Django nonrel development server doesn't import amazon.api

I have a weird problem with Django nonrel's development server:

I have installed Amazon Simple Product API , and it works fine in the shell, I can import it there, and everything else seems to work fine. But when I try to import it into my website I get this:

I'm using the same python version to run both the server and the shell, and I have no idea what's wrong.

Solution

  • dev_appserever modifies the environment so you don't include libraries in a way that won't be available when you deploy your project onto App Engine.

    You'll have to put the library in your actual project folder, or at least softlink to it from within your project folder.
