Answer 1

Resolved,

It was an issue of the Anaconda.

I installed the Explorer to a different user that does not contain Anaconda and installed  pycrypto which initially failed to cleanly install on the user with Anaconda.

Now I had to edit the datadir path in the new user to point to the chain in the former user, then it was done. But the commands to launch now use sudo, I guess its because of fetching the blockchain data from the other user, this set up is on a hosted dedicated server.
