I am trying to upload a bunch of web pages to a hosting service.[...] I wrote a loop that iterates through the file names and calls either of the stor... () methods as appropriate. The loop successfully uploads eight of some twenty files and then freezes. Ctrl-C doesn't unlock the freeze. I have to kill the IDLE window

freezes are less predictable than it seemed in the beginning. On one occasion it occurred after the transfer of a single file from the IDLE command line (my_ftp_object.storlines ("STOR file_name", f). The file did upload. So the freezes seem to occur after a successful transfer.

In this thread from last month, Sean DiZazzo shows how to add a timeout parameter to storbinary:

Do the same with storlines and see whether it helps.

Thanks a million! Here's a way out by the look of it. As the devil is in the details I get an error that indicates an inconsistency in my ftplib library (2.4) (*** marks my comments):

Traceback (most recent call last):

error_reply: 200 TYPE is now 8-bit binary <*** 'is now' indicates something has changed resulting in an inconsistency

Is 'resp' supposed to be an int (227) rather than a string ('227')? Probably a wrong conclusion. In version 2.5 it is still a string. Anyway, I can't start editing the library trial-and-error style. So, I do thank you for the push. Mores pushes will be greatly appreciated, but I hesitate to invite travel companions for a stroll into this wilderness.

resp is a string, but not the response that PASV expected; apparently the server is sending some unexpected responses. r52739 seems to fix that. Perhaps you should upgrade to a newer Python version.

http://svn.python.org/view?view=rev&revision=52739


I know I should upgrade.That I shall do next. Not today, though. First I need a new computer, because my OS (Windows ME) is so outdated that installations fail with the recommendation to upgrade to a newer installer. Anyway, I do thank you very much for your assistance. With the r52739 fix I should be okay.

Regards

Frederic
