[Tutor] ImportError: cannot import name log

[vishwajeet singh]

Hi,

Below is the content of __init__.py

import sys
from django.core.signals import got_request_exception
from . import log
logger = log._get_logger()

def got_request_exception_callback(sender, **kwargs):
"""Logging all unhandled exceptions."""
type, exception, traceback = sys.exc_info()
logger.error(unicode(exception))
got_request_exception.connect(got_request_exception_callback)

My question here is that what does *from . import log* doing I can see a
module name log in the same folder.

This import statement is throwing an error ImportError: cannot import name
log.

Thanks for all your help

The '.' notation is fairly new and also uncommon AFAIK

This import statement is throwing an error ImportError: cannot import
name log.

The reasons it can't import using this 'from . import' notation would be the
same as for any other import errors. Check your PYTHONPATH and paste the entire
traceback if it still does not work.
