[SOLVED] error when execute a python script in home partition

LeandroTiger · 2010-05-14 22:57:29

Friends,

After of install the Arch in my notebook (note: "/" and "/home" in separated partition) if I open a terminal/shell and try execute a python program/script in the /home partition I receive many erros and the program don't run:

 [leandro@professionalit ~]$ alacarte
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 22, in <module>
    from Alacarte.MainWindow import MainWindow
ImportError: No module named Alacarte.MainWindow
[leandro@professionalit ~]$ 
[leandro@professionalit ~]$ dropbox start
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/dropbox", line 26, in <module>
    import optparse
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/optparse.py", line 75, in <module>
    import sys, os
  File "os.py", line 2, in <module>
    import socket
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py", line 92, in <module>
    __all__.extend(os._get_exports_list(_socket))
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_get_exports_list'

But, if I go to another partition, for example, the folder opt in partition / (/opt) and try execute the program it run OK.

Any idea ?

Best regards,
Leandro.

Try reinstalling gnome-menus package.

LeandroTiger · 2010-05-20 01:05:20

without success.

Try running the program like:

 python /usr/bin/alacarte

LeandroTiger · 2010-05-20 03:08:04

[leandro@professionalit ~]$ cd ~
[leandro@professionalit ~]$ python /usr/bin/alacarte
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 22, in <module>
from Alacarte.MainWindow import MainWindow
ImportError: No module named Alacarte.MainWindow
[leandro@professionalit ~]$
[leandro@professionalit ~]$ cd /usr/
[leandro@professionalit usr]$ python /usr/bin/alacarte
[leandro@professionalit usr]$ python /usr/bin/alacarte &

[leandro@professionalit usr]$

Try reinstalling Python.

This is just intuiton I'm no programmer, but i think the traceback goes down to a python OS call for getting the exports lists, and that's enviroment variables, which could be the problem behind running it from different directories.

Maybe you've been messing around with those?

Cheers.

Open a python interactive shell in your home dir, by just executing python without any arguments. Could you post the output of the following:

import sys
print sys.path
import site
import Alacarte

The first line imports the sys module, which contains much infomation about python. The second outputs the sys.path variable, which is a list of all the folders that python searches when importing a module. The third line imports the site module, which isn't used much, but when you executed alacarte, it failed to import this module, raising an error, which was hidden. You should be able to see the error in the interactive shell. The last line imports the Alacarte core module, and is just a test to see if any third party modules are working.

Friends,

That stupid I'm.
I had a os.py in my home folder and this was the root cause of the problem.

Thank you very much.

best regards,
Leandro.
