I'm getting an error in LockFile.py at this point (line 180) :-
self.__tmpfname = '%s.%s.%d' % ( lockfile, socket.gethostname(), os.getpid())
It looks as though the function socket.gethostname() is causing this error.
How can I display the value returned by this funtion and where should it
be retrieved from? ie should it be using $HOSTNAME ?
socket is a standard Python module. Its gethostname() function should return the same as the hostname shell command. From the command line you should be able to run python and get something like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> hostname mailman2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> python Python 2.2.2 (#3, Feb 11 2003, 16:57:53) [GCC 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import socket >>> socket.gethostname() 'mailman2' >>> import os >>> os.getpid() 17830 >>> import sys >>> sys.exit() [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>
