Python ImportError: No module named 'xxxx'

Question

Getting error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Python33/Lib/123.py", line 5, in <module> from wordpress_xmlrpc import Client, WordPressPost File "C:/Python33/lib/site-packages/wordpress_xmlrpc/__init__.py", line 6, in <module> import base ImportError: No module named 'base'

base.py is located in:

C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\wordpress_xmlrpc\

__init__.py looks like:

from base import * from wordpress import * import methods

All other imports I use work fine.

Path variables look like:

C:\Python33;C:\Python33\Scripts;C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages;C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\wordpress_xmlrpc;C:\Python33\Lib;

Does anyone know why I get this error?

Your own application wouldn't happen to change the path variables run-time, would it? — Hubro

You need to use either explicit relative or absolute imports when you use python3, so

from wordpress_xmlrpc import base # or from . import base

In python3 import base would only import an absolute package base, as implicit relative imports are no longer supported.

Relative imports are used with a "." when using python 3.

Please see the already ansewred question

Relative imports are permitted in py3, just not implicit relative imports. You need the explicit form (from . import ...)
