I am getting the following error:
InvalidURLError: ApplicationError: 1
Checked my code, and logged some various things and the url’s causing this error to appear look pretty normal. They are being quoted through urllib.quote and visiting them through a browser results in a normal result.
The error is happening with many URL’s, not one. The URL points to an API service and is constructed within the app.
Btw,here’s a link to the google.appengine.api.urlfetch source code: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/source/browse/trunk/python/google/appengine/api/urlfetch.py?r=56.
The docstrings say that the error should happen when: “InvalidURLError if the url was invalid.” and “If the URL is an empty string or obviously invalid, we throw an urlfetch.InvalidURLError”
Just to make it simple for those who would like to test this:

Here’s the traceback:

I wonder if it’s something very simple that I’m missing from all of this. Would appreciate your comments and ideas. Thanks!
Your URL is too long, there is a limit on the length of URLs.
