Category: Extension Modules Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: K Lars Lohn (lohnk) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: uncaught AttributeError deep in urllib Initial Comment: Python 2.4 and Python 2.3.4 running under Suse 9.2 We're getting an AttributeError exception "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'read'" within a very simple call to urllib.urlopen. This was discovered while working on Sentry 2, the new mirror integrity checker for the Mozilla project. We try to touch hundreds of URLs to make sure that the files are present on each of the mirrors. One particular URL kills the call to urllib.urlopen: http://mozilla.mirrors.skynet.be/pub/ftp.mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.0/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%201.0.exe This file probably does not exist on the mirror, however, in other cases of bad URLs, we get much more graceful failures when we try to read from the object returned by urllib.urlopen. >>> import urllib >>> urlReader = >>> urllib.urlopen("http://mozilla.mirrors.skynet.be/pub/ftp.mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.0/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%201.0.exe";) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?

On 3/14 the problem has mysteriously vanished.... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jarek Zgoda (zgoda) Date: 2005-03-15 01:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=92222 No such error on Windows: Python 2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 11:49:19) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1163401&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
