Hello all,
I am trying to find out the reason for some weird behavior on Windows.
We have the following code:
import urllib2
req = urllib2.Request("https://benotificationsmock.cloudapp.net:8443";)
resp = urllib2.urlopen(req, timeout = 5)
print resp.code
This simple script should print "200". However, all I ever get when running
this on any Windows machine (for reference, mine is Windows 7, Python 2.7.3 and
OpenSSL 1.0.0c / 0.9.8x) is the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "foo.py", line 5, in <module>
resp = urllib2.urlopen(req, timeout = 5)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 126, in urlopen
return _opener.open(url, data, timeout)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 400, in open
response = self._open(req, data)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 418, in _open
'_open', req)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 378, in _call_chain
result = func(*args)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 1215, in https_open
return self.do_open(httplib.HTTPSConnection, req)
File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 1177, in do_open
raise URLError(err)
urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error timed out>
Firewalls are not at fault here, as netstat reports that the connection is
being established. The only problem is that reading from the socket seems to
fail.
The exact same code runs fine on Linux. The only way to make it work on Windows
is to remove the non-standard port.
Did anyone else encounter this weird behavior? Can anyone give any suggestions?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Claudiu
