New submission from Leo Shklovskii <l...@thermopylae.net>: >From my understanding of the documentation, the expected behavior is for >xmlrpclib to raise an xmlrpclib.Fault wrapping the original error from >whatever parser it chose to use if there's an error in parsing the response.
If, however, its using Expat under the hood and the response is completely blank, the ExpatError percolates up to the calling code unwrapped. The following stack trace /usr/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.pyc in __call__(self, *args) 1197 return _Method(self.__send, "%s.%s" % (self.__name, name)) 1198 def __call__(self, *args): -> 1199 return self.__send(self.__name, args) 1200 1201 ## /usr/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.pyc in __request(self, methodname, params) 1487 self.__handler, 1488 request, -> 1489 verbose=self.__verbose 1490 ) 1491 /usr/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.pyc in request(self, host, handler, request_body, verbose) 1251 sock = None 1252 -> 1253 return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock) 1254 1255 ## /usr/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.pyc in _parse_response(self, file, sock) 1388 1389 file.close() -> 1390 p.close() 1391 1392 return u.close() /usr/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.pyc in close(self) 602 603 def close(self): --> 604 self._parser.Parse("", 1) # end of data 605 del self._target, self._parser # get rid of circular references 606 ExpatError: no element found: line 1, column 0 Please let me know if I'm misinterpreting the docs or if you need any other information to repro this bug. ---------- components: XML messages: 118721 nosy: leos priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ExpatError not property wrapped type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10108> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
