getting data from php script using python

Question

I'm trying to get data from php script using a my python script:

#!/usr/bin/python

import urllib
import urllib2

url = 'https://example.com/example.php'
data = urllib.urlencode({'login' : 'mylogin', 'pwd' : 'mypass', 'data' : 'mydata'})
req = urllib2.Request(url, data)
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
d = response.read()
print d

doesn't run with error:

ERROR=1704

php script accepts:

url: https://example.com/example.php?login=xxxxxxx&pwd=xxxxxxx&t=3

Answer 1

Isn't it because it is https, as described in the most voted response here: python ignore certicate validation urllib2
