Question

im facing typical NameError (without any additional message) on command “cd” while importing other file.

E.g. executor.py

import sys
from java.lang import System
import ds_update

x = ds_update.DataSource()
x.someAction()

And ds_update.py
import sys
from java.lang import System

import sys
from java.lang import System

class DataSource:

  def someAction(self): 
    try:
      cd('/')
    ...

Got error: (if those commands are in one file, there is no problem with cd)

Problem invoking WLST - Traceback (innermost last):
  File "...\executor.py", line 17, in ?
  File "...\ds_update.py", line 11, in updateDS
NameError: cd

Thank you:-)

You’re trying to use a function that isn’t defined, namely cd(), according to your comments, it is something provided by WLST. I never used Jython nor WLST, but you have to find a way to import these methods in your script to be able to use them.
