Loading a Driver

  • Before using the driver, perform the following operations:
    1. Decompress the driver package of the corresponding version and copy psycopg2 to the site-packages folder in the Python installation directory as the root user.
    2. Change the psycopg2 directory permission to 755.

    import  psycopg2
