I have a copy of the music21 python library in the modules folder of my application.
>From the pythonanywhere bash prompt I can import it without problems: cd ~/web2py/applications/mints/modules python >>> from music21 import chord >>> chord <module 'music21.chord' from 'music21/chord.pyc'> When I tried to import it from my application, at first I got the following stack trace: *controller:* def index(): from music21 import chord return dict(message=T('Hello World')) *Error: * <type 'exceptions.ImportError'> cannot import name correlate Versie web2py™ Version 2.9.5-stable+timestamp.2014.03.16.02.35.39 Python Python 2.7.5+: /usr/local/bin/uwsgi (prefix: /usr) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/xxx/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 220, in restricted exec ccode in environment File "/home/xxx/web2py/applications/mints/controllers/default.py", line 79, in <module> File "/home/xxx/web2py/gluon/globals.py", line 385, in <lambda> self._caller = lambda f: f() File "/home/xxx/web2py/applications/mints/controllers/default.py", line 21, in index from music21 import chord File "/home/xxx/web2py/gluon/custom_import.py", line 92, in custom_importer return base_importer(pname, globals, locals, fromlist, level) File "applications/mints/modules/music21/__init__.py", line 166, in <module> from music21 import * # @UnresolvedImport File "/home/xxx/web2py/gluon/custom_import.py", line 92, in custom_importer return base_importer(pname, globals, locals, fromlist, level) File "applications/mints/modules/music21/analysis/__init__.py", line 5, in <module> from music21.analysis import correlate ImportError: cannot import name correlate After *reloading* the web application, the trace back changed to: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24.

If you have an idea about what causes the problem, can it be worked around somehow? thanks for your insights!
