Uwsgi-error: ImportError: No module named 'globals'

[Johann Spies]

I have (as far as I can see) identical configurations on two debian computers.  On one nginx with uwsgi works.  On the other, however, I get the following uwsgi-error in the logs:

Wed Sep 11 22:36:40 2013 - *** Operational MODE: preforking ***
Wed Sep 11 22:36:40 2013 - added /home/www-data/web2py/ to pythonpath.
Wed Sep 11 22:36:40 2013 - mounting wsgihandler:application on /
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/www-data/web2py/wsgihandler.py", line 33, in <module>
    import gluon.main
  File "/home/www-data/web2py/gluon/__init__.py", line 15, in <module>
    from globals import current
ImportError: No module named 'globals'
Wed Sep 11 22:36:40 2013 - unable to load app 0 (mountpoint='/') (callable not found or import error)

The pythonpath is correct and the web2py-installation is up to date and there is a globals.py in web2py/gluon

What is going on?

Regards

Johann

In both cases print the sys.path.

[Niphlod]

usually this is due to gluon not being in sys.path directly.

BTW: we  should adopt something standard in imports too throughout all the code. Either we do 

from gluon.module import something

or

from module import something

I vote for the 1st option.

[Massimo Di Pierro]

I agree. Less ambiguitiy

so let's go for all imports done prefixing them with gluon or the other one ? I'll put it in the roadmap ^_^

This does not really show me the root of the problem.

Hi,

I had a problem along the same lines, it turned out that uwsgi was compile with python 3.3 support.

This was Ubuntu 13.04 and I installed it via apt-get , check the entire uwsgi logs for the python version.

regards,

Nils

@niphlod I'd prefer having everything under the gluon namespace

import gluon.<module>

[Massimo Di Pierro]

This is now done in 2.6.1

Thanks for this.  I only came back to this problem today and indeed: the problem installation's uwsgi was compiled for python3.3!
