import runner ImportError: No module named runner

Question

[csjlee08]

Hello I'm trying to run Fast-GBS which runs Platypus. I keep getting the following:

Search the variants with platypus Traceback (most recent call last): File "Platypus.py", line 9, in <module> import runner ImportError: No module named runner !!! There is a problem at the platypus step

I think this may have something to do with the change in API of Python 2.0...Similar issue with Ansible found on the internet: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_api.html#python-api-2-0 Not sure how to resolve though... help appreciated.

Do you have any more info about the software and your configuration?

The error message is doing exactly what it said. Its failing to find a python module named runner. It's not one I've heard of, so is possibly part of the software itself. Most likely explanation is there is something wrong with your installation. Unless this is a script you're writing/modifying, then you'll need to make sure import runner is somewhere in it - though I suspect the module doesn't exist in the first place.
