Question

This issue’s story started here: Cannot make memory view because object does not have the buffer interface

I’m using Django 1.3.1 and Python 2.7. Now the new error says: TypeError: buffer object expected, and it points to gevent/socket.py

Is there any bug in some other library? Here’s the traceback Django gave me:

Answer 1

Couldn’t find the problem exactly, but I used python requests instead of urllib2 and the problem disappeared.

I consider it solved.
