Python error integer is required

Question

I'm trying to stress test my EC2 Micro instance using Python.

I'm getting an error which seems self-explanatory but thats not the case:

Error: an integer is required

stress_test function:

try:
    bytes = random._urandom(512)
    s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    s.connect((self.host, int(self.port)))
    s.setblocking(0)
    s.sendto(bytes, (self.host, self.port))
except Exception, e:
    print(str(e))

main function:

  while True:
    if threading.activeCount() < thread_limit:
        stress_test(host_ip, host_port).start()

The error is on this line: s.sendto(bytes, (self.host, self.port))

However, If I try converting it to init I would of course get an invalid literal for int() with base 10 error.

I have also tried s.sendto(bytes(512), (self.host, self.port)) but then I get 'str' object is not callable error.

What I'm I doing wrong?

self.port needs to be an integer; use int(self.port) in the sendto line.
