UnknownApiNameOrVersion: name: calendar version: v3

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Problem can't be consistently reproduced. My application on Google App Engine 
takes a list of appointments and adds them to a calendar. If I use the exact 
same file it might cause this error one time, but not the next time. It doesn't 
happen on the first appointment either, but after a few, sometimes 3, sometimes 
18. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect all appointments to be inserted without errors.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Google Api Python Client v1.0

Please provide any additional information below.

UnknownApiNameOrVersion: name: calendar  version: v3

As far as I can see the error makes no sense, the api is calendar and the 
version is v3. The code that I used to create the request is a copy of the 
samples.

You may be hitting rate limiting for requests for the calendar discovery 
document. 
Try keeping a local copy of the discovery document and build the service object 
from that copy:

http://code.google.com/p/google-api-python-client/wiki/NonStandardDiscoveryDocum
ents#Local_Discovery_Docs

The discovery document for calendar v3 is here:

https://www.googleapis.com/discovery/v1/apis/calendar/v3/rest

Thanx for pointing me in that direction, I've changed my code accordingly and 
so far it's working, but is there any way for me to stress test that?

#Read local copy of api
f = file(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "rest"), "r")
discovery = f.read()
f.close()

# Get the authorized Http object created by the decorator.
        http = decorator.http()        

# Construct a service from the local documents
        service = build_from_document(discovery,
                                      base="https://www.googleapis.com/",
                                      http=http, developerKey='XXXXXXXXXXXX')

        # Make a list of calendars
        calendar_list = service.calendarList().list(minAccessRole="writer").execute()
