Could not initialize event manager: Invalid version: '/usr/lib/python3.9/site'

Updated my Nexus phone to latest octo4a and now getting an error on the start up of the Octoprint server:

Anyone know the cause or how to install a valid version of python3.9?

Well, I should have checked the Issues area first. Didnt find the python error there, but ran across these instructions to fix a new install, which fixed my issue, back up and running. Now if only I could find an USB C connector that works for charging my phone and connecting the printer. I have a splitter cable and a USB hub that will charge my phone but not connect to a printer, and another USB hub that will connect the printer but not charge my phone :(

Just ran into the same issue while upgrading the app on my Nexus 7, and your link helped!! Much appreciated.
Re: charging, it wouldn't be the same adapter since yours has a USB C port, but I'm able to charge and connect with this cable MOST of the time on my tablet even though it says it won't work. Good luck! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XD73SCH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
