When I try to load my config with a python parser in it I'm getting this error message:

Starting /opt/syslog-ng/sbin/syslog-ng: [2017-12-29T23:00:05.813945] Error loading Python module; module='_syslogng', exception='exceptions.ImportError: No module named _syslogng'

[2017-12-29T23:00:05.814066] Error looking Python parser class; parser='p_php_fpm', class='PhpFpmParser', exception='None'

[2017-12-29T23:00:05.814116] Error initializing message pipeline; plugin name='python', location='/opt/syslog-ng/etc/syslog-ng.conf:52:20'

I build syslog-ng from source with the python options. Here is the -V output

Not sure how to fix this as from what I can tell this module is supposed to be compiled in and automatically imported.
