Python Requests requests.exceptions.SSLError: [Errno 8] _ssl.c:504: EOF occurred in violation of protocol

Full error message
I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 with OpenSSL 1.0.1c, python 2.7.3, Requests 1.0.3 and 1.0.4 (tried both), and when attempting to connect to the website in the url variable with the following code.

def SendInitialRequest(xmlmessage, redirecturl):
    url = 'https://centineltest.cardinalcommerce.com/maps/txns.asp'

    payload = 'cmpi_msg=' + ET.tostring(xmlmessage)
    headers = {
        'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
    }
    r = requests.post(url, data=payload, headers=headers, verify=None)
    print r.text

It throws the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "clams/libs/centinel/thinclient.py", line 134, in SendInitialRequest

    raise SSLError(e)
requests.exceptions.SSLError: [Errno 8] _ssl.c:504: EOF occurred in violation of protocol

Attempting the connection with openssl returns the following:

$ openssl s_client -connect centineltest.cardinalcommerce.com:443
CONNECTED(00000003)
140019346777760:error:140790E5:SSL routines:SSL23_WRITE:ssl handshake failure:s23_lib.c:177:

If I force it to use tls1 it works (output truncated):

$ openssl s_client -tls1 -connect centineltest.cardinalcommerce.com:443
CONNECTED(00000003)

I've seen numerous bug reports for this; however, I've not found a way to get around it using the python requests library.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Reposting this here for others from the requests issue page: Requests' does not support doing this before version 1. Subsequent to version 1, you are expected to subclass the HTTPAdapter, like so: from requests.adapters import HTTPAdapter from requests.packages.urllib3.poolmanager import PoolManager import ssl class MyAdapter(HTTPAdapter): def init_poolmanager(self, connections, maxsize, block=False): self.poolmanager = PoolManager(num_pools=connections, maxsize=maxsize, block=block, ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1) When you've done that, you can do this: import requests s = requests.Session() s.mount('https://', MyAdapter()) Any request through that session object will then use TLSv1.
