Django and Suds : 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'str' in suds

Question

I have a little problem using Suds in Django (1.3, python 2.7).

When I retrieve data using suds in a script, it works ; but if I put the ** exactyle same** code in a django view, I get the error :

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'str' in suds

My code is simple :

client = Client(WSDL_URL, location=LOCATION_URL, cache=None)
client.service.getRooms({'type':'AVAILABLE'})

And the complete traceback :

    client.service.getRooms({'type':'AVAILABLE'})

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'str'

I don't know why I get this error using Django.

I thinks it's the same problem that this person : AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'str' in suds

So if anyone has an idea,

thanks.

The bug is in suds but is normally silent. However the bug is exposed when using django-debug-toolbar, as the logging panel shows all the messages that have been logged.

I've created a patched version of suds that fixes this problem: https://github.com/bradleyayers/suds-htj

Your error is here:

s = '%s [%s] %s: %s' % (dt, record.name, record.levelname, record.getMessage())

One of these variables is None, my initial suspect is dt.
