For example:
>>> '{:04}'.format('abc')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: '=' alignment not allowed in string format specifier
There is no any '=' in the format string.
>>> '{: }'.format('abc')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: Sign not allowed in string format specifier
There is no any sign ('+' or '-') in the format string.
There also an inconsistency between the wording of "something not allowed in string format specifier" and:
>>> '{:x}'.format('abc')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: Unknown format code 'x' for object of type 'str'
>>> '{:xx}'.format('abc')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: Invalid format specifier

See also issue 27772. The difference in the error messages is due to the first ones looking for specific invalid combinations (in this case things the string formatter does not understand), and the last one which is "I have no idea what you're asking for". |

My PR fixes the second case ('{: }') and Serhiy's PR on Issue27772 fixes the first case ('{:04}').
