Sorry for the delayed response, I was on paternity leave since August.

I haven't seen the actual error in this thread. Is there a clear python
error being thrown? Maybe the fix is simple but I can't

But as mentioned elsewhere, python2 has been End of Life since Jan 1
2020, over 1.5 years ago. It's going to become increasingly difficult to
keep code working on python2 and latest python3.
