Maya.env custom ['MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH']

I have created a project in my userFolder:

/Users/Goffer/myRig

In my Maya.env, I have added the following lines:

SHARED_MAYA_DIR = HostName:/Users/Goffer
MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH = $SHARED_MAYA_DIR/myRig

In Maya, when I print os.environ['MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH']

I can see my folder as:

HostName:/Users/Goffer/myRig

Then, when I try to import a module:

import myRig.utils.qtUtils

it says:

Error: ImportError: file line 1: No module named myRig.utils.qtUtils

I have an __ init__.py in each one of my folders.

Am I missing something?

You may need to check the paths that Python is pointed to in order to see if it sees your directory.

import sys
for path in sys.path:
    print path

If your directory is not there you need to add your path to PYTHONPATH environment variable, since MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH is for mel scripts (Correct me if I'm wrong!).

You can also check the paths that are in PYTHONPATH like this.

for path in os.getenv('PYTHONPATH').split(':'): # May need to split with ';' depending on what OS you're in
    print path
