JM,

Thanks for the response, you're correct '' is pre-pended to the path
in interactive mode. I've tried adding . to my PYTHONPATH and it
doesn't solve the problem.

When imported from interactive python the paste.deploy module is located at:

import paste.deploy
paste.deploy.__path__
['/home/brian/webapps/test_dyn/lib/python2.7/paste/deploy']

My path for both interactive and non-interactive contains:

/home/brian/webapps/test_dyn/lib/python2.7

From the interactive interpreter I can import paste if my working
directory is inside of the.

/home/brian/webapps/test_dyn

Moving to a working directory above "test_dyn" point causes the import
to fail in the interactive interpreter as well.

I am able to import packages located the lib/python2.7/site-packages
directory of my virtualenv instance, but not the lib/python2.7
directory.

Thanks again,
Brian

[Snip]
but, using the same same python, I'm able to import the module from
the interactive interpreter. The PATH and PYTHONPATH environment
variables are identical in both contexts.

Are you sure ? with python 2.5, in interactive mode '' is happened to
sys.path and is absent from it when a python file is executed.

python -c "import sys; print '' in sys.path"
True
python test.py
False

Under what situations would a module be available to through the
interactive interpreter but not the non-interactive?

I greatly appreciate any thoughts,
Brian

As a more general notice, if you want to be able to import paste from
everywhere, it must be properly installed as a python module.

Cheers,

JM
Difficult to say without your PYTHONPATH value.

Assuming your PYTHONPATH is

/home/brian/webapps/test_dyn/lib/python2.7/site-packages

1/ paste is stable, copy the paste directory into /home/brian/webapps/test_dyn/lib/python2.7/site-packages 2/ paste is not stable, i.e. you're changing it from time to time, make a symbolic link to your dev paste directory within /home/brian/webapps/test_dyn/lib/python2.7/site-packages

you should now be able to import paste from anywhere.

JM
