  Thanks a lot Gabriel, yes this works fine when I am running it
outside of zip.
when I say  python __main__.py --uploadfile  it works fine
I dont know what happens when I zip it.

And Steve: all of the packages have __init__.py inside them, I have
posted the tree structure of application if it helps.
