Catching HTTPerror in python3 from stravalib function

Question

My code (for the relevant part) is as follows

myactivities = []

from urllib.error import HTTPError

for activity in client.get_activities(after = activities_from, before=activities_to):
   print(activity)
   print(activity.id, activity.start_date)
   try:
       temp = client.get_activity_streams(activity.id, types=types)
   except urllib.error.HTTPError:
       print("HTTPError")
   myactivities.append(temp)

The error print I get is this:

HTTPError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-29-fc30cef1e4f3> in <module>()
      8     try:
----> 9         temp = client.get_activity_streams(activity.id, types=types)
     10     except urllib.error.HTTPError:

HTTPError: 404 Client Error: Not Found [Record Not Found: []]

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

NameError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-29-fc30cef1e4f3> in <module>()
      8     try:
      9         temp = client.get_activity_streams(activity.id, types=types)
---> 10     except urllib.error.HTTPError:
     11         print("HTTPError")
     12     myactivities.append(temp)

NameError: name 'urllib' is not defined

How can I catch that HTTPError succesfully? I tried all the suggestions in catch specific HTTP error in python but none helped.

Try

myactivities = []

from urllib.error import HTTPError

for activity in client.get_activities(after = activities_from, before=activities_to):
   print(activity)
   print(activity.id, activity.start_date)
   try:
       temp = client.get_activity_streams(activity.id, types=types)
   except HTTPError:
       print("HTTPError")
   myactivities.append(temp)

You already imported HTTPError, you have to use directly.

Your code shows error.

NameError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-29-fc30cef1e4f3> in <module>()
      8     try:
      9         temp = client.get_activity_streams(activity.id, types=types)
---> 10     except urllib.error.HTTPError:
     11         print("HTTPError")
     12     myactivities.append(temp)

NameError: name 'urllib' is not defined

Which gives error because urllib is not accessible. You imported HTTPError from that.
