I'm trying to find a point along a series of line at a specified percentage of each line (the percentage along the line changes with every point too). I found ArcGIS documentation of the data management tool GeneratePointsAlongLines, but when I try to use it I get the error message:

'module' object has no attribute GeneratePointsAlongLines

What am I doing wrong here? Is there an easier way to go about this rather than Generate Points Along Lines. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use positionAlongLine, but it looks like it could be helpful. Thoughts?
