Hi all, I am trying to connect to localhost via httplib, but it fails. To check whether it is a firewall problem etc, I tried to connect via urllib2, but it went through fine.
Could some one help me out on this? I cannot use urllib2 in the
program because I have to send files via post to a url, and urllib2 doesn't support it (Python2.4) Please see the code below: -->HTTPLIB<-- h = httplib.HTTPConnection("http://127.0.0.1:8000") h.request('GET', "/accounts/") res = h.getresponse()
Which aspect of the documentation: http://docs.python.org/library/httplib.html leads you to think that the first parameter to httplib.HTTPConnection should be a URL? <dump>
import httplib httplib.HTTPConnection ("127.0.0.1")
<httplib.HTTPConnection instance at 0x00AAB508>
httplib.HTTPConnection ("localhost")
<httplib.HTTPConnection instance at 0x00B40558>
</dump> TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
