Executing sparql query from python to virtuoso server in linux?

I am having problem for running the following program (sparql_test.py). I am running it from Linux machine. I am installing Virtuoso server in the same Linux machine. In the Linux server, I don't have sudo permission nor browser access. But, I can execute SPARQL query from isql prompt (SQL>) successfully.

Program: sparql_test.py

from SPARQLWrapper import SPARQLWrapper, JSON
sparql = SPARQLWrapper("http://localhost:8890/sparql")
sparql.setQuery("select ?s where { ?s a <http://ehrofip.com/data/Admissions>.} limit  10")
sparql.setReturnFormat(JSON)
result = sparql.query().convert()
for res in result["results"]["bindings"]:
    print(res)

I got the following error:

[suresh@deodar complex2vec]$ python sparql_test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "sparql1.py", line 14, in "<module>"
  result = sparql.query().convert()
File "/home/suresh/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/SPARQLWrapper/Wrapper.py", line 687, in query
  return QueryResult(self._query())
File "/home/suresh/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/SPARQLWrapper/Wrapper.py", line 667, in _query
  raise e
urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 502: Bad Gateway

However, the above program run smoothly in my own laptop. What might be the problem? Is this issue of connection?

Thank you

Best,

Suresh

Solution

I do not believe this error is raised by Virtuoso. I believe it is raised by SPARQLWrapper.

It looks like there's something between the outside world (which includes the Linux machine itself) and the Virtuoso listener on port 8890. The "Bad Gateway" suggests there may be two things -- a reverse proxy, and a firewall.

Port 8890 (set as [HttpServer]:Listen in the INI file) must be open to communications, direct or proxied, for SPARQL access to work.

iSQL talks to port 1111 (set as [Parameters]:Listen in the INI file), which apparently doesn't have a similar block/proxy.
