'module' object has no attribute 'getaddrinfo'

I know that is another post with the same subject, but that one was
still not helping me. So can I start a new thread of discussion.

In my handler, I have the following couple of lines:

client = gdata.contacts.service.ContactsService()
feeds = client.GetContactsFeed()

and the following imports:

import wsgiref.handlers
import gdata.service

import gdata.urlfetch
# Use urlfetch instead of httplib
gdata.service.http_request_handler = gdata.urlfetch

import gdata.contacts
import gdata.contacts.service

from google.appengine.ext import webapp
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import template

but I am still getting the following errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'getaddrinfo'


Line 43 in .../my/handler.py is the line that says feeds =
client.GetContactsFeed()

I also saw the post http://code.google.com/p/hello-youtube/wiki/Codelab,
and /atom and /gdata in my application directory. What am I doing
wrong? It looks like httplib.py still is still the one in effect.
Please help. Thanks

There was a change in introduced in version 1.2.0 of the gdata-python-
client which requires use of a new function to swap out the HTTP
request mechanism.

gdata.alt.appengine.run_on_appengine(client)

Please see instructions here: http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/gdata.html
. Unfortunately this did break the old sample code in the code lab,
but this new design will better allow for new features in the future.

Happy coding,

Jeff
