L.S.

On both my pythonanywhere and my local web2py instance I seem to be unable to import the dropbox module from gluon.

When incorporating this code in db.py

from gluon.contrib.login_methods.dropbox_account import use_dropbox

use_janrain(auth,filename='private/dropbox.key')

mydropbox = auth.settings.login_form

my application issues me a ticket stating:

<type 'exceptions.ImportError'> No module named gluon.contrib.login_methods.dropbox_account

and trying a plain import in my local python console results in :

ImportError: No module named dropbox

The dropbox_account files (py and pyc) are present in the appropriate folder, so what am I doing wrong?

That indeed solved the problem.

Thank you for the very quick response!

a tip would be to include that reference into the documentation where you present the Dropbox API

http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/14#Dropbox-API

Found it with a google search, but still :)
