New submission from Luke Campagnola: In my application, calling communicate() on a Popen instance is giving the following exception:
. . . File "/usr/lib/python3.5/subprocess.py", line 1072, in communicate stdout, stderr = self._communicate(input, endtime, timeout) File "/usr/lib/python3.5/subprocess.py", line 1693, in _communicate stdout = self._fileobj2output[self.stdout] AttributeError: 'Popen' object has no attribute '_fileobj2output' I have not been able to reproduce this in a simple example, but I imagine this could happen if Popen._communicate() raises an exception in the first 20 lines or so--this would cause _communication_started to be set True, even though _fileobj2output has not been initialized. I suggest setting self._fileobj2output = None in Popen.__init__() and changing the relevant code in _communicate() from if not self._communication_started: self._fileobj2output = {} to: if self._fileobj2output is None: self._fileobj2output = {} ---------- messages: 292575 nosy: Luke Campagnola priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: AttributeError in Popen.communicate() type: behavior versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30203> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
