Problem calling python modules from python apache handler

[mannewalis]

Hi,

I have the following setup...

Apache 2.2.3, Python 2.5 and mod_python 3.3.1

I have configured apache to call a python script when fetching .py
resources...so far so good... I did the hello world script in the
mod_python docs and it works great.

Now when I want to add some meat and potatoes and call some other
python code from the script things get pear shaped.. I try to import
the module I want, but it never can find it... I always get the
error...

ImportError: No module named ???

no matter what I do. I have moved my python modules around, to no
avail. I've even put them in the same directory as the handler script
and even that doesn't work.

I am fairly new to python, so I expect there is some search-path-
fu(tm) that I am presently unaware of. Can anybody explain how to get
this working?

Thanks
Justin



For example...

I have the following folders...

\python25\lib\test\

with the script mytest.py

In my apache hander I try to import this script

from test import mytest

and get the error..
