Traceback (most recent call last):   File "E:\Python25\webpy\web\mysite.py", line 1, in <module>

    return "Hello,world!"

app=web.application(urls,globals())

if __name__=="__main__":
  app.run(

Answer 1

You are runing into name collisions. You named your package web, and are trying to import a module web.

I am assuming this is in a package?

\webpy\web\mysite.py

If so when you do import web you are importing your package not the actual web.py. Rename it, or reorder your pythonpath.
