Alex,
when copying requests to "{GEOSERVER_DATA}/scripts/lib/py/", did you
copy all required dependencies aswell? If not then that might explain
the "package not found" error.
$ pip show requests
[...]
Requires: urllib3, idna, chardet, certifi
$
So pip installing a package in your desired location is a better
alernative than simply copying.
All the best,
Tõnis
