These would be MUCH better included inline. Please, in future, copy
and paste the *text* of the error message - don't post a screenshot.

As to the actual problem: You're masking a potentially useful
exception behind a bare except that just prints a generic message *and
then continues*. This is a very bad idea. Don't do it. Take all that
out and just attempt the connection; then you'll get a useful error.
Same further down. Just don't.
