Subject: IDLE error on 3.0.1
Occaisionally, if I mistype in python shell or try to copy & paste a
line there, I get a permanent hang with the error below. It isn't
corrected by quitting IDLE, but is put right with a restart. I am
running 3.0.1 on Mac 10.5.6. Is this a bug, as it never happened on
the same system with 2.5 &2.6.1 ?
Is there another way to prevent this?
Regards
John Forse
IDLE cant bind TCP/IP port 8833 which is necessary to communicate
with it's python execution server. Either no networking is installed
on this computer or another process(another IDLE?) is using the
port. Run IDLE with the -n command line switch to start without a
sub-process and refer to help/IDLE Help 'Running without a sub-
process' for further details
PS I AM connected to the network at the time and Help/Idle help is
greyed-out on my IDLE. I've tried entering -n to IDLE on the initial
blank window, but it seems to make no difference to the problem. I
don't understand what is happening.--
