Hi Graham,

Here's what we're getting when we attempt to access the __file__ attribute 
of the imported requests library:

We've previously tried printing out all of the attributes of requests after 
it is imported and a severely truncated list of attributes is provided back:
[
    "__doc__",
    "__loader__",
    "__name__",
    "__package__",
    "__path__",
    "__spec__"
  ]

Here's the contents of requests.__path__ during runtime:
[Thu Sep 28 15:54:21.196608 2017] [wsgi:error] [pid 11443:tid 
140183901226752] requests.__path__ : 
_NamespacePath(['/var/www/sites/api/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/requests'])

Manually running the Flask package I get the expected results from the 
print statement:
(venv) root@ub50368:/var/www/sites/api# python rest_api_v1/
requests.__file__ 
/var/www/sites/api/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/requests/__init__.py
