Summary: self.length shield exception in httplib
Initial Comment:
Under certain conditions (I'm trying to open a
Shoutcast stream), I wind up with the following
exception from httplib:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/devel/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line
442, in __bootstrap
self.run()
File "avalanche.py", line 86, in run
streamData = streamResponse.read(256)
File "/home/devel/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line
478, in read
self.length -= len(s)
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -=: 'str'
and 'int'
Normally, self.length has many shields of the form "if
self.length is None:"; however, self.length gets
initialize to _UNKNOWN which is the string "UNKNOWN"
rather than None. As such, all of the shields are useless.
Am I using a deprecated library or something? I'm
really surprised no one else has bumped into this.

Thanks for the report! This is fixed as of Lib/httplib.py
r1.95, r1.94.2.1.

I did bump into the same problem.
Apparently when I got HTTP/0.9 connection, self.length is
not initialized.
Inserting a line into l.362 at httplib.py (v2.4) seems to
solve this problem. I will also post a patch:
if self.version == 9:
self.chunked = 0
self.will_close = 1
self.msg = HTTPMessage(StringIO())
+ self.length = None
return
