urllib2 - Python upload fails (only half of the file uploaded) -

i have python uploader function fails because uploads part of file (tested binaries , text files).

def upload_u(logger, encoded_credentials, local_file_path, remote_path):   logger.info("uploading %s %s...", local_file_path, remote_path)     url = "https://my-artifactory-repo-site.org/artifactory/my-artifactory-repository/%s" % remote_path     authentication_header = "basic %s" % encoded_credentials      logger.info("calling %s", url)     f = open(local_file_path, read_file_as_binary)     request = urllib2.request(url, data=f.read())     f.close()     request.get_method = lambda: put_request     request.add_header(authorization_header_key, authentication_header)     request.add_header('content-length', os.path.getsize(local_file_path))     request.add_header('content-type', 'application/octet-stream')     print request.headers      response = none     try:         response = urllib2.urlopen(request)         print response.read()         response.close()         logger.info("upload finished. (status code: http %d)", response.getcode())     except urllib2.urlerror, e:         if e.code not in ok_status_codes:             logger.error("upload failed.\nstatus code: http %d\nreason: %s", e.code, "todo")             raise uploadererror("upload failed status code %d" % e.code)         else:             logger.info("upload finished. (status code: http %d)", e.code) 

this urllib2, have tried urllib , httplib. works requests not use library because have use built in one.

i have tried to:

• open file not in binary mode

• pass file-like object instead of content

unless read_file_as_binary, put_request, authorization_header_key have unusual values; code should work , issue elsewhere.

for debugging, try code can upload large files not fit in memory:

#!/usr/bin/env python import mmap import sys contextlib import closing urllib2 import request, urlopen  url, file_to_upload = sys.argv[1:3] credentials = 'dxnlcjpwyxnzd29yza=='  open(file_to_upload,'rb') file:     closing(mmap.mmap(file.fileno(), 0, access=mmap.access_read)) mm:         request = request(url, mm)         request.get_method = lambda: "put"         request.add_header("authorization", "basic " + credentials)         request.add_header("content-type", "application/octet-stream")         # content-length set automatically         closing(urlopen(request)) response:             print(response.info()) 

if uploads half of file problem not in client python code.
