Error loading psycopg2 module: No module named psycopg2

[sithfor]

Hi folks! I've created this new thread to put under your consideration the next problem:

 

I am working with Postgresql database. The settings.py file that had been working before the issue had:

 

DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql_psycopg2'

 

When the problem arise I've also tried with:

 

DATABASE_ENGINE = 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2'

 

The problem occurs when I try to access any url under http://pipona.heliohost.org/mysite/. The traceback is:

Do you need that module installed? Will you post your username, domain, and server?

Hi Geoff. The application using the Postgresql was working fine. I don't know what had happened in the middle. I understand that there was an upgrade of the django version.

 

username: sith

domain: pipona.heliohost.org

server: stevie

 

Best regards,
