Wes Chow added the comment: This same bug also exists in HTTPClient, and my patch addresses that. Addressing it in HTTPClient has a side effect of taking care of it for urllib2 as well (and all future libraries that use HTTPClient). Even if the urllib2 patch is preferable, shouldn't we fix th

Senthil Kumaran added the comment: Fixed it in r86676 (py3k), r86677 ( release31-maint) and r86678(release27-maint). Wes: I fixed it at the much higher level in the urlparse itself, so that the fixed url is sent to the httplib. In issue2464, John had pointed out that according to STD 66, pa

Wes Chow added the comment: Attached is a patch against 3.2 that replaces empty paths with '/' in HTTPConnection. I do not totally understand the ; syntax in URIs, and so this implementation may break that, as it splits urls and unsplits them if needed. The Python docs seem to indicate there

[issue4493] urllib2 doesn't always supply / where URI path component is empty

New submission from John J Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: As required by RFC 2616 section 3.2.2, for all HTTP requests sent by urllib2, the path component of the URI should be normalized to "/" before the Request-URI derived from it gets passed to httplib (or something functionally equivalent to that).
