Title: Regression : Incorrect use of subprocess module Status in OpenObject Server: Fix Released Status in OpenObject Server 5.0 series: Fix Released Bug description: I'm using OpenERP 5.0.15 In tools/misc.py: exec_pg_command_pipe() and exec_command_pipe() in the arguments to the subprocess.Popen() function the command name is supplied as the executable parameter and shell=True. This is wrong. If shell=True, then executable has to be the path to the shell, as explained in the following paragraph from http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html : The executable argument specifies the program to execute. It is very seldom needed: Usually, the program to execute is defined by the args argument. If shell=True, the executable argument specifies which shell to use. On Unix, the default shell is /bin/sh. The above two functions have been working up to now only by accident. The subprocess module will spawn the /bin/sh shell and try to execute the first element in the argument list tuple. The first element is the command name (without the full path), but since the command is usually in the shell's path it will succeed. However if , for example, the pg_* commands were not in the shell's path (for example in /usr/lib/pgsql/bin) then it would fail. Patch is attached. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
