Re: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'insort' - Python + Webdriver - Mac OSX

Hi,

I have no such issue, but

imho, looks like your python is corrupted. Error like "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'insort'" usually means that there is no such method in module.

But at my installation i can see in the beginning of urllib2.py the line as:

-------------------------

import bisect

------------------------- 

and in bisect.py (at the same location as urllib2.py) i can see:

-------------------------  

insort = insort_right   # backward compatibility

-------------------------

Could you check these files for lines above ?

But I can be wrong due i use windows and do not use chromedriver.

Any idea how to fix this?

Hi
I have both files urllib2.py and bisect.py.
bisect contains insort as well.

Thanks
