Greg Roodt <gro...@gmail.com> added the comment: I've made a small change to urllib2 to catch the httplib.BadStatusLine and raise as URLError. This exception should rarely happen as it means the server is returning invalid responses. Nevertheless, I've added a test and hopefully fixed the issue.
Patch is attached. I will check if this needs to be added to newer versions of Python. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +groodt Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file26298/bad_status_urlerror.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8823> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
