Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John J Lee (jjlee) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: urllib2.urlopen() hangs due to use of socket._fileobject? Initial Comment: To reproduce: import urllib2 print urllib2.urlopen("http://66.117.37.13/").read() The attached patch "fixes" the hang, but that patch is not acceptable because it also removes the .readline() and .readlines() methods on the response object returned by urllib2.urlopen(). The patch seems to demonstrate that the problem is caused by the (ab)use of socket._fileobject in urllib2.AbstractHTTPHandler (I believe this hack was introduced when urllib2 switched to using httplib.HTTPConnection). Not sure yet what the actual problem is... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1411097&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
