UnboundLocalError when setting up JDBC pool

Question

Hi,
I try to use the wlst code snippet generated by the configToScript().
When I create the pool it works fine. But when I try to run the same script it gives:
File "testConfigure.py", line 20, in ?
File "Utils.py", line 20, in createPool
UnboundLocalError: local: 'Exception'
I have the following code:
def createPool(self, poolName, properties, password, URL, target,
     capacity=2,
          driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"):
print 'configuring resource: JDBCConnectionPool'+poolName
try:
myResource = create(poolName, "JDBCConnectionPool")
except Exception:
print 'This resource JDBCConnectionPool with name' poolName 'failed to be created. The script will try to get it anyways.'
myResource = (getTarget("JDBCConnectionPool/"+poolName))
myResource.setDriverName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver")
myResource.setInitialCapacity(capacity)
myResource.setMaxCapacity(capacity)
myResource.setPassword(password)
myResource.setProperties(makePropertiesObject(properties))
myResource.setURL(URL)
myResource.setTestTableName("SQL select 1 from dual")
myResource.setTestConnectionsOnReserve(1)
# If this fails you will have to add this target manually from the console or WLST's deploy command
from java.lang import Exception
from java.lang import Throwable
try:
myResource.addTarget(target)
except Throwable, th:
tgt = th.toString()
strTgt = str(clusterTarget0)
print 'Problem in adding target '+strTgt+ ' due to '+tgt
The exception is refering to the line that creates the pool.
I'd appreciate any help with this.
Thanks,

Hello Cuneyt,
Please move both these imports to the top of your file,
<i>from java.lang import Exception
from java.lang import Throwable</i>
that should fix the problem.
