Twisted and starpy error (python)

Question

Hi

I'm using this:

from twisted.web.client import getPage
df = getPage(url) # there is some url

I'm getting the following error. Please can anyone guide me on this

ERROR:twsited:Unhandled error in Deferred:
ERROR:twsited:Unhandled Error
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/starpy/manager.py", line 123, in lineReceived

    callback( message )

  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 328, in _runCallbacks
    self.result = callback(self.result, *args, **kw)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/starpy/manager.py", line 298, in errorUnlessResponse
    raise error.AMICommandFailure( message )
starpy.error.AMICommandFailure: {'message': 'Channel not specified', 'response': 'Error', 'actionid': 'askme-158811948-5'}

I'm not sure this error is due to getPage() method because even when i've commented this it still give me the same error. Can anyone help. I can't figure out the reason for the error and where it is generated

Answer 1

The code posted is not complete. The error is not due to getPage. From the stack trace clues, this uses AMIProtocol (line receiver) . I guess some where you have to specify your protocol channel in AMIProtocol

setVar(self, channel, variable, value) in star.py.

This is not a twisted issue.
