Edit, it looks like rpc is not running correctly or the script/caller does not have the correct permissions to access the proxy url

Code:

>>> dir(access._get_response())
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bitcoinrpc/authproxy.py", line 163, in _get_response
   http_response = self.__conn.getresponse()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/httplib.py", line 1018, in getresponse
   raise ResponseNotReady()
httplib.ResponseNotReady

Hypothesis is correct:

Code:

root@fullnode:/# curl http://****:****@127.0.0.1:8332
"http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">

Error

401 Unauthorized.

Need some help with this guys.
