Python and Flask beginner and completely new to Python Anywhere so please be really basic in your responses. I followed a tutorial to get Flask up and running on my PythonAnywhere account but then realized it was going to be really cumbersome to build out the application on PA so I built it locally. I've uploaded all of the changes to PA, fixed the first issue/ error message but now I'm stumped on the second. I've gone through all of the search results for similar issues and none of the solutions are panning out for me. I'm guessing it's a simple issue with my configuration in WSGI or the Python script interface. Please help and thanks in advance. - Scott

Error message is as follows:

2018-10-31 23:27:45,927: Error running WSGI application
2018-10-31 23:27:45,932: ImportError: cannot import name 'app'
2018-10-31 23:27:45,932:   File "/var/www/larsen_pythonanywhere_com_wsgi.py", line 111, in <module>
2018-10-31 23:27:45,933:     from WW_RSVP import app as application  # noqa

Relevant part of WSGI file:

import sys
path = '/home/larsen/WW_RSVP'
if path not in sys.path:
    sys.path.insert(0, path)
    # sys.path.append(path)

from WW_RSVP import app as application  # noqa

Can't seem to get this to format properly but everything after this is the WW_RSVP.py (main flask file) within the /home/larsen/WW_RSVP directory.

That just means there is no 'app' in the first WW_RSVP on your python path. See here: http://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/DebuggingImportError/ for how to understand what's going on and how to debug it.
