read_nonblocking error in pxssh

I'm attempting to use the pxssh to execute commands on a remote machine and do stuff with the output. Both machines are running SSH Version Sun_SSH_1.0, protocol versions 1.5/2.0 and Intel Solaris 9. I am hitting a problem with read_nonblocking in the pexpect module as follows: >>> import pxssh

Re: Calling Queue experts

Got it. New PickleQueue class should be as follows: import Queue import cPickle class PickleQueue(Queue.Queue): """A multi-producer, multi-consumer, persistent queue.""" def __init__(self, filename, maxsize=0): """Initialize a persistent queue with a filename and maximum size.

Calling Queue experts

I have a script which is based on the following code. Unfortunately, it only works on Python 2.3 and not 2.5 because there is no esema or fsema attribute in the 2.5 Queue. I am hunting through the Queue.py code now to try to figure out how to make it work in 2.5, but as I am a beginner, I am havi

Cleanly exiting multi thread application on SIGINT

Is the following the most elegant way to exit a multi-threaded application on a Ctrl-C? I am a complete beginner and would have thought there was some way of doing it without having to use while 1: pass, but have yet to find a way. N.B. exit() is a method for cleanly exiting the thread using a qu

Re: Newbie imap lib question

All I have to go on is the RFC2060 standard which says: 7.3.1. EXISTS Response Contents: none The EXISTS response reports the number of messages in the mailbox. This response occurs as a result of a SELECT or EXAMINE command, and if the size of the mailbox changes (e.g. n

Newbie imap lib question

I have three messages in my inbox. Why does messageCount = gServer.select('INBOX') not just return OK and 3. See below for examples - seems to be completely random how many threes it returns. The documentation for imaplib seems sparse. Does anybody have any good links? Many thanks, Jon message

Re: Newbie question: SMTP -> SQL Server

Thank you. I have just realised I completely misunderstand how SMTP servers work. From what I can tell, when you run the cookbook script it listens locally on port 8025. You then have to configure a Linux (in my case) account with a username and password so my external piece of software (on anot

Newbie question: SMTP -> SQL Server

I have an externally-written piece of software that spits out emails using SMTP (a few hundred per hour) and I would like to dump the content of them in an MS SQL Server database. I have barely used Python before but it looks as if it could do the job. I have no experience with mail agents. My s

Simple threading

I'm just getting started on threading and was wondering why the following code does not work (i know globals is bad style - I'll eliminate them eventually). All I get is a blank cursor flashing. Many thanks Jon import threading import sys import time global g_datum global g_rawfile global g_raw

Re: newbie class-building question

Thank you this is very helpful. The only thing I now don't understand is why it is calling __coerce__. self.wrapped and other are both lists. Thanks Jon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

newbie class-building question

I am constructing a simple class to make sure I understand how classes work in Python (see below this paragraph). It works as expected, except the __add__ redefinition. I get the following in the Python interpreter: >>> a=myListSub() >>> a [] >>> a+[5] Traceback (most recent call last): File "
