I have a simple bit of code that accesses an XMLRPC server in this case to delete some user accounts.

def __init__(self, host, token):
    url = host + '/webservice/xmlrpc/server.php?wstoken=' + token
    self.proxy = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(url)

def core_user_delete_users(self, id):
    ids = [id]
    self.proxy.core_user_delete_users(ids)
    return

Now this actually works fine. The server correctly deletes the users. However, it (also) correctly returns nothing at all to the client. This (I am assuming anyway) causes an error...

Error:

As it basically works, I am assuming that this is complaining about no response being sent.

Is this the case and/or is there some way around it?
