Hi all.
Some time ago (years) I had a script on Python 2.2 that would retieve a
HTTPS web site. I used python22-win32-ssl.zip to handle the SSL aspect
and it worked wonderfully. I am revisiting the project and need to
update it to Python 2.4.1. python22-win32-ssl.zip isn't compatable
(duh) and
it
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
# use it
f = urllib2.urlopen('https://www.directshares.com.au')
print f.headers
f.close()
Any ideas what is wrong?

The best one I found was Dive Into Python - and it's free

Also, How to Think Like a computer scientist - can't remember the link.

URLError:
I'm getting a bit frustrated. Do I need to import another library?
Any advise is appreciated.

Yes, on looking into it, sockets.ssl is not installed with
activepython, so it doesn't recognise https. So I have removed it, and
reinstalled the v 2.4.1 which I downloaded from www.python.org . This
leaves me with with the problem where the script 'hangs' for a long
time, then returns:
Traceba
I just tried the https connection through a friends internet connection
which uses a transparent proxy as follows:
import urllib2
f = urllib2.urlopen('https://www.directshares.com.au/')
print f.headers
print f.read()
f.close()
This works fine. So it must be a problem with either the proxyhandler
Following my above comment, if my script works with http, then what is
the problem with https, even when I change the ProxyHandler to specify
https?

Thanks Martin.
The problem seems to lie with our company proxy (which requires
authentication). I have tried retrieving the page on another network
with a transparent proxy, and it all works fine. Unfortnately, any
https page I try to retrieve on the company network fails in this way
with after
I want to connect to a https server through an authenticating proxy
like this:
import urllib2
proxy_info = {
'user' : 'me',
'pass' : 'password',
'host' : 'mycompany.com.au',
'port' : 8008 }
# build a new opener that uses a proxy requiring authorization
proxy_support = urllib2.Pr
Andrew,
It seems I'm not the only one going nuts here. I have just spent the
last 4 hrs stepping through the code in the debugger. It seems to get
stuck somewhere in the socket module (when it calls ssl) but haven't as
yet figured out exactly where.
I am _very_ interested to find that you have
n with the web site, and only then do you pass the url to the
proxy.

Andrew and John,
Any chance of you sending me your code to have a look at?

OK.
I try pyopenssl and can get a secure socket to the server, but am
unsure how to use this socket with urllib2 or even httplib.
Here's the code I'm using:
import sys, socket, string, base64, httplib
from OpenSSL import SSL
# Connects to the server, through the proxy
def run(server, proxy):
I've been trying to find a Python tutorial on threading - does anyone
have a reference?
