Manuel Kaufmann <humi...@gmail.com> added the comment: I think it isn't a problem / bug, rather than it's a protection method to don't execute this test or cgi stuff with root user.
In the middle, it change a userid to 'nobody', then if you are logged in as root, it can change the userid and then you don't have permission to write in the disk; and if you are logged in with as a regular user it can't change the userid and works OK. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5435> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
