You really need to do some debugging here. There must be more error message than that, or there are some issues with libdl on the target system. A common problem is that it gives an error message that some symbols could not be found when loading the shared library, and that these symbols originate from Python run-time. In this case, the reason is that the executable does not export the Python symbols; you need to pass -export-dynamic to the linker of the container application. This is all guessing, of course: you didn't even say whether the target system is Unixish-ELF-based. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
