But: yes, this is all the time my laptop.

I had the same idea... but a small script querying the IMDB database works perfectly in the console, but gives an error in PG. THe error is not so obvious like in the geocoder case, but in any case the movie data are not loaded. > Another way to analyze the problem could be to sniff the network traffic and > see what really happens when you make the function call.

I see wireshark changed a lot since the last time I used it... if I'm using it the right way, the thing is pointing in the direction I thought: there is NO CONNECTION from PG to the internet when I use the function. I dont see any packages. From the python console there is a connection to nominatim (openstreetmap). I think there is exactly the problem: PG does not make any attempt (or it does but it fails even before any package is being sent) to the internet.
