Folks,

I've set up Python to work within ASP scripts on an IIS server we have
at my office. The standard tests work fine, but when I put code in the
ASP file that imports Python modules I get an error. Not all modules,
of course; re and sys work fine, but urllib and csv do not, for
example. When I try urllib I get the following error:

Python ActiveX Scripting Engine error '80020009'

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<Script Block >", line 3, in
? import urllib ImportError: No module named urllib

/derekjunk/python.asp, line 1

This mystifies me, because all I did was replace "sys" with "urllib"
in the import statement,  and urllib.py does reside within the /Lib/
subdirectory in my Python installation. I'm on Win2k with IIS, using
ActiveState's 2.4 version. The IIS is configured to allow full access
for users, so I don't believe it is a question of rights.

Any suggestions are most welcomed.

Derek

It looks like there's an Active Python list that's maintained by Active
State.

http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Python+ActiveX+Scripting+Engine+error%22+ImportError+site%3Aaspn.activestate.com

If nobody on the list here jumps up with a solution you might want to
give it a shake.

Back when I was cursed^H^H^H^H^H^H used IIS (about 150 years ago in Web
time) I don't remember anything like this.

Have you written a script to roll over each of the modules and note
which ones miss? 

And if you

    from urllib import *

is that better?

Cheers,
Jules
