How can i fix this? for wintypes, i put the ctypes folder under site- packages, it doesn't make any change. Same thing after I put wintypes directly under site-packages. I also restart the web2py. Is there any generic way to import packages? like pyserial, it has a package name - pyserial-2.5-rc2, should i copy the whole folder to site-packages and then add path to pyserial2.5-rc2?
