need help with a multiloop error

[Brian]

I'm trying to run a python program with a multiloop and I am getting
this error message. I was wondering if anyone could tell from this
message what I'm doing wrong or where I've made a mistake. Let me
know if you need some of the code for this to make more sense. Thanks
a lot.

What is str2bool? Having the code would definitely help!

Here is a little more of the code? Does this help at all?

try:
b = str2bool(s)
return b
except ValueError, e:
# s is not a boolean value, try eval(s):
try:
b = eval(s, globals, locals)
return b
except Exception, e:
if debug:
print

Not much. MRAB asked what is str2bool. Instead of answering the
question, you have supplied some code which is calling str2bool (and
doing interesting things if it fails).

You talk about a "multiloop" as though it's a well-known concept
("running a Python program with a multiloop") ... it might be in
industrial process automation but not in Python. *If* you believe that
whether your program has a "multiloop" or not is relevant to the
exception that you are getting, you had better explain what a
"multiloop" is.

That is a very interesting traceback output. How does the "http://"
get in there???

I can only assume that 's' is meant to be a string representing a
Boolean value (eg "True"), but it's actually a float (or a float as a
string, ie "0.0"?), so a TypeError is being raised, but the code is
catching only ValueError.

exception that you are getting, you had better explain what a
"multiloop" is.

I'd probably take it to mean a nested loop...
