well I just did print a message: PIPEPATH = ["/tmp/mypipe"] [..] try: self.process = os.popen( self.PIPEPATH, 'w') except: print "Error while trying opening the pipe!" print "check: ", self.PIPEPATH exit() I see the error messages. It's quite frustrating as I think I am doing something really stupid in here. Mik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
