(I assume you meant --nostatus) For me the simple test of a file with:
import os os.system("chimera --nogui --nostatus") works just fine. So it's probably something about your particular setup that is tickling this bug.
It might be the directory that you're running the script in, it might have python modules/packages that conflict with chimera's. Or it might something in the environment. Chimera tries to protect its python from the user's environment, but maybe we missed something. Also double check that the chimera you're invoking is the one you're expecting -- try using an absolute path to chimera while you're debugging this.

Hi There,
I am trying to call a script with Chimera commands(saved as sample.py file) in another python program using os.system("chimera --nogui --nostats sample.py") and I get an module load error as below,
import chimera
ImportError: No module named chimera
However, if I call the script with chimera it works, for eg., chimera --nogui --nostats sample.py typed directly in terminal is working.
Can anybody help fix this error?
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Subha
