This problem is, I believe, typically caused by having used the wrong version of python to build boost. Your system has py2.4 installed as well as py2.6 and, I guess, python2.4 was used to build the boost.python wrappers. You ought to be able to verify this by doing: ldd /usr/local/lib/libboost_python.so.1.50.0 (I think the boost build process dynamically links the python shared library, so you should see it somewhere in the output of that command). There are instructions here for configuring the boost.python build: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_50_0/libs/python/doc/building.html#python-configuration-parameters -greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
