I just discovered the .pyc file for the main module is not created. When I delete the old pyc and import the main module from the python shell it works fine. But when I start it with "python main_module.py" the .pyc is not created and it happens as shown above. So what leads to the behavior that the .pyc is not created? br Marco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
