Funny enough, i stumbled accross the exact same problem yesterday. I'm
currently debugging the cause and i'm down to urllib.py which makes the
same mistake and ftlib.py which works correctly and fails with an error 550.
Yep. I'm guessing bullet point number 7 under "Restrictions" at the
bottom of http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib.html might be the
culprit, but I'm not sure.
For now I'm using ftplib directly in my script, which works but is not
as nice as urllib or urlgrabber when all you want is to download a
file.
Hopefully i'll have a patch ready tonight. I'll send it upstream to
python then, so it might take some more time until that finds it's way
down again.
Great! Thanks for the fast response.
Regards,
Aron
Read ya, Phil
