It runs the program as root and root's home directory is /. For this kind of thing you need to either pass in the data directory as an argument or wrap the python script in a shell script that sets an environment variable to where your data is and then runs the pyhon script. Within the script use getenv to find the path. Or just hard code the path... Alan G ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Well, he can do the following stuff: -) wrap it in a shell script that changes to current directory to the expected one. -) do that inside the python script. -) make the file path absolute somehow: *) code it as a constant int the script. *) make it an argument (see sys.argv or module optparse) *) make it an argument via the environment (os.environ, not getenv) Andreas > > Or just hard code the path... > > Alan G > > ___ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] Unable to import xxx.pyd
Well, xxx.pyd -> dynamic binary python module on Windows. security value "755" suggests that you are trying to install it on a Linux/Unix host. Sorry, but dynamic binary modules on Linux end in ".so" (every Unix treats that a little bit different, HPUX e.g. uses .sl, etc.) And no, you cannot just copy a .pyd file from a Windows distribution to a Linux host and expect it to work. (Actually .pyd files are sometimes incompatible between differently compiled Python versions on Win32) Andreas Am Donnerstag, den 25.05.2006, 14:20 -0500 schrieb URBAN LANDREMAN: > I'm debugging a program where I'm trying to import a file named xxx.pyd. > > I test the logic interactively with IDLE and see that it makes a difference > on which directory the file xxx.pyd is located.

Re: [Tutor] How to import a module which was not in the current working directory?
Hi Linda, Let say you have a tool named convert.py and other module (processing.py) in modules folder. In modules folder create an empty file named __init__.py In convert.py do: from modules import processing.py It would work. da linda.s wrote: > Hi, > How to import a module which was not in the current working directory? > Thanks, > Linda > > > ___ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor > ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
