[albatross-users] ImportError: cannot import name RandomModularSessionFileApp

[Axel Kollmorgen]

hi,

when i change the "random" sample from a RandomModularSessionApp to a
RandomModularSessionFileApp, i get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "d:\pub\cgi\alsamp\random\random.py", line 2, in ?
    from albatross import RandomModularSessionFileApp
  File

line 12, in ?
    from albatross.sessionfile import *
  File

    from albatross import RandomModularSessionFileApp
ImportError: cannot import name RandomModularSessionFileApp


apparently a name clash problem - when i change random.py to bla.py, the
problem has gone ("random" is a standard python module, isn't it?). i'm
quite new to python so i don't know if this is a bug or just
unfortunate. in any case, because others may run into the same problem,
i'd suggest to either fix it, rename the sample dir or at least document
it somehow.

besides this, albatross looks like the thing i've been looking for
(quite some time). thanks!
