On linux the system sqlite3 is used. >> >> Try: >> >>>>> import sqlite3 # no leading underscore > > import sqlite3 > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/sqlite3/__init__.py", line 24, in > <module> > from dbapi2 import * > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/sqlite3/dbapi2.py", line 28, in <module> > from _sqlite3 import * > ImportError: No module named _sqlite3 Is that a Python version that you compiled yourself? When the compilation finishes you get a list of missing modules. Usually the problem are missing header files. On Debian you can install the corressponding xxx-dev packages, e. g. $ sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev for libsqlite3. I don't know what the Redhat equivalent is. PS: There may also be a command like $ sudo apt-get build-dep python2.7 to install all build dependencies for the system Python which tend to be the same as that for a custom Python version. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
