Package: python3-winrm Version: 0.0.3-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, After installing python3-winrm and trying to follow the getting started example on https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pywinrm This fails: edb@lapelidb:/tmp$ cat test.py #!/usr/bin/env python import winrm s = winrm.Session("1.2.3.4", auth=("admin", "admin")) s.run_cmd("ipconfig", ["/all"]) edb@lapelidb:/tmp$ python3 test.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 5, in <module> s.run_cmd("ipconfig", ["/all"]) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/winrm/__init__.py", line 28, in run_cmd shell_id = self.protocol.open_shell() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/winrm/protocol.py", line 103, in open_shell rs = self.send_message(xmltodict.unparse(rq)) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/winrm/protocol.py", line 173, in send_message return self.transport.send_message(message) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/winrm/transport.py", line 76, in send_message response = urlopen(request, timeout=self.timeout) File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 162, in urlopen return opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 463, in open req = meth(req) File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 1170, in do_request_ raise TypeError(msg) TypeError: POST data should be bytes or an iterable of bytes. It cannot be of type str. There are some reports upstream: - https://github.com/diyan/pywinrm/issues/47 - https://github.com/diyan/pywinrm/issues/80 I tested the latest upstream release (0.1.1 installed through pip3) which gave the same result. On my system I tried to hotfix the version form the package, inspired upon this pull request https://github.com/diyan/pywinrm/pull/70 Mainly patching send_message() in protocol.py (lines 170-173) into def send_message(self, message): # TODO add message_id vs relates_to checking # TODO port error handling code return self.transport.send_message(message.encode("utf-8")) And for me the package continued beyond this point. So summary: - python3-winrm as available through apt is broken. - pywinrm as available today through pip (v 0.1.1) suffers from the same problem on my system. my 2 cents E. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages python3-winrm depends on: ii python3-isodate 0.5.4-1 ii python3-xmltodict 0.9.2-3 pn python3:any <none> Versions of packages python3-winrm recommends: ii python3-kerberos 1.1.5-2+b2 python3-winrm suggests no packages. -- no debconf information This message is subject to the following terms and conditions: MAIL DISCLAIMER<http://www.barco.com/en/maildisclaimer> _______________________________________________ Python-modules-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team
