Thank you in advance for any help provided.
I am on ubuntu 12.10 with python 2.7 installed. I wrote a simple script based on other posts to test http and https connections:
import urllib2, urllib def set_proxy(): proxy = urllib2.ProxyHandler({'http': 'http://<proxyhost>:<proxyport>'}) opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy, urllib2.HTTPHandler) urllib2.install_opener(opener) def http_call(): conn = urllib2.urlopen('http://www.whatismyip.com/') return conn.read() def https_call(): conn = urllib2.urlopen('https://chase.com/') return conn.read() set_proxy() webpage = open('webpage.html', 'w') return_str = https_call() webpage.write(return_str) webpage.close() print ("check for output in webpage.html") The test with http works fine, but with https produces the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 18, in <module> return_str = https_call() File "test.py", line 13, in https_call conn = urllib2.urlopen('https://chase.com/') File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 127, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data, timeout) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 401, in open response = self._open(req, data) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 419, in _open '_open', req) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 379, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1219, in https_open return self.do_open(httplib.HTTPSConnection, req) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1181, in do_open raise URLError(err) urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 110] Connection timed out> Here is my setup:
root@sc11137376:/usr/local/pythonbrew# lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 Codename: quantal root@sc11137376:/usr/local/pythonbrew# python --version Python 2.7.3 root@sc11137376:/usr/local/pythonbrew# openssl version OpenSSL 1.0.1c 10 May 2012 I saw in a similar, older post suggestions to rebuild python from source with openssl installed. I am hoping there is a different solution to my problem, since this is much newer ubuntu/python version and openssl is already on the system.
Any pointers appreciated.
Note: Setting HTTPS_PROXY in the environment changed the error message to the following (from error number 110 to 113):
urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 113] No route to host> Btw, the following also fails:
root@sc11137376:/usr/local/pythonbrew# openssl s_client -connect encrypted.google.com:443 connect: No route to host connect:errno=113 Not sure if there is anything I can do to resolve this problem.
