Hudson XML error - no module named dom.minidom

Question

I am trying to send a simple XML file in the format http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/Monitoring+external+jobs . I was able to send it easily and got the desired result! Then I tried to create this XML file using a python script and it gave me the exact file that I wanted without any problems. But when I tried to run it and send it to Hudson, I got an error - "There is no module named dom.minidom". I checked again by running in Python IDLE and it works fine, but when I tried to send it again, I got the same error .. plz help ..

Answer 1

See ImportError: there is no module named dom.minidom .

A python script named as xml.py causes the intepreter to get confused .... Renaming the file as my_domxml.py and removing xml.pyc did the trick.
