No module named '...' python

Question

I have a directory called project set up like this:

Project

--directory:src--  
--directory:testscripts--  
--directory:config_files--  
RunPCS.py

and within src, it is set up as:

src

parse_files.py  
parse_json.py  
process_xml.py  
__init__.py

in RunPCS.py I have from src.parse_files import parse_files and from src.parse_json import parse_json

in parse_json.py I have from process_xml import process_xml (since they are in the same directory)

but i get the error no module named process_xml. does anyone know why this error shows up?

Please be specific about which version of Python -- the relative-import rules vary. See, ie. docs.python.org/2.5/whatsnew/pep-328.html -- introducing explicit relative-import syntax in 2.5 (which you probably should be using here). — Charles Duffy

for the import statement, use

from .src.parse_files import parse_files
from .src.parse_json import parse_json

in your parse_json.py

from .process_xml import process_xml

Is it still in the future as of 3.4? I thought this became part of the language proper with 3.0.

well OP only commented it after I place my answer, so don't need the import absolute_import

thanks for the answers. however when i used "from .src" it gives the error ' ' not loaded, cannot perform relative import. when i make the change "from .process_xml import process_xml" and use src instead of .src it fixes the issue however
