I'm getting "ImportError: No module named site" echo %pythonpath% gives c:\readerisdead I copied 'base' from the readerisdead zipfile to c:\python27\lib & also copied the base folder into the same folder as reader_archive.py C:\readerisdead\reader_archive\reader_archive.py --output-directory C:\googlereader gives "ImportError: No module named site" What am I doing wrong? How can I get this to work?
