Import Error with custom Python module

[Jason Edelman]

Hi All,

I keep getting an "ImportError: No module named" when I try and run a playbook using a custom python module (that is trying to import a 3rd party python package).

Few things:

- importing the 3rd party package works from the python shell from all over my machine. 

- PYTHONPATH seems to be correct, hence, importing the package works 

- using the hacking test script also does NOT reproduce the error.  So this works fine.

- I've tried ansible_python_interpreter=/usr/bin/python2.7 

- Seem to have removed py3 just by using rm

- using 'connection: local' so the target host is "my host" also executing the playbook

I'm a new guy, so help me not leave any stone unturned :).  Don't assume anything please!

Thanks in advance.

-Jason

What is the path to your module? Also, have you checked out http://docs.ansible.com/developing_modules.html to see that your following our instructions for custom module development?

Okay, so my error was very very stupid.  Everything was correct, but I was executing the playbook as such ‘sudo ansible-playbook xxxxx’ and believe since was sudo’ing, I was losing the environment variables that were previously set.  Either way, after running it without sudo, it worked just fine.
