This could be the problem, since you are probably on CentOS or Redhat a version of Python < 2.5 will not have hashlib built in
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/hashlib/20060408a is where you can get one tested on 2.3 and 2.4 I have not had to do something like this yet but I believe site- packages is probably where you would put it, not sure. http://groups.google.com/group/web2py-developers/browse_thread/thread/6d8d80437938a4b7 talks about this.
