title: How can I import the sqlite3 module into Python 2.4?
body: <p>The sqlite3 module is included in Python version 2.5+. However, I am stuck with version 2.4. I uploaded the sqlite3 module files, added the directory to sys.path, but I get the following error when I try to import it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in ?
    File "sqlite3/__init__.py", line 23, in ?
      from dbapi2 import *
    File "sqlite3/dbapi2.py", line 26, in ?
      from _sqlite3 import *
  ImportError: No module named _sqlite3
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The file '_sqlite3' is in lib-dynload, but if I include this in the sqlite3 directory, I get additional errors.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions? I am working in a limited environment; I don't have access to GCC, among other things.</p>
