I have this piece of code that tries to get the page content from a given url.
import httplib2
start_url = "https://www.somesite.com"
http = httplib2.Http(disable_ssl_certificate_validation=True)
status, response = http.request(start_url)
However, when I run it, I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Documents and Settings\DD\Desktop\crawler.py", line 15, in <module>
resp, content = h.request(start_url, "GET") File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\httplib2-0.9-py2.7.egg\httplib2\__init__.py", line 1593, in request

As you may have seen, I tried to disable the ssl validation but with no succsess. Any Help? Thanks!
SSL3_GET_RECORD:decryption failed or bad record mac
This has nothing to do with SSL validation. It might be that the server simply does not talk SSL or that there are other SSL related problems, but validation is not one of them at this stage of communication.
If you provide the real URL or a full packet capture (file or at cloudshark.org) one might analyze the information in more detail.
