Why does running "from storm.locals import *" (as per the tutorial) on Centos 5 give "ImportError - No module names locals"?

This question was expired because it remained in the 'Open' state without activity for the last 15 days.

In the title of the bug, you've written "store.locals" and in the body you've written "storm.locals". Are you sure you typed the correct package name?

If that is the problem, I wonder if it is a problem with the packaging? If you do "rpm -ql python-storm", does it list storm/locals.py along with the other Storm modules?

Oops - sorry, a stupid typo in the title on my part.

RPM shows:

$ rpm -ql python-storm | grep locals
/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/storm/locals.py
/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/storm/locals.pyc
/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/storm/locals.pyo

Which looks to be correct I think.

Thanks

If I do:

$ python -v
>>> from storm.locals import *
# storm.pyc matches storm.py
import storm # precompiled from storm.pyc
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "storm.py", line 5, in ?
    from storm.locals import *
ImportError: No module named locals

I also tried deleting locals.pyo and locals.pyc, but that didn't help.

It sounds like you've got some other module shadowing the Storm package. Importing just "storm" should read "storm/__init__.py" rather than "storm.py" as it is a package.

Can you rename the other module to something else?
