New submission from Jurko Gospodnetić: If you press Ctrl-C during Python startup on Windows you may get interpreter crashes with different Python tracebacks displayed on the standard system error output stream.
Reproduced using: - Windows 7 SP1 x64 - Python 3.3.3 (64-bit) as downloaded from 'http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.3.3' (but seen with different earlier Python versions as well). - either a non-trivial Python script, one containing only a '#! python3' shabang line, or a completely empty one - default site.py To reproduce simply run the Python interpreter with a prepared Python script as input and press Ctrl-C immediately afterwards. Possible results: * Script finishes before your Ctrl-C kicks in. * You get a clean KeyboardInterrupt traceback and the script exits. * You get a KeyboardInterrupt traceback and the interpreter process crashes. I'm attaching more detailed information on specific crash instances. For some more information & background see the devel mailing list thread started at: 'https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2013-December/130750.html'. ---------- components: Interpreter Core, Windows files: crash-info-10.txt messages: 206212 nosy: Jurko.Gospodnetić priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Ctrl-C causes startup crashes on Windows type: crash versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33137/crash-info-10.txt _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19983> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
