New submission from Yuval Greenfield <ubershme...@gmail.com>: When trying to use urllib to open a page from a server with NTLM authentication python raises urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized
A python 3 code example: http://codepad.org/axPomYHw This was a bit confusing for me as I had to debug urllib to figure out python doesn't support NTLM. I'd expect python to tell me the authentication method isn't supported in such cases. I didn't add a test for the attached patch as it doesn't seem test-worthy. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: urllib.auth.patch keywords: patch messages: 133248 nosy: ubershmekel priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: urllib HTTP authentication behavior with unrecognized auth method type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21567/urllib.auth.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11799> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
