Hell all,

I've run into an interesting error that results in sensors disappearing 
altogether, resulting in the error:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ow/__init__.py", line 271, in 
__init__
     self.useCache( self._useCache )
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ow/__init__.py", line 417, in 
useCache
     for n in owfs_get( self._usePath ).split( ',' ) ] )
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ow/__init__.py", line 159, in _get
     raise exUnknownSensor(path)
ow.exUnknownSensor: '/'


Sure enough, my 1Wire directory is empty except the bus. Killing owfs, 
owserver and owhttpd and attempting to restart using the same commands I 
do at startup yields:

DEFAULT: owlib.c:(56) No valid 1-wire buses found

After rebooting, everything is fine again, until I run the questionable 
script. So the first question is how to reinitialize after fail without 
rebooting. The next is how to not have it fail in the first place. I see 
mention here, but no solution:

What I'm using in owpython is pretty basic, and trimming out other code 
is really:

import ow
ow.init('localhost:4304')
for sensor in ow.Sensor('/').sensorList():
        # do stuff

Interestingly, if I have this in a function like:

def myowfsfun(args):
    ow.init('localhost:4304')
    for sensor in ow.Sensor('/').sensorList():
        #do stuff

if __name__ == "__main__":
     myowfsfun(args)


I can run the function via the script file until the cows come home. If 
I import it into another script, e.g.:

import owfslib

owfslib.myowfsfun(args)

and then run that script, it barfs immediately.

Ideas?

Thanks,
Colin
