Something is messed up with your Python and/or openssl. This isn't a Review Board issue.

Python 2.7.5 is quite old (over 6 years). I highly recommend upgrading to the latest 2.7.x if you can.

It might be something we can work around (though Python 2.7.5 *is* very old and buggy -- I agree that you'll want to upgrade it to avoid a multitude of problems they've fixed in subsequent releases).

Suresh, can you supply the full backtrace? I need to see what the call is that's triggering this.

Thanks Christian,

Unfortunately, I have reimaged the server and am trying to bring it up again as I felt the suggestions provided by David may be reason for causing this error.
Will let you know incase I face the same issue again here.

Regards,
Suresh.
