the typical problem is a mysql.py in the same dir you are running the command (. is always inserted at the beginning of sys.path). Else, can you import only 'mysql'? if yes, where it's pointing to? $ python -c 'import mysql as a ; print a.__file__' /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/mysql/__init__.pyc Regards, -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi _______________________________________________ Python-modules-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team
