Description
Migrated issue, originally created by Anonymous
Per a comment here: http://code.google.com/p/appengine-monkey/wiki/Pylons
I was briefly confused by the following error:
Error - <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'module' object has no attribute 'load_source'
I had pointed my development.ini to the default one created by Pylons - which has caching turned on. This makes Mako attemp to call imp.load_source, which isnt part of GAE. Turned off caching and it works like a charm.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the error with Mako caching enabled, using the development.ini setup described in the issue and the Google App Engine environment. Trace the caching path that reaches imp.load_source; done means the template workflow no longer requires that unavailable function while caching remains usable.
