Error running 'alembic upgrade head'

[dukedougal]

Using Python 2.7 after a fresh install I get the following error. I've dug around in the source for hours and traced it to something to do with overholt/tasks.py but I don't know how to fix it properly.

Any ideas? thanks

$ alembic upgrade head

I had the same problem because I cloned overholt into a directory named "overholt.git". Removing .git fixed it for me - seems to be some alembic error.

This was caused in the end by import problems. Not sure but I think it is because of the "import *" statements. Converting to absolute imports fixed it.
