import logging fails on MacPython 2.4.3

[Tod Olson]

Anyone have advice for importing the logging module using MacPython 2.4.3?

MacPython installs the logging module in:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/logging/

There's an __init__.py there and everything, but this directory is not
in sys.path. I add it to sys.path as follows:

>>> sys.path.append(os.path.join(sys.prefix, 'lib', 'logging'))
>>> print sys.path[-1]

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/logging

But even so, the logging module is not found:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#7>", line 1, in -toplevel-
import logging
ImportError: No module named logging

Now, I've been away from Python for some years, so I'm pretty rusty.
Maybe there's something obvious I'm missing. Any advice on how to
proceed would be welcome.

Which is wrong - you'd have to add the path without the logging part!

That's good to hear, as it agrees with the other Python installations
I've examined. That locations makes much more sense than where it landed
on my machine.

Great, thanks!
