Hi, Well I just wrote the response below which someone else might find useful in the future but in this case I've a hunch the problem is that you have chosen the name ``new`` as the test. I expect Python is importing the name ``new`` rather than your new project. Try creating a test project that doesn't conflict with an existing Python module?
HTH, James Oh I see, well as I mentioned I think the error is because paste can't find the paste.app_factory main entry point for the generated package so you'll have to experiment a bit. Have a really careful look at /home/chris/pylons/new/setup.py and check the entry points are there and that you haven't specified the wrong package name by mistake in the entry_points line. If it all looks right try running python setup.py egg_info to regenerate the egg information. Can you post the actual generated setup.py which is going wrong rather than the template one as it is tricky to debug otherwise. Also make sure that the make_app() function still exists in the correct place (ie that you haven't altered package/__init__.py by mistake?). emery wrote: > Thanks James, but I think I am still missing something.
