Sockets and xml problem

[kaklis at gmail.com]

Hi in the following code

class MyClientHandler(SocketServer.BaseRequestHandler):
    def handle(self):
        print self.client_address, now( )
        time.sleep(5)
        while True:
            xmltxt = self.request.recv(1024)    <--is this ok -
enough?
            if not xmltxt: break

            doc = minidom.parseString(data)
     <--- it also fails for parse(data)
            rootNode = doc.documentElement

            level = 0

            walk(rootNode, outFile, level)
      <---just a function to print the xml
            self.request.send('Echo=>%s at %s' % (data, now( )))
            rootNode = doc.documentElement
            level = 0
            walk(rootNode, outFile, level)
            self.request.send('Echo=>%s at %s' % (data, now( )))
        self.request.close( )

# make a threaded server, listen/handle clients forever
myaddr = (myHost, myPort)
server = SocketServer.ThreadingTCPServer(myaddr, MyClientHandler)
server.serve_forever( )


I want to send XML messages from my client. The server sends back the
XML it receives but
the parser exits with error codes.
What am i doing wrong.

Thanks in advance
