Python JSON Decoding With Asynchat Cannot Catch ValueError Exception - json

Question

I can't seem to catch an exception when using json.loads even though I specifically call it out. I largely see this when trying to stress my server with lots of client connection sending data very quickly. See my error below:
(I've replaced my IP address with X's in the error code)
EX: Unterminated string starting at: line 1 column 49 (char 48) Data:
'{"ap-hdop":0.55,"rtcmin":"38","ap-latdec":3.134,"a' error: uncaptured
python exception, closing channel
(:Unterminated string
starting at: line 1 column 49 (char 48)
[//faraday_server_handler.py|collect_incoming_data|34]
[/usr/lib/python2.7/json/init.py|loads|338]
[/usr/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py|decode|366]
[/usr/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py|raw_decode|382])
I understand this that the code fails because I simply miss a double quotes on the line:
'{"ap-hdop":0.55,"rtcmin":"38","ap-latdec":3.134,"a'
This line is usually a LOT longer so that "a.... was supposed to keep going and complete it's quotes.
Here's my relevant code:
def collect_incoming_data(self, data):
"""Read an incoming message from the client, place JSON message data into buffer"""
#self.logger.debug('collect_fing_data() -> (%d bytes)\n"""%s"""', len(data), data)
try:
loaded_data = json.loads(data)
except ValueError, ex:
self.handle_error()
type,value,traceback = sys.exc_info()
print type
#print "Collect Incoming Data: " . time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S",time.gmtime())
print "EX: ", ex
print "Data: ",repr(data)
Any ideas? I scoured the internet to see if I can find this issue, but I appear to be setting up to capture the exception which everyone else having this issue with loads seems to suggest to do.
EDIT 3/1/2016 - Evening
Commenting out my exception handle_error() let me see more of the error:
except ValueError, ex:
self.handle_error()
type,value,traceback = sys.exc_info()
print type
#print "Collect Incoming Data: " . time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S",time.gmtime())
print "EX: ", ex
print "Data: ",repr(data)
Below is my new error, I've commented out personal data. It's apparent that the issue I really have now is in-fact the unterminated string
EX: Unterminated string starting at:
line 1 column 49 (char 48) Data:
'{"ap-hdop":0.55,"rtcmin":"31","ap-latdec":XX.XXX,"a' EX: No JSON object could be decoded Data:

Answer 1

OK my original question was answered which was "Why am I not catching the ValueError exception even though I am providing code to do just that?"
#tadhg McDonald-jensen was correct with his comment to remove my call to handle_error().
I still have some other issues but they are a different question. Thanks!
