python script not working in event command

Hi,

I have a python script that ran fine in 3.x. It no longer works in 4.x via event command. The script does however work running from the command line as the zenoss user. After much troubleshooting, I have narrowed down that the imports in the beginning of the script are causing problems. It seems as though the the environment is set different running the command from the event commands then from the command line. This was narrowed down using try accept clause within the script to capture what the specific error was and then write it out to a file. These are the imports

from SOAPpy import SOAPProxy

import sys

import re

import smtplib

import MySQLdb

import string

import time

from datetime import datetime

# additional Zenoss modules for closing/acknowledging

import Globals

from Products.ZenUtils.ZenScriptBase import ZenScriptBase

from transaction import commit

Thanks for any help
