Re: [Configobj-develop] newbie error

[David H. <neg...@gm...>]

For starters, make sure you're actually referring to the config.ini
file that you think you are, and that it contains what you intend it
to contain.

The one you provided doesn't even parse correctly because it's got
'soc_source' listed as a keyword twice.  So the example code you have
doesn't even match the example file, since the following line would
throw an exception:

> config = ConfigObj('c:\temp\config.ini')

Which leads me to suspect that perhaps the config.ini file that you're
actually loading does NOT, in fact, have the following line in it:

> som_somserver = 1


Which would explain the KeyError.


cheers,
