socket.error: [Errno 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access
- by Sean Ochoa
Hello all. I'm trying to create a custom TCP stack using Python 2.6.5 on Windows 7 to serve valid http page requests on port 80 locally. But, I've run into a snag with what seems like Windows 7 tightened up security. This code worked on Vista.
Here's my sample code:
import SocketServer
class MyTCPHandler(SocketServer.BaseRequestHandler):
def handle(self):
headerText = """HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date: Fri, 31 Dec 1999 23:59:59 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 1354"""
bodyText = "<html><body>some page</body></html>"
self.request.send(headerText + "\n" + bodyText)
if __name__ == "__main__":
HOST, PORT = "localhost", 80
server = SocketServer.TCPServer((HOST, PORT), MyTCPHandler)
server.serve_forever()
C:\pythonpython TestServer.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "TestServer.py", line 19, in
server = SocketServer.TCPServer((HOST, PORT),
MyTCPHandler) File
"C:\Python26\lib\SocketServer.py",
line 400, in init
self.server_bind() File "C:\Python26\lib\SocketServer.py",
line 411, in server_bind
self.socket.bind(self.server_address)
File "", line 1, in bind
socket.error: [Errno 10013] An attempt
was made to access a socket in a way
forbidden by its access permissions
How exactly do I get this to work on Windows 7?
