[issue33282] Subprocess Popen communicate hung if stdin not given to Popen, even though script not expecting any input
New submission from Jatin Goel : Hi needed a small help related to the subprocess module I'm executing a powershell process using the subprocess module process = subprocess.Popen( [ 'powershell.exe', script ], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True ) output, error = process.communicate() but the call to the communicate method is getting hung on some machines, and not all i tried to debug the subprocess module but couldn't find anything helpful the script is not expecting any input from the user on the machines where it failed, if I just add stdin=subprocess.PIPE argument, it works process = subprocess.Popen( [ 'powershell.exe', script ], stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True ) above works -- components: Windows messages: 315317 nosy: JatinGoel, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Subprocess Popen communicate hung if stdin not given to Popen, even though script not expecting any input versions: Python 3.6 ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue33282> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue34737] Python upgrade with SYSTEM account uninstalls python
New submission from Jatin Goel :
Team,
I have some Windows machines where Python version 3.6.2 is installed.
We are now upgrading them to 3.6.6
As part of our Install process, we launch the installation script with the
SYSTEM account with the command:
python-3.6.6-amd64.exe /quiet InstallAllUsers=1 log "[logpath]\InstallPython"
This command works fine if I launch it interactively, i.e., from an
Administrator account from command prompt, and version is upgraded successfully.
But when launching the same command from the SYSTEM account, it tries to
install Just for Me, and not all users and some checks fails, and it removes
the installed python as well.

[issue34737] Python upgrade with SYSTEM account uninstalls python
Jatin Goel added the comment: Hi Steve, It's not actually an issue with the Tcl/Tk package. This is happening for all the packages. Even with the installAllUsers flag set, the installation for all users fail, and then it tries to do justForMe installation, and that too is failing. Again elaborating, this issue only comes when trying to upgrade the Python using the SYSTEM account. No antivirus is running on any of the machines where it failed. PFA the log file for Python installation.

[issue34737] Python upgrade with SYSTEM account uninstalls python
Jatin Goel added the comment: Thanks for the info Steve. Yeah I noticed it earlier, but couldn't make sense why it would try per-user uninstall at all. (Thought some upgrade issue, and it was a rollback action) Though we've been doing the installation for all users from the beginning with our script from SYSTEM account. This is the first time we tried upgrade. I'll check and verify on the machines if someone modified it, i.e., uninstalled python and then re-installed with Just for Me option selected. Will let you know how it goes.
