Fetching the image works, but when i try to upload it i get the error "<em>TypeError: stat() argument 1 must be (encoded string without NULL bytes), not str</em>" </p> <p>The Code basically looks like this:</p> <pre><code>def getfile(url): result = urlfetch.fetch(url) if result.status_code == 200: return (result.content) logging.error ("[-] Error fetching URL: %s" % url) def uploadpicture(comment,pic): album_url = '/data/feed/api/user/%s/album/%s' % (username, album) fname = "image.jpg" entry = gd_client.InsertPhotoSimple(album_url, fname, comment, pic, content_type='image/jpeg') picurl = "http://brilliantleap.com/blog/frog.jpg" pic = getfile(picurl) comment = "Test" uploadpicture(comment, pic) </code></pre> <p>The full Stacktrace is:</p> <p>Traceback (most recent call last):</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/google/appengine/ext/webapp/<strong>init</strong>.py", line 507, in <strong>call</strong> handler.get(*groups)</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/app_picasaupload/main.py", line 124, in get uploadpicture(comment, pic)</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/app_picasaupload/main.py", line 104, in uploadpicture entry = gd_client.InsertPhotoSimple(album_url, fname, comment, pic, content_type='image/jpeg')</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/app_picasaupload/gdata/photos/service.py", line 469, in InsertPhotoSimple content_type)</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/app_picasaupload/gdata/photos/service.py", line 398, in InsertPhoto os.path.exists(filename_or_handle): # it's a file name</p> <p>File "/usr/lib/python2.5/posixpath.py", line 171, in exists st = os.stat(path)</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/google/appengine/tools/dev_appserver.py", line 1109, in <strong>call</strong> if not FakeFile.IsFileAccessible(path):</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/google/appengine/tools/dev_appserver.py", line 1018, in IsFileAccessible normcase=normcase)</p> <p>File "/home/birt/stuff/google/appengine/tools/dev_appserver.py", line 1036, in _IsFileAccessibleNoCache if os.path.isdir(logical_filename):</p> <p>File "/usr/lib/python2.5/posixpath.py", line 195, in isdir st = os.stat(path)</p> <p>TypeError: stat() argument 1 must be (encoded string without NULL bytes), not str</p> <p>Any Ideas ? :-)</p>

    2. COAre you perchance using Python 3? That's what the error message suggests. The appengine SDK specifically supports (and the production version too of course;-) Python 2.5, not later versions at this time.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
