanize

Then in IPython,

[1] import sys
[2] print sys.path

See if the /Some/path/to/mechanize is in your sys.path.
