PyImport_ImportModule("cStringIO") failure with undefined symbol

[Borse, Ganesh]

Hi,
Can you please guide me for the following problem?
The call to "PyImport_ImportModule("cStringIO");" is failing with an error of "undefined symbol: PyObject_SelfIter".

Before importing this module, I am importing only the sys module.

   Py_SetProgramName("/usr/bin/python");
   Py_Initialize();
   char* argv[] = { "python","-v",""};
   PySys_SetArgv(2,argv);
   PyRun_SimpleString("import sys");

   PyObject *modStringIO = NULL;
   // Import cStringIO module
   modStringIO = PyImport_ImportModule("cStringIO");

Should I be importing any other additional module(s) to make this import work?

Please help.

I am trying to use the function GetPythonErrorMessage provided in this post:

Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards.
