[Twisted-Python] What is the best way to install Twisted on OS X 10.4?
I'm having a hard time running a TwistedWords example. [OS X 10.4, MacPython 2.4, Python 2.3.5, latest stable build of TwistedSumo] I have installed (correctly I think) zopeinterfaces/core/words/web, but when I invoke: /usr/local/bin/python msn_example.py I get the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "msn_example.py", line 11, in ? from twisted.protocols import msn File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/twisted/protocols/msn.py", line 6, in ? globals()) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/twisted/python/util.py", line 725, in moduleMovedForSplit raise ImportError("You need to have the Twisted %s " ImportError: You need to have the Twisted Words package installed to use twisted.protocols.msn. See http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/words. Your help is greatly appreciated [I'm a noob to Python and Twisted, but I know bit about OS X]. Thanks! Aaron.
Turns out there is a problem with the msn_example.py that is provided under the documentation section of the Words project. The import of msn is: from twisted.protocols import msn but should read: from twisted.words.protocols import msn AR. On 7/13/06, Aaron Rustad <arustad@gmail.com> wrote:

The error you got was to indicate that you actually didn't have words installed so it couldn't find twisted.words.protocols.msn. Did you use the toplevel setup.py file from the Twisted-2.4.0.tar.bz2? -- Christopher Armstrong International Man of Twistery http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/ http://twistedmatrix.com/ http://canonical.com/

While the example should be updated to use the non-deprecated import, there seems to be a bug here. The only difference between these two statements should be that the first emits a warning. They should both work (or not) equally well. -Andrew.

OK, I finally got back on to my MacBook, made the change to msn_example.py, and it works. So, it turns out is wasn't a OS X/python issue at all. thanks everyone! AR. On 7/14/06, Andrew Bennetts <andrew-twisted@puzzling.org> wrote:

OK I shouldn't say that all my problems are solved on my Mac. I am using Cygwin at work and I went through the same process of installing Twisted, and Python (minus the MacPython of course), and I receieved the same errors that I indicated earlier in this thread. However, when I changed the import for msn on msn_example.py, it worked. I'll make the change at home on my MBP and let everyone know if it worked. Thanks! AR.
