"Tuple indices must be integers" on Windows about scp.py HOT 12 CLOSED

Looks like you passed a string for the 'recursive' parameter of put(). Don't do that, pass either True (not "True") of False.

from scp.py.

d'oh. thanks.

from scp.py.

different error after correcting that:

this setup worked fine before trying to use the recursive option, FWIW.

Hard to tell from the code you didn't paste... what are the arguments?

from scp.py.

Sorry, same as the above example.

from scp.py.

You didn't give the arguments above, what are bag_dir_parent and remote_path?

from scp.py.

bag_dir_parent
'C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpxniltb'
remote_path
'~/deposit_here/324-444'

from scp.py.

I can't seem to duplicate on OSX, so this is probably a Windows issue...

from scp.py.

I'm gonna take a guess here and assume that you passed the wrong type, again, for the username or password. But really, I'm not gonna help you again if you don't paste some code.

from scp.py.

It's literally the same thing from my first comment except with recursive=True.

bag_dir_parent
'C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpxniltb'
remote_path
'~/deposit_here/324-444'
scp.put(bag_dir_parent, remote_path, recursive="True")

Am I somehow being difficult?

from scp.py.

the username or password

I don't understand how you can fail to locate that.

from scp.py.

Oh, actually, you're right, those are probably QString :)

Sorry -- I got frustrated at you asking me for the same thing over again, and then didn't realize when you were actually raising something different. Closing this!
