Question

Python 2.4.3, when I run python via the command line and import random, it works just fine. When I run a django based website “python manage.py runserver”, the server starts up fine, but as soon as I load a page, it tosses me this error.

I really have no clue how to fix this. I’ve done some searching, random is core to python, the import I tried from the python interpreter seems to indicated to me that it’s working. However, it’s not working when running the website.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Answer 1

If the error is exactly “No module named Random”, then you’ve written import Random when you really meant import random. There is no module in the Python standard library called Random. Module names are case sensitive in Python. If that doesn’t solve your problem, please show us some code from whatever module imports random
