I presume they have written an extension module, but haven't done their error handling correctly and are eating some internal information about the error that occurred. Judging by some quick searches online, the software is closed source right? In that case, you could try emailing the provider. If this is the case, you might try to attach to the extension code in a debugger, though I'd assume they've compiled it in a way to make that pretty difficult. Another approach might be not to use the python bindings, but to use whatever other binding are available (say in C?). Then you could try to set things up in the same way and see if an error occurs there and if that error has more information than yours.
