Here is the error message and config's I am using during testing.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FYI: The python source is the selenium's example from thier doc.
In first two cases appears source code is found, but the selenium
isn't.
Selenium is installed and from command line any account can run the
program,
only except is under the Jenkins account. I can't re-install selenium
under
Jenkins because it is passworded.
Errors below were from build setup
Advanced Project Options
Use custom workspace - /home/steveb/QA-project/Python
This was done so Jenkins could find the source since not using any at
this time.
Build Virtual Builder
Python version - System
Nature - Shell
Command - /usr/bin/python2.7 selePy2.py

Switched to XShell and same errors as above.
Switched to Python and removed path to python, just the source
filename.
In this case it can't seem to find the source file.

========================================================================
Switched the build step to Python Builder
I put in full path to python and source file.
Same error of can't find selenium libs.
Only other error that sometimes pops up in trying all the various
Python
build variation is: "invalid interpter" and that appear to be a path
issue.
