Python xmlrpclib parameters passing

Question

I want to pass some data using Python RPC. I got the result correctly but also got an error.

xmlrpclib.Fault: :invalid literal for float(): 127.0.0.1">.

I did not change anything just got the error suddenly. It looks like the parameter issue when I trying pass the data using PRC api. But I still did not get it.

enter image description here

def election_stop():
    time.sleep(5)
    while 1:
        global candidate_ids,candidate_adds,candidate_ports,lessthan
        if take_over==True and lessthan<=devices_attached:
        index_=candidate_ids.index(max(candidate_ids))
        add_s=candidate_adds[index_]
        port_s=candidate_ports[index_]
        print candidate_adds
        print "[Gateway]"+str(add_s)+str(port_s)+"win"
    try:
        proxy = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://"+add_s+":"+str(port_s)+"/")
        ret = proxy.elec_recv("WIN",str(port_s),str(add_s),"you win pls takeover")
        #ret = proxy.elec_recv("LEADER",candidate_ports[0:lessthan],candidate_adds[0:lessthan],candidate_ids[0:lessthan])
        ret = proxy.elec_recv("LEADER",candidate_ports[0:lessthan],candidate_adds[0:lessthan],candidate_ids[0:lessthan])
        break
    except socket_error,exceptions.ValueError:
        print socket_error
        continue
    return "stop"

Can you post you code with the `traceback` instead of the image? — styvane, Apr 09 '15 at 14:02
sorry sure. I just added. I returned (string,array,array,array) — user2263305, Apr 09 '15 at 14:25

You're passing the argument "127.0.0.1" to a function on the server that is expecting an argument of type float.

Actually not. I do not suppose to use float. I thought everything should be string – user2263305 Apr 10 '15 at 01:06
