Bluetooth Problem

[khashayarbayati]

I'm trying to do some Bluetooth programming with a Raspberry PI, but I have a problem. I want to use 'get_available_port' method, when I run the .py code, an AttributeError accrues, that it says " 'module' object has no attribute 'get_available_port ". I would be very thankful if someone could help me!

Post your code and full error message please.

That error can often arise when you give your script the same name as a python module that you're trying to import. i.e. if your script has the line:

Code: Select all

import bluetooth

don't call your script bluetooth.py

here is my code:
import bluetooth

server_sock=bluetooth.BluetoothSocket( bluetooth.RFCOMM )

port = bluetooth.get_available_port( bluetooth.RFCOMM )
server_sock.bind(("",port))
server_sock.listen(1)
print "listening on port %d" % port

uuid = "1e0ca4ea-299d-4335-93eb-27fcfe7fa848"
bluetooth.advertise_service( server_sock, "FooBar Service", uuid )

client_sock,address = server_sock.accept()
print "Accepted connection from ",address

data = client_sock.recv(1024)
print "received [%s]" % data

client_sock.close()
server_sock.close()

#and this is my error
'module' object has no attribute 'get_available_port'

thank u for replying

Please use code tags when pasting python code.

Also paste the full error message, it usually gives you a line number, file name details as well.

Looking at the PyBluez documentation (I assume this is the module you're using) it says this:

get_available_port(protocol)

deprecated. bind to port zero instead.

So maybe try commenting out your line and just setting port to zero.
