Hi, running Python 2.7 test suite for urllib2 there is a test that doesn't pass. Do you have an idea about where the problem could be and how to solve it?
Thanks, best regards. $ # ubuntu 8.04 $ pwd ~/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/test $ python test_urllib2.py ====================================================================== ERROR: test_file (__main__.HandlerTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "test_urllib2.py", line 711, in test_file h.file_open, Request(url)) File "/home/redt/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/unittest/case.py", line 456, in assertRaises callableObj(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/redt/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1269, in file_open return self.open_local_file(req) File "/home/redt/sandbox/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1301, in open_local_file (not port and socket.gethostbyname(host) in self.get_names()): gaierror: [Errno -5] No address associated with hostname Notes: $ hostname speedy $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain speedy ::1 localhost speedy ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts Finally, I don't know if this matters but the tests have been executed offline (without an internet connection). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
