verify server_context is configured correctly rqi  2018-03-26 12:33

I tried to install Python API for LabKey Server on my windows machine to remotely manage data on linux machine.
What I did:
1 pip install labkey
2 add labkey to my project;
3 Set Up a netrc File on the home directory
machine labkey.*****.org
login &&@*****.org
password *****

My code:
server_context = create_server_context(server, project, context_path, use_ssl=False)
server=labkey.*****.org:80
project="apple\ pear" (Note: on my server, the project name has a space so I used back slash)
context_path=labkey

But I always got error said: server_context = create_server_context(server, project, context_path, use_ssl=False)

Please help! Thanks

Hello,

So you're running the LabKey Python API from your Windows computer?

When you had setup the netrc file, did you make sure the file was named as "_netrc" with the underscore in-front of it?

Also, you shouldn't need to have a backslash to accommodate the space. Wrapping it in single quotes should be sufficient.

Can you also send us the full error you're seeing? There should be a traceback showing on the screen after the python script is ran.

Regards,

Jon
