According to the documentation, these two sections of code should be equivalent:
conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection(host) conn.putrequest("POST", url) conn.putheader("Proxy-Authorization", myProxy) conn.putheader("Content-Length", "%d" % len(body)) conn.endheaders() conn.send(body) vs headers = { "Proxy-Authorization": myProxy } conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection(host) conn.request("POST", url, body, headers) And yet they are not. The first section works, but I get an "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized" error from the second.
