Hello,
I have been using a script on several boxes that have been around for
a while, and everything works just fine. I am finding though, that on
some new OS installs the script fails with:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "render4.py", line 114, in<module>
create_report_index(each_item)
File "render4.py", line 25, in create_report_index
[clean_name, _] = each_value.split('_', 1)
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack
You should check the value of each_value at the point when the script
fails. It sounds like split() is getting passed a string that doesn't
contain any '_' characters at all, resulting in a sequence with only
one value. Passing 1 as the second argument ensures that there will
be at most 1 split, but there may still be fewer.

'each_value' gets its value from D4[report], so check which value of
'report' that is, and look at where 'D4' is filled.
