Calling Python Eve from an Flask application leads to weird errors

I've created an Eve API which is being called from an Flask Application using SSL protected traffic. The application itself should be working nevertheless an error occurs when Eve tries to handle the incoming requests. 

Eve==0.6.4
Flask==0.10.1



Traceback (most recent call last):

Solution

  • At least in this case it was in incompatibility between the libraries, no idea why. Upgrade Eve and Flask via pip (pip install --upgrade flask and pip install --upgrade eve) and it works again.
