New submission from Tony Nelson <tony_nel...@users.sourceforge.net>:
test_httpservers fails the CGI tests if Python was built as a shared library (./config --enable-shared) and not yet installed. To run such a Python without installing it, the command line must define LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the build directory. I see that the new environment for the child CGI process still has LD_LIBRARY_PATH set. The child process is not using that when the CGI is invoked. After the new shared Python (or one like it) is installed, the test passes, but the CGIs aren't using the correct copy of Python. I'm doing this with Python 2.6.1, but the version probably doesn't matter. ---------- components: Tests messages: 84969 nosy: tony_nelson severity: normal status: open title: test_httpservers fails CGI tests if --enable-shared type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5638> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
