New submission from Daniele Varrazzo: During Popen.communicate(), if a signal is caught during the select(), an unhandled exception is raised, and the output gathered is lost.
This means that a long running or hanged process can't be killed after a timeout (as shown in the attached example, where the output collected before the signal is valuable) The bug happens only when stdout and stderr are not merged and is tested on linux platform. ---------- files: subprocess_signal_bug.py messages: 62392 nosy: piro severity: normal status: open title: Bad interaction between signal and subprocess type: crash versions: Python 2.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9431/subprocess_signal_bug.py __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2113> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
