Hi list! I'm struggling with a recipe from the Python Cookbook (2nd ed.) concerning XML-RPC. It's recipe 15.2 "Serving XML-RPC Requests", and since I thought it's a popular book some other folks might have discovered (and probably solved) the same issue.
The recipe provides server and client code, and I get an error when trying the following client request: print server.python_string.join(['I', 'like it!'], " don't ") (In the server code the string name space is mapped into the 'python_string' member with "import string; self.python_string = string"). The error report says: xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault 1: '<type \'exceptions.Exception\'>:method "python_string.join" is not supported'> This happens with all the string methods in StringFunctions.python_string. Is there a general issue with mapping name spaces into an RPC object? Or am I missing a major point here? I tried all of this on a fairly up-to-date Linux with a stock Python 2.5 (also tried with WinXP/cygwin/Python2.5.1 and with a Stackless 2.5.1, always with same outcome, so I don't believe it's an issue of a local installation). Any hints? =Thomas -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
