Is it possible that plpython.so is linked against an old version of libpython? I see that the error message changed a few years ago: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/python/python/dist/src/Python/exceptions.c?r1=1.44&r2=1.45 http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/python/python/dist/src/Python/exceptions.c?r1=1.45&r2=1.46 As I recall, Python must be configured with --enable-shared or you don't get a shared version of libpython, so if you installed a new Python but not a new version of libpython.*.so, then plpython.so might be linked against an old version. Does this machine have ldd or the equivalent? If so, can you compare "ldd /path/to/python" and "ldd /path/to/plpython.so"? -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
