Python Socket with Multiprocessing and Pickle issue

I am having a Pickle issue with SSL client to server communication using multiprocessing.
I have an SSL client that connects to the server:

The server accepts the connection with SSL then waits for a message. It investigates the message command, executes the respective function and returns the data from the database as a response (checkvalidsite in this example).
All good so far (as far as I can tell).
I also have the main program that calls the SSLClient and connects.
Main program
remoteclient = SSLclient()
successfulconnection = remoteclient.connect()
siteactive = remoteclient.checkvalidsite()
So far all is well. However I also have the main program reading in frames from multiple cameras. Can be 20 cameras for example. In order to do this I created multiprocessing to deal with the camera load. Each camera or two cameras per, are assigned to a processor (depending on the number of cores in the machine).
(code below has been stripped out to simplify reading)
x = range(3, 6)
for n in x:
processes = multiprocessing.Process(target=activateMainProgram, args=(queue1, queue2, queue3, queue4, remoteclient, ))
processes.start()
When I try pass the remoteclient (SSLClient) as an argument I get the error:
cannot pickle 'SSLContext' object
I then (after reading online) added the code to the SSLClient:
def save_sslcontext(obj):
return obj.__class__, (obj.protocol,)
copyreg.pickle(ssl.SSLContext, save_sslcontext)
but then I get the error:
cannot pickle 'SSLContext' object
There are 2 options I experimented with:
Trying to get the pickle working (which would be ideal) as the processes themselves each need to communicate with the server. So the processes need to call functions from the SSLClient file. But I cannot get over the pickle issue and can't find a solution online
I then placed the remoteclient = SSLClient code outside the main function. Hoping it would run first and then be accessible to the processes. This worked, however what I learnt was that when a process is called (as it does not share memory) it reprocesses the entire file. Meaning if I have 10 processes each with 2 cameras then I would have 10 connections to the server (1 per process). This means on the server side I would also have 10 threads running each connection. Though it works, it seems significantly inefficient.
Being a noob and self taught in Python I am not sure how to resolve the issue and after 3 days, I figured I would reach out for assistance. If I could get assistance with the pickle issue of the SSLClient then I will have one connection that is shared with all processes and 1 thread in the server to deal with them.
P.s. I have cobbled all of the code together myself and being new to Python if you see that I am totally going down the wrong, incorrect, non-professional track, feel free to yell.
Much appreciated.
Update:
If I change the SSLClient code to:
def save_sslcontext(obj):
return obj.__class__, (obj.protocol,)
copyreg.pickle(ssl.SSLContext, save_sslcontext)
Then I get the error:
[WinError 10038] An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket
Not sure what is better..

sockets cant upload file

I am tryin to develop a script that works on the client machine sending information to the server and uploading&downloading to/from client machine. However, when I try to upload a file, I see in my server machine that the file is sending the file but the client doesn't receive and shows no error. uploading code worked properly before I implemented into my main code. Sorry if there is misunderstanding in my explanation i am new at stackoverflow.

but didnt work when i tried to implement into my main code

Threaded socket doesn't transfer all data using sendall

I am currently running into an issue where the following code only reads the first 1028 bytes from a socket, and then hangs waiting for more even though the rest has been sent. I thought it could be the code causing the problem, but it only happens when I am receiving data from the client to the server (which is multi-threaded). When I run the code in reverse (server sending data to client) it runs without an issue.
This is what is currently failing:
The clients code:
with open(commands[1], "rb") as file:
data = file.read()
# Sends the length of the file to the server
serverSocket.sendall(str(len(data)).encode())
# Sends the data to the server
data = file.read(1024)
while data:
data = file.read(1024)
serverSocket.sendall(data)
Along with the server code:
# Gets the total length of the file
dataLen = int(clientsocket.recv(1024).decode())
totalData = ""
while len(totalData) < dataLen:
# Reads in and appends the data to the variable
data = clientsocket.recv(1024).decode()
totalData += data
What else have I tried?
The original code for the client was:
with open(commands[1], "rb") as file:
data = file.read()
# Sends the length of the file to the server
serverSocket.sendall(str(len(data)).encode())
# Sends the data to the server
serverSocket.sendall(data)
Which I changed because I thought there may be an issue with the recv not getting all of the packets from the client, but the client believes that everything was sent.

Control TCP server in Python

I use unittests to check correctness of TCP client communication, so I need some TCP server that I can control it and that it sends to client (and when).
A simple test should look like:
server = Server("localhost", 5555)
server.start()
client.connect()
self.assertTrue("login_message" in server.received_data)
server.send_to_client(reject_messages)
self.assertTrue("login_again" in server.received_data)
time.sleep(10)
self.assertTrue("login_again_and_again" in server.newest_received_data)
server.stop()
self.assertTrue("login failed" in client.logs)
I need the full flow control, what could be used for implementing Server?
Now I try to use threaded SocketServer, but I don't have an access neither to data, nor to controlling it..

I don't know if anybody needs this, but anyway:
I used gevent server
from gevent import sleep, socket
from gevent.server import StreamServer
class Connection:
def __init__(self, host, port):
self.server = StreamServer((host, port), self.handle)
self.data = []
self.socks = []
self.pointer = 0
def handle(self, sock, address):
self.socks.append(sock)
while True:
line = sock.recv(1024)
if line:
self.data += [line]
else:
break
sock.close()
self.socks.remove(sock)
def send(self, msg):
if self.socks:
sock2send = self.socks[-1]
try:
sock2send.send(msg)
except IOError, e:
print "Can't send message '%s'! Exception:" % msg, e
else:
print "No sockets to send the message to"
def start(self):
self.server.start()
def serve_forever(self):
self.server.serve_forever()
def close(self):
self.server.stop()
for sock in self.socks:
sock.close()
def new_data(self):
newest = self.data[self.pointer:]
self.pointer = len(self.data)
return newest
And then unittest looks like this:
def testTCPClient(self):
j = lambda x: "".join(x)
server = Connection("", 5555)
server.start()
client.run()
sleep(3)
data = j(server.new_data())
self.assertTrue("login" in data)
sleep(2)
server.send("login approve")
sleep(2)
data = j(server.new_data())
self.assertTrue("after_login" in data)
server.send("logout")
sleep(2)
data = j(server.new_data())
self.assertTrue("received_logout" in data)
server.close()
self.assertTrue("disconnected" in client.logs)

Python Proxy isn't handling POST requests

I'm creating a simple Python proxy that logs all requests sent through it. For now, everything works except POST requests (I can't vote on StackOverflow questions).
I haven't defined an explicit POST function, but I am using the GET function instead.
Could anyone tell me where the problem is?
This is my code:
#!/usr/local/bin/python2
import BaseHTTPServer, select, socket, SocketServer, urlparse

The read-select on self.connection never returns, and if one manually reads from that object, no data is coming. It looks like you have to read from self.rfile.
Note that calling select on self.rfile doesn't return, but self.rfile.read() does work. That is probably because self.rfile is a Python file-like object, and the server process has already read the start of the POST body from the OS.
