Since you import cgi, I assume you are writing a cgi script.

Which web server do you use?

Try running the script from the shell.

Have a look at the error log of you web server.

You can run the script in a wrapper like this. This
result in error pages which are displayed in the browser:

#!/usr/bin/python
import cgi


def main():
    print "Content-Type: text/html\n"
    try:
                import quizpy
                print quizpy.main()
    except:
                print "<html><body><pre>"
                cgi.print_exception()
                print "</pre></body></html>"
            
main()

BTW: The subject of your post is not very good, since it is a cgi problem.
