Fwd: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTTPSHandler'

[Matt McCredie]

I built and installed python 2.5 from source and when I do this:

>
opener = urllib2.build_opener(SmartRedirectHandler(),
DefaultErrorHandler(), urllib2.HTTPSHandler())

I get this error.
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTTPSHandler'

What should I do?

You need `_ssl.pyd' for HTTPSHandler to work. I guess, try to figure
out why that wasn't built, then build it. I suppose I _might_ be able
to give a little more help, but you haven't mentioned what platform
you are using. Even then, I'm not an expert on building Python.
