Perhaps it is worth comparing the HTTP header fields being sent and received. You can enable debug messages to see the request sent, and print the response fields directly. Most important things to look for are the Content-Length and Transfer-Encoding (if any) fields in the response. >>> import urllib.request >>> url = "https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/json/applets.json"; >>> handler = urllib.request.HTTPSHandler(debuglevel=1) >>> opener = urllib.request.build_opener(handler) >>> resp = opener.open(url) send: b'GET /json/applets.json HTTP/1.1\r\nAccept-Encoding: identity\r\nHost: cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com\r\nUser-Agent: Python-urllib/3.6\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n' reply: 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n' header: Server header: Date header: Content-Type header: Content-Length header: Connection header: Last-Modified header: ETag header: X-Sucuri-Cache header: X-XSS-Protection header: X-Frame-Options header: X-Content-Type-Options header: X-Sucuri-ID header: Accept-Ranges $ >>> print(response.info()) Server: Sucuri/Cloudproxy Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2018 07:18:11 GMT Content-Type: application/json Content-Length: 70576 Connection: close Last-Modified: Mon, 13 Aug 2018 07:25:14 GMT ETag: "113b0-5734bfe97145e" X-Sucuri-Cache: HIT X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff X-Sucuri-ID: 11014 Accept-Ranges: bytes >>> data = resp.read() >>> len(data) 70576 Another experiment would be to try “http.client” directly, which I understand is used by both the built-in “urllib.request” module, and “urllib3”: from http.client import HTTPSConnection conn = HTTPSConnection("cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com") headers = { # Same header fields sent by “urllib.request” "Accept-Encoding": "identity", "Host": "cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com", "User-Agent": "Python-urllib/3.6", "Connection": "close", } conn.request("GET", "/json/applets.json", headers=headers) resp = conn.getresponse() print(resp.msg) data = resp.read() Try removing the “Connection: close” field from the request. Occasionally this triggers bad server behaviour (see Issue 12849); maybe your server or proxy is affected. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter stage: -> test needed type: -> behavior versions: +Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34357> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
