What was wrong?

When I run Generate Signature, I get the message "AttributeError: SECP256K1_CONTEXT_SIGN"

Please include any of the following that are applicable:

code that generates an error:
private_key = keys
address = add
rqc = "https://rpc.sepolia.org"
w3 = Web3(HTTPProvider(rqc))

msg = Web3.solidity_keccak(['address','uint256'],[address,0])
print(f"Mes:{msg.hex()}")

message = encode_defunct(hexstr=msg.hex())

signed_message = w3.eth.account.sign_message(message,private_key=private_key)
print(f"sig:{signed_message['signature'].hex()}")

I cannot reproduce this using Sepolia and the following code:

from eth_account import Account

acct = Account.create()

msg = Web3.solidity_keccak(['address','uint256'],[acct.address,0])
print(f"Mes:{msg.hex()}")

message = encode_defunct(hexstr=msg.hex())

signed_message = w3.eth.account.sign_message(message,private_key=acct.key)
print(f"sig:{signed_message['signature'].hex()}")
