Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Dug Song (dugsong) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: urllib HTTPS Basic authentication fix Initial Comment: urllib's support for HTTP Basic authentication via HTTPS is broken, due to an invalid call in URLopener.open_https() to HTTPConnection.putheader() (apparently miscopied from URLopener.open_http(), which gets it right). the code incorrectly calls putheader with a fully formatted header instead of passing a name and value separately, resulting in a badly formatted header ending with a trailing colon. the fix is trivial. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1617413&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
