TCP server syntax error

[wabbit]

I'm trying to create a tcp server on python. Does anyone know why I'm receiving this syntax error despite defining 'server' earlier in the code. Is it something to do with indentations??

I'd like to help you, but I don't use imaging software to write my code, and as such, the attached file is about as much use as a windmill on the moon, for me.

If you'd like to post your code 'as code', then maybe you'll get some help.

As advised by @rob101, post the code as text, using proper BBCode tags. Posting it as image is never a good idea. That said, looking at your image - you need to familiarise yourself with the concept of scope, which is fundamental in programming. The name server is in local scope, i.e. available only inside the main() function. Probably your intention was to have the while loop inside the main() function? That brings us to next - why do you write in python interactive interpreter. That way you loose your code once the session ends. Write the code as text file with .py extension (i.e. a python module)

Also NameError and SyntaxError are two completely different errors in python.
