Problems with XMLRPC I have an xmlrpc server with a method called results() which returns an XML message.
I've been able to use this function without problems when I had only one client talking to one server. I have recently introduced a P2P aspect to this process and now I have servers calling each other's methods all the time. I am running into some bugs which I am unable to debug. I am using http://rpdb.digitalpeers.com/Download.htm As per the instructions, I called rpdb.set_trace() right before calling server.serve_forever(). Then I ran the server, and ran the client. At a certain point, the client asks the server for the results(), and instead of getting a proper result, I get this exception: /usr/lib/python2.3/xmlrpclib.py in close(self=<xmlrpclib.Unmarshaller instance>) 743 raise ResponseError() 744 if self._type == "fault": 745 raise Fault(**self._stack[0]) 746 return tuple(self._stack) 747 global Fault = <class xmlrpclib.Fault>, self = <xmlrpclib.Unmarshaller instance>, self._stack = [{'faultCode': 1, 'faultString': 'exceptions.ValueError:too many values to unpack'}] Fault: args = () faultCode = 1 faultString = 'exceptions.ValueError:too many values to unpack' I thought that my rpdb problems were related to the fact that I was multiply-inheriting from SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn (which I believe starts a new thread for each incoming request), so I changed this: class QueryServer(SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn, SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer): to this: class QueryServer(SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer): I am still unable to set a breakpoint in the results() method. I'd really like to trace through it so I can figure out why I am getting this weird exception. Any ideas? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
