Im trying to connect to a SOAP/WSDL server through my Python script:
# based on the tutorial:
# http://www.diveintopython.net/soap_web_services/
import pprint
from SOAPpy import WSDL
WSDLFILE = "https://api.comscore.com/KeyMeasures.asmx?WSDL"
proxy = WSDL.Proxy(WSDLFILE)
proxy.soapserver.config.dumpSOAPIn=1
proxy.soapserver.config.dumpSOAPOut=1
When I run this script I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/XX/PycharmProjects/Test_Proj/Comscore_connector.py", line 9, in <module>
proxy = WSDL.Proxy(WSDLFILE)

Ive looked a the following links for SOAP examples: http://users.skynet.be/pascalbotte/rcx-ws-doc/python.htm
http://code.activestate.com/recipes/502259-calling-a-web-service-using-soappy/
However, there isn't much I could find elsewhere....
Would really appreciate any advice to point me in the right direction.
