There is no __init__.py file in your /modules folder, nor in the app folder (should also be one in the /applications folder).

I get the same error (and have had this problem numerous times before). This is frustrating.

The contents of the modules directory:
$ ls
__init__.py __init__.pyc pretty.py pretty.pyc

I have tried:

from pretty import *

and

from applications.wos_2016_1.modules.pretty import *

with no success.

This is on localhost and I have restarted web2py with every change.

Regards
Johann
