Hi Sesha:
memoryview is part of the language. Even if you could hide or remove the feature, you would be running a specially broken version of Python, which can't be good. There is surely a better way to fix the code. If it helps any, you're landing here:
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/v2.7.12/Objects/stringobject.c#l819
in a function used to convert strings to an array of bytes within built-in functions. So something that expected a string is being given a memoryview object. But it's not possible to guess what or why, and this isn't the place to explore your code.
Python-dev is about developing the language. Python-list is the place to ask questions about using the language. However, good hunting!

Thanks Rob. I will try upgrade to 2.7.12. Any idea of this memory view object that has been back ported to 2.7 can be disabled in any way? Thanks Regards Sesha
