Just a guess. Do you have some proxy setting on this machine with https url?

I do not think I have proxy on my machine.

HI,

I searched google for "urlopen error unknown url type: https" which seems to bring some useful pointers. You may give it a try.

After looking at the code I see that there may be an error at line 318.
Tracing through execution shows that the code returns a URL similar to jibberish. Without looking too deep into it, I'd say that the Regular Expression they used was incorrect or the urllib.unquote() does not do what they expect it to do.

All is ok until I get an error message which ends with “Error: expected string without null bytes”. I renewed the operation, same error message.
In addition I do not see, during the connection, any file created. Is this normal?
Thank you.
