ImportError raised in script, not interactive session.
I'm writing a set of modules to monitor remote system services, and I'm
having a problem running my test scripts. When I pass the scripts into
python, like so:
--
$ PYTHONPATH="${TARGET_DIR}" python test.py
--
I get an ImportError:
--
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test.py", line 6, in ?
from overwatch.view import console
ImportError: No module named view
--
However, when I load up an interactive Python session:
--
$ PYTHONPATH="${TARGET_DIR}" python
--
I can do the exact same import statement with no problem:
--
Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jul 28 2006, 09:40:08)
[GCC 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from overwatch.view import console
>>> dir(console)
['Daemon', 'UI', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__',
'datetime']
--
My package directory is arranged under ${TARGET_DIR} as prescribed in
the Python docs:
overwatch/
..__init__.py
..[etc.]
..view/
__init__.py
console.py
[etc.]
All modules involved are my own, and I'm setting PYTHONPATH so I can
test with the package installed in my home directory (which I use
distutils to do). I've checked online, and double-checked the Python
docs to make sure my modules are arranged properly, and it all looks
alright. Any ideas?

${TARGET_DIR} = /home/blinks/projects/overwatch/target/lib/python
I've started the interactive session from several different
directories, and never had a problem.
My make output (note the second item in sys.path):
--
cd /home/blinks/projects/overwatch/target/bin &&
PYTHONPATH="/home/blinks/projects/overwatch/target/lib/python"
./test.py

Oh, and:
--
$ ls /home/blinks/projects/overwatch/target/lib/python/
overwatch

Thanks for the help! If you want a copy of the project to reproduce,
it's on Subversion at http://tools.assembla.com/svn/Overwatch/trunk
(should be readable).
