Thread: pl/python exceptions.ImportError: No module named _sre

I am also getting this message when I try to execute a plpython function
that imports re:

exceptions.ImportError: No module named _sre

I notice that others have experienced this problem. Anyone have any
ideas? Does anyone have this working?

I am using Redhat 9 and  7.3.2.3

TIA,

Glenn

Mathematical theories are the part of science you could continue to do
if you woke up tomorrow and discovered the universe was gone.

I found a workaround using the pre module (instead of re / sre).

Fortunately I am not using anything specific to re / sre.

Thanks for the tip. I tried the pre module, and it does work on the
example. Unfortunately it does not include Unicode support, so I can't
use it for my project.

Hopefully it is just a matter of changing the way pl/python searches for
trusted components.

Anybody else run into the problem?
