Cannot import requests.packages.urllib3.util ‘Retry’

You might need a newer version of Requests. I just tried it with v2.5.1: from requests.packages.urllib3.util import Retry Seems to work. FYI: The latest version is v2.5.3, worth upgrading. Also if you have a reasonably recent version of urllib3 installed separately, this should also work: from urllib3.util import Retry Unfortunately we check the specific isinstance … Read more

What’s the meaning of pool_connections in requests.adapters.HTTPAdapter?

I wrote an article about this. pasted it here: Requests’ secret: pool_connections and pool_maxsize Requests is one of the, if not the most well-known Python third-party library for Python programmers.

How to retry urllib2.request when fails?

Here’s how you can use it: @retry(urllib2.URLError, tries=4, delay=3, backoff=2) def urlopen_with_retry(): return urllib2.urlopen(“http://example.com”) This will retry the function if URLError is raised.

Why do I constantly see “Resetting dropped connection” when uploading data to my database?

Requests uses Keep-Alive by default. Resetting dropped connection, from my understanding, means a connection that should be alive was dropped somehow.

See https://stackoverflow.com/a/25239947/2142577 for more details.

urllib3 connectionpool – Connection pool is full, discarding connection

No data is being lost! The connection is being discarded after the request is completed (because the pool is full, as mentioned). This means that this particular connection is not going to be re-used in the future.
