They should work out of the box, but you'll need to provide some more information for anyone to help. What are you seeing happen? Are there any error messages? Are you running web apps or command-line scripts?

That message doesn't sound like something from the standard library. Are you perhaps using the code in this post? That appears to produce exactly the error you mention. If so, you could read through that post and check if the problems mentioned are what you're seeing.
