TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'timeout'

[Jason Wheatley]

Hi everyone,

My Twitter and FTP uploads seemed to have stopped. The log entry and my ini file are below.

Things have been fine until recently. Possibly happened after I updated pywws??? I did re-process all the data after the update.

Any advice on how to sort the problem would be most welcome.

Cheers,

Jason

Try updating python-twitter. I can't remember when its 'timeout' option
was introduced, but it's a while ago.

Thanks Jim. That seems to have fixed it.
