没有名为error python的模块，是否在sys.path上？

Question

Okay, I am getting an error that is like no module named credentials

I have a credentials.py file in that directory. I am sort of new to python and this is driving me nuts.

How can I debug this, or can anyone tell right off the bat what may be the problem?

Answer 1

When you do python keep_backend/manage.py runserver , then your PYTHONPATH will not include the current directory. Instead, in will include the keep_backend directory.

Since credentials.py is in the current directory, it is not importable.

A workaround is manually adding the right folder to your PYTHONPATH

PYTHONPATH=`pwd`:$PYTHONPATH python keep_backend/manage.py runserver

But you should most likely rethink your directory structure here.
