Im trying to use the exceptionlist that is mentioned in the docs on the website to stop my program from erroring out if there is a duplicate value entered in the config file. However, when i try to do from configobj import exceptionlist like the website says to do, i get the following: >>> from configobj import exceptionlist Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: cannot import name exceptionlist can anyone help me? thanks. David. |

Apparently i was looking at the documentation for an older version of configobj. http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/configobj3.html#exceptions My apologies. However, I still need a way to prevent configobj from stopping when it finds a duplicate key word entry. The link you posted says that the default for raise_errors is False and that parsing should continue. However for my program it stops parsing and the program exits. I did find that i can define the following in my program and it works for me: def _handle_error(self, text, ErrorClass, infile, cur_index): ##the next two lines i added to stop duplicate ##entries from causing problems if ErrorClass ==configobj.DuplicateError: return ##this is the end of the changes i made. line = infile[cur_index] cur_index += 1 message = text % cur_index error = ErrorClass(message, cur_index, line) if self.raise_errors: # raise the error - parsing stops here raise error # store the error # reraise when parsing has finished self._errors.append(error) configobj.ConfigObj._handle_error=_handle_error This works but im not sure that this is "good coding" practice. The following is the problem im am having. >>>x=configobj.ConfigObj("conf") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/configobj.py", line 1272, in __init__ self._load(infile, configspec) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/configobj.py", line 1355, in _load raise error configobj.DuplicateError: Duplicate keyword name at line 3. >>> the conf file looks like this: [conf] value1= workgroup value1=workgroup2 Any pointers would be appreciated.

Therefore instead of your code you could use: try: config = ConfigObj(filename) except ConfigObjError, e: config = e.config This ignores the error and uses whatever ConfigObj managed to find.

Thanks, that will work for me. For future reference is replacing a function like i mentioned previously a bad practice? (Assuming i cant find the proper way to do it like you showed me or there is not one available.) Thanks so much for your assistance.
