[OT] Python Q: expected string, tuple found

[Lloyd Kvam]

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/httplib.py", line 924, in putheader
    str = '%s: %s' % (header, '\r\n\t'.join(values))
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected string, tuple found

I suspect the error is coming from .join(values)
join expects a sequence of strings.  I think it is grumbling that the
first item in values is really a tuple.


Going by the method name (putheader), I would guess that the request
contains a defective header.  However looking at the log and the code, I
do not see the problem...
