I was using httplib to power my xml rpc script. I had problems when I wanted to use SSL and I got this error: File "/usr/lib/python2.5/httplib.py", line 1109, in recv return self._ssl.read(len) socket.sslerror: (8, 'EOF occurred in violation of protocol')
I figured out this was because of poor error handling in python. May I suggest this as a fix to this bug: $ diff /usr/lib/python2.5/httplib.py /usr/lib/python2.5/httplib.py~ 1109,1112c1109 < try: < return self._ssl.read(len) < except socket.sslerror: < return --- > return self._ssl.read(len) Just a note. I am by no means a python expert, just good enough to get my work done. I use Ubuntu gutsy. -- Thanks, Richie Ward _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
