I just tried the documented interfaces for PyPI
(https://wiki.python.org/moin/PyPIXmlRpc) with Python 2.6 and
it fails with an error:
> python pypirpc.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pypirpc.py", line 7, in <module>
pprint.pprint(client.package_releases('egenix-web-installer-test'))
File "/usr/local/python-2.6-ucs2/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1199, in
__call__
return self.__send(self.__name, args)
File "/usr/local/python-2.6-ucs2/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1489, in
__request

return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock)
File "/usr/local/python-2.6-ucs2/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1390, in
_parse_response
p.close()
File "/usr/local/python-2.6-ucs2/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 604, in

self._parser.Parse("", 1) # end of data
xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: no element found: line 1, column 0
The call works with Python 2.7. It appears that xmlrpclib
is not receiving any body data from the server.
The returned data in 2.7 looks completely harmless:
send: "POST /pypi HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: pypi.python.org\r\nAccept-Encoding:
gzip\r\nUser-Agent:
xmlrpclib.py/1.0.1 (by www.pythonware.com)\r\nContent-Type:

Could this be a network error rather than a program one ?
The code in 2.7 does a retry in case of a connection reset or abort,
which code in 2.6 and earlier does not apply.
Thanks,
