ImportError?: No module named dabo
OK you have downloaded Dabo. Now you try to run it and you immediately get an error: “ImportError?: No module named dabo”
Python is reporting that the module 'dabo' is not in it's search path “PYTHONPATH”. The easiest way to solve this is to add a file (dabo.pth) to your 'site-packages' directory that directs (tells) python where to find the “dabo” module. Why a “pth” file? Because it is easier that screwing around with your environment variables like the “PYTHONPATH” which can be a pain on Mac OS and Windows.
To use a “pth” you have to create a file “dabo.pth” and save the file into the “site-packages” directory/folder. The “site-packages” directory is located below “the python root directory/lib”.
The “dabo.pth” file contain a single statement (one line) which tells python where to find Dabo.
For windows: “C:\location of dabo” or “C:\myProject\dabo\” For Linux: “/home/userName/dabo/”
