Yes, please provide more information about the pysibelius package,
especially if this is the case.

The few tenuous Python/Sibelius links I found didn't have anything on
pysibelius, unfortunately.

Hi,

pysibelius is a lib that we use.

I am not sure that is the problem since the python program works on
SuSE but not on RH server. And AFAIK
the only difference ( well that I can see) is the OpenSSL version.

According to code it uses openssl:

<built-in function openssl_md5>

So I need to find a way to convince the linux sys admin to install
same version of openssl on both servers.

Thanks a lot for your valuable time.

Unfortunately that's going to be fairly difficult, as they would have to
install a new version of openssl alongside the existing system version,
which you can't just replace. Or it might be possible to copy the
openssl libraries from SuSE over. Either way you will have to use the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or the LD_LIBRARY_PRELOAD environment variables to get
PySibelius to load that version instead of the system one.

OpenSSL is irrelevant. If it isn't available, or doesn't provide md5,
then the hashlib library will use its own implementation. But the _md5
module is missing in the pysibelius Python on your RedHat system.

As I said, your Python installation is seriously broken. Required modules
are just *gone*.

pysibelius appears to have patched Python in some way, because strange
unexpected error messages are being printed that do not happen on a
normal unpatched Python, e.g.:

ERROR:root:code for hash sha224 was not found.

That is not a normal Python error message. That looks like something
added by pysibelius.

I had that problem after moving my Python installation into another directory. Reinstalling Python helped.

Dear Laurent,

I have encountered similar problem and your suggestion was helpful. Thanks a lot!
