I have been following the guide for creating the custom open academy module, but am having problems trying to install the module. I have managed to get it to show up in the list of modules, but when I try to install it I get the error below.

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi Josh,

Without the code it is tough to tell. My suspicion would be that you may be trying something like:

from openacademy import ... instead of from openerp import ...?
