get_deep_search_results() throws TypeError, both arguments are unicode

[ReddyKilowatt]

get_deep_search_results() is throwing a TypeError exception, when both arguments are unicode.
Could use some help with this.

thanks

Hi ReddyKilowatt,

Happy to help. Unfortunately, I'm traveling right now and don't have access to a machine.

I'll be back online at the beginning of May.

I'm using pyzillow 0.5.5, that I installed manually with pip, so I suspect it is the most recent.

This line is failing
if response.findall('message/code')[0].text is not '0':
raise ZillowError(int(response.findall('message/code')[0].text))
but I don't know enough about what repsonse.findall() is trying to do.

Hi

I'm going to be busy until tonight.
Will try to duplicate the problem again then reply with details. Thanks.
In case I forget, please ping me in about 9 hours or so

On this line in my code
zillow_data.get_deep_search_results(address, zip code)

The following exception is being raised

Do you have any idea what caused the exception I sent a few days ago?

I'm running version 0.5.5 with Python 3.5/Anaconda3 and am getting a similar error

It works when I test using the address ('1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW', '20500') but not for the specific zillow_id of the home I'm trying to pull for.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/....../zillowtest.py", line 19, in <module>
    updated_property_details_response = zillow_data.get_updated_property_details(zillow_id)
  File "C:\....\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pyzillow-0.5.5-py3.5.egg\pyzillow\pyzillow.py", line 43, in get_updated_property_details
    return self.get_data(url, params)
  File "C:\.....\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pyzillow-0.5.5-py3.5.egg\pyzillow\pyzillow.py", line 82, in get_data
    raise ZillowError(int(response.findall('message/code')[0].text))
pyzillow.pyzillowerrors.ZillowError: <exception str() failed>

Same problem for me. For example, when retrieving this property, I see same exception as RobMulla

107 Allenhurst Ave, 07753

[swysell]

Having the same issue where the zillow_data.get_deep_search_results is giving TypeError: str returned non-string (type dict) for some addresses. Has anyone found a workaround for this error?

[chandlerzuo]

I am having the same issue on Python 2.7.

Also having this issue on some addresses. Using Python 2.7
