ubuntuone-control-panel-backend crashed with ValueError in __init__(): cannot convert float NaN to integer

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The Traceback lists the operation on ct which is previously assigned a value of time.time(), i.e. current time.
It looks like time.time() returns something weird.

Could those who are affected by this bug please run the following ccmmand in the terminal and paste the output:

python -c 'import time; ct = time.time(); print "%r" % ct; print long(ct)'

This is what I see when I run this command

1323786350.446741
1323786350

~$ python -c 'import time; ct = time.time(); print "%r" % ct; print long(ct)'
1324035393.989875
1324035393

I also have this problem and have sent in bug report
 When I run the suggested line I see the following:

python -c 'import time; ct = time.time(); print "%r" % ct; print long(ct)'
1325703726.59995
1325703726

Good luck with resolving!

(from RT ticket #9908)
python -c 'import time; ct = time.time(); print "%r" % ct; print long(ct)'
1326742422.608749
1326742422

Thank you all for the data, but as I can see, the conversion is done properly and time() returns real time, not None.
Another take on the diagnosing - http://paste.ubuntu.com/810932/ please run it and report whether the script resulted in an error message to the terminal.

I haven't got any error.

Hello,

If you are still experiencing this error on oneiric, please try installing the package with workaround from
http://people.canonical.com/~roman.yepishev/lp844435/python-ubuntuone-control-panel_2.0.0-0ubuntu1.1~lp844435_all.deb

The only change there is that it tries to check that time() returns a valid value before going further to logger after the call to web client. The patch is attached.

I've created a Python issue corresponding to this. time.time() should not return None or NaN (in my opinion) but should throw an exception if it can't get a meaningful value:
