Was trying os.execl() and got a "python.exe has stopped working" on my Windows
7 Ultimate SP1 x64 desktop.
I'm using Python 2.7.4 and that happens when the second arg is ''. For example:
os.execl('filename.exe','')
Wtf? :(

Yes, just those two lines cause the error. 'filename.exe' exists and runs ok in
the command prompt. Any other executable cause the problem, also '', for
example:
os.execl('','')
If doesn't work on Windows it should give an error message, right?

Probably a bug I suppose. :(
I've used subprocess before and it works fine. I was just learning about the os
module. os.execl() works if you provide no nulls, for example:
os.execl('c:\\bin\\filename.exe','filename.exe','arg1')
Is there the place to open a ticket for Python developers? Who keep
I did that but unfortunately the 'bug' persists. :(
I've chosen the os module because I though it would be more portable. :/

It works fine as long as you don't provide a null string ('') to os.execl(),
such as:
os.execl('filename.exe','')

It isn't, but it doesn't matter because all executables I've tried cause the
error, even "ping.exe". Just try:
os.execl('ping.exe', '')
And it will cause the "python.exe has stopped working" error message.
