error loading sqlite3 module

Can anyone please help figuring out why I get the following error:
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading sqlite3 module: No module named _sqlite3

Using MySql works fine. But not with sqlite3, Sqlite is installed, and both python/sqlite3 and django/db/backends/sqlite3 exist.

in settings.py for sqlite3 I am just using:
DATABASE_ENGINE = 'sqlite3'
DATABASE_NAME = 'dtabasename.sql'

no entries for user, password, host, or port.

Thank you!
