Maybe something like this:

moduleA.py:
-----------
def someFunc():
    print "hello"
    raise ValueError

someFunc()
----------

import subprocess

print "Main executing"
try:
    p  = subprocess.Popen(["python", "6test.py"],
            stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
            stderr=subprocess.PIPE)

    result = p.wait()
    if result == 0:
        print "output:", p.stdout.read()
    else:
        print "output before error:", p.stdout.read()
        print "error:", p.stderr.read()

except (OSError, TypeError, ValueError), e:
    print "subprocess was never started"
    print e
