Hi everyone, i ran into this exception and found this post answering the question, hope it helps in my case, i have developed both programs python and dotnet in separate directories and imported the dotnet bin into python’s app dir and it works fine so far https://stackoverflow.com/a/63728744/12821529

Hmm… The issue is that Python just “imports” the MyApp directory as a “namespace package”, not sure why. If you rename it or run your program from a different path, it works just fine.
