content-length error

gvhees
Explorer

Hi,
How long can a url be?

I get the following error:
command="importutil", 'content-length' Usage : importutil [config=] [format=]

My url is 79 characters.

Or is it the response? It is a multiline XML document that is returned.

I am seeing similar error

command="importutil", 'content-length' Usage : importutil [config=] [format=] Example : importutil http http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/data/PAYEMS.txt

In http.py i can see that program tries to find length of message.
#Determine the content length.
contentlen = message.headers['Content-Length']

BUt no clue if this is URL or returned file..
