I m trying to write a small tool to upload Pictures from Google App Engine to Picasa. Fetching the image works, but when i try to upload it i get the error "TypeError: stat() argument 1 must be (encoded string without NULL bytes), not str"
The Code basically looks like this:
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)
The full Stacktrace is:

Any Ideas ? :-)
