PyOpenGL - import error: No module named GL

I recently installed pythonxy and tried to run code which start with (in Eclipse):

from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *
from OpenGL.GLU import *

and got

from OpenGL.GL import *
ImportError: No module named GL

I uninstalled pythonxy, install full version of EPD and the same error...

sys.path gave me:

['D:\\eclipse-java-indigo-SR2-   win32\\eclipse\\plugins\\org.python.pydev_2.7.1.2012100913\\pysrc',
'C:\\Users\\Kuba\\workspace\\python\\ThinkPython\\src',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\pyopengl-3.0.2-py2.7-win32.egg',
'C:\\Python27\\python27.zip',
'C:\\Python27\\DLLs',
'C:\\Python27\\lib',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\plat-win',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk',
'C:\\Python27',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\win32',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\win32\\lib',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\Pythonwin',
'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\IPython\\extensions']

As you can see - I'm working on Windows machine.

I saw similar questions here, but nothing helped...

I'm new to python - maybe solution is simple...

Any suggestions ?

Regards

I got the same error for filename is OpenGL.py. If your file's name is the same, try renaming it.

You have an installation issue with your PyOpenGL module. Older versions of EPD (pre 6.2-1) had an issue with the 64bit PyOpenGL package - you may need to update EPD.

Alternatively, you could try to install through easy_install

C:\Python27\scripts\easy_install pyopengl

or pip

C:\Python27\scripts\pip pyopengl

or using the binaries on Christoph Gohlke's site.

Personally I'd recommend installing Chris' binaries - they've always worked well for me.
