New submission from Geoffrey Spear: On OS X 10.6.8, I'm getting the following result for test_socket:
[cpython] % ./python.exe -m test test_socket [1/1] test_socket /Users/geoff/Documents/programming/cpython/Lib/test/test_socket.py:1721: RuntimeWarning: received malformed or improperly-truncated ancillary data result = sock.recvmsg(bufsize, *args) /Users/geoff/Documents/programming/cpython/Lib/test/test_socket.py:1812: RuntimeWarning: received malformed or improperly-truncated ancillary data result = sock.recvmsg_into([buf], *args) test test_socket failed -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/geoff/Documents/programming/cpython/Lib/test/test_socket.py", line 1169, in testGetaddrinfo socket.getaddrinfo("localhost", None, 0, 0, 0, socket.AI_NUMERICSERV) socket.gaierror: [Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known 1 test failed: test_socket According to the OS X manpage for getaddrinfo(3), (and RFC 3493) this error is the expected behavior for a POSIX socket implementation: AI_NUMERICSERV If the AI_NUMERICSERV bit is set, then a non-null servname string supplied shall be a numeric port string. Otherwise, an EAI_NONAME error shall be returned. This bit shall prevent any type of name resolu- tion service (for example, NIS+) from being invoked. (servname is the 2nd argument to getaddrinfo(), where the test passes None. EAI_NONAME is Errno 8.) Confirmed on 2.7.6, 3.3 and current HEAD of 3.4; the offending test code didn't exist in 3.2 and earlier. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Tests messages: 211053 nosy: geoffreyspear priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_socket (testGetaddrinfo) failing on OS X 10.6.8 (32-bit) versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20605> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
