mac ports python32 tkinter module not loading

  • 772

not able to launch my python script. It is complaining that Tkinter module is nowhere to be found....

Uhm, what am I missing? 

from Tkinter import *
ImportError: No module named Tkinter


$ sudo port installed | grep py
 py32-tkinter @3.2.2_0 (active)
 python32 @3.2.2_0 (active)

Thanks!

    Make sure you are running the macports version of python and not the OSX version. 

    which python

    Should return

    /opt/local/bin/python

    If its returning /usr/bin/python instead then your path needs to be adjusted. 

    export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH

    You can run the above line from your command prompt to test if it works. If it does work you will need to put it in your ~/.profile for it to persist across sessions.
