New submission from Nikolaus Rath <nikol...@rath.org>:
$ cat test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import stat
dbfile = './testfile.test'
with open(dbfile, 'w') as fh:
print('Opened file for writing')
os.unlink(dbfile)
os.mknod(dbfile, stat.S_IRUSR | stat.S_IWUSR | stat.S_IFREG)
print('Mknod\'ed file')
[cl...@ih ~]$ cd tmp <-- nfs mounted on a 64bit Fedora box
[cl...@ih tmp]$ ~/tmp/test.py
Opened file for writing
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/cliff/tmp/test.py", line 9, in <module>
os.mknod(dbfile, stat.S_IRUSR | stat.S_IWUSR | stat.S_IFREG)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
[cl...@ih tmp]$ cd /tmp <-- locally mounted on a HD
[cl...@ih tmp]$ ~/tmp/test.py
Opened file for writing
Mknod'ed file
I think the mknod() call really shouldn't fail if it tries to create an
ordinary file that can be created with open() with problems.
