I am not having much success trying to catch an exception from ZClient.
From the following code
<ol> <dtml-in locs> <li>&dtml-loc_name; <try> <dtml-var "WebClient(loc)"> <dtml-if "WebClient(loc)"> (ok) </dtml-if> <except> (failed) </try> </li> </dtml-in> </ol> I get the following error Error type: bci.NotAvailable Error value: (10060, 'winsock error') (File: http://135.9.1.4/cgi-bin/provsn/DenverGetFile.py Line: []) None None for None <!-- Traceback (innermost last): File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 202, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 165, in publish File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: testLocations) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: testLocations) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\OFS\DTMLMethod.py, line 145, in __call__ (Object: testLocations) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_String.py, line 502, in __call__ (Object: testLocations) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_In.py, line 691, in renderwob (Object: locs) File C:\PROGRA~1\PROVIS~2\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_Util.py, line 335, in eval (Object: WebClient(loc)) (Info: loc) File <string>, line 0, in ?
