[Freeswitch-users] Error: eval_some_python() Error importing module

[Brian Deacon]

Greetings,

Couldn't find anything on the wiki or in the mail archives.  (Let me
know where you think a good home for this info might be on the wiki and
I'd be more than happy to write something up in there.)

I'm guessing I haven't done everything necessary to enable python on my
machine.  I have python-2.4.3 and python-devel 2.4.3-21 installed on the
FS machine.

Per the instructions, I uncommented the mod_python line from
modules.conf and rebuilt my freeswitch instance.  Vanilla functionality
is working.  I set PYTHONPATH to /usr/local/freeswitch/python before
restarting the mod_python-enabled freeswitch (via modules.conf.xml)

# echo $PYTHONPATH
/usr/local/freeswitch/python

# grep mod_python \
> /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/modules.conf.xml 
    <load module="mod_python"/>  

# ls $PYTHONPATH
bar.py  bar.pyc

# cat $PYTHONPATH/bar.py
stream.write("baz")


The relevant entry in conf/dialplan/default.xml:
    <extension name="Test_Simple_Python">
        <condition field="destination_number" expression="^1235$">
            <action application="set" data="foo=${python(bar)}" />
            <action application="bridge"
data="{group_confirm_file=vm-hello,group_confirm_key=4,call_timeout=60}
sofia/internal/1000,sofia/internal/1002" />
        </condition>
    </extension>

(The bridge action is only there because it seemed unhappy unless it was
going to actually try to do something.)

The following output shows up in fs_cli when I dial 1235:

So I'm guessing something dumb on my part.  But there are so many dumb things I'm capable of doing...  :)

TIA,
Brian
