Python CGI End of script output before headers error

To begin, yes there are other similarly titled questions, no this is not a duplicate.

I'm having a very odd problem when I'm using python and CGI on my webserver.

The following gives the indicated error

#! /python34/python
import cgi, Cookie, os
print("Content-Type: text/html\n")
print("Output")

However, if I don't import Cookie, it works

#! /python34/python
import cgi, os
print("Content-Type: text/html\n")
print("Output")

Any ideas on this?

The tutorial you're following is likely for Python 2. The Cookie library was renamed to http.cookies in Python 3. If you run 2to3 over your code it should highlight any changes you need to make.
