NameError: global name is not defined

Question

I'm using Python 2.6.1 on Mac OS X.

I have two simple Python files (below), but when I run

python update_url.py 

I get on the terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):   File "update_urls.py", line 7, in <module>     main()   File "update_urls.py", line 4, in main     db = SqliteDBzz() NameError: global name 'SqliteDBzz' is not defined 

I tried renaming the files and classes differently, which is why there's x and z on the ends. ;)

File sqlitedbx.py

class SqliteDBzz:     connection = ''     curser = ''      def connect(self):         print "foo"      def find_or_create(self, table, column, value):         print "baar" 

File update_url.py

import sqlitedbx  def main():     db = SqliteDBzz()     db.connect  if __name__ == "__main__":     main() 

Answer 1

You need to do:

import sqlitedbx  def main():     db = sqlitedbx.SqliteDBzz()     db.connect()  if __name__ == "__main__":     main() 

Answer 2

try

from sqlitedbx import SqliteDBzz
