Hi,
I'm developing an application that alters an image. It is written in pure python (no Django or other stuff). It doesn't even have a webpage. When I try to open an URL using urllib. I get the following exception:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 153, in urlopen
return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 461, in open
response = meth(req, response)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 571, in http_response
'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 499, in error
return self._call_chain(*args)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 433, in _call_chain
result = func(*args)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 579, in http_error_default
raise HTTPError(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
I ran the following code:
import urllib.request
urllib.request.urlopen('http://i.imgur.com/ssztN.jpg')
Is there a restriction regarding loading image URLs on Pythonanywhere? This code works fine on my machine.
