Unfortunately there's not a lot of information there to go on, which is
why you haven't got any replies yet.  What was the python program you
tried to run? How did you run it?  The error message you quote does not
appear to be a Python error message, so I'm not sure where it is coming
from.  It's possible the python interpreter itself crashed, which is
unusual, especially for a simple program.  Can you post the entire
python program you were trying to run?

Also can you try a simple program of your own such as this as a sanity
check?

print ("Hello, World.")
