Stripe is still not working on google app engine development server about stripe-python HOT 7 CLOSED

I just wrote a quick test case and ensured that the entire block around line 257 is not executed when I set stripe.verify_ssl_certs = False.

Based on the file path in the stacktrace, it looks like you're including the stripe-python source code directly inside your app. Have you tried using virtualenv + pip instead?

from stripe-python.

For google app engine, stripe is installed into the server/lib directory using the -t (target) directive of pip. The development server (or production) adds the server/lib path on startup.

I have created a test App Engine app. @jagooding could you run this and see if it works and if not post the stack trace from the logs: https://github.com/temp-repos/stripe-test

@danielchatfield I ran yours at it worked just fine.

I hadn't had a chance to try the 1.16.0 release with my app yet. I just ran it and everything works fine. Which is great news for me. However, just for curiosity's sake I went back and forced your test app to 1.15.1 and it still runs just fine, however when I force mine to 1.15.1 it breaks.

I don't know what is going on with that.

What is the difference between 1.15.1 and 1.16.0 ?

from stripe-python.

The only difference is to add support for cancelling transfers and fix up a test (both completely unrelated to this).

Without seeing your code I wouldn't be able to give any further advice on that.

I picked through the diff -- I can't see any relevant differences between those versions either. At this point it sounds like some kind of weird state on your system that's fixed by bumping to 1.16.0. Closing for now but reopen if you're still seeing problems on the latest version.

I have just had an idea of what might be causing this.

pip has a bug (they will probably claim it is a feature though) where if you run pip install with a target (like you do with appengine) it messes stuff up if the lib it is trying to install is already installed (it puts the files in a folder nested within the existing folder).

Make sure that you delete the contents of your lib folder every time you run pip install.
