Hello,

I have a client application that listens for events during data acquisition
and updates a Table. Recently I started receiving errors part-way through a
scan, once after 100 points, once after about 400:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/xpaxs/instrumentation/spec/runner.py", line
115, in update
    SpecEventsDispatcher.dispatch()
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/SpecClient/SpecEventsDispatcher.py", line
336, in dispatch
    receiver(args)
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/SpecClient/SpecEventsDispatcher.py", line
49, in __call__
    return robustApply(slot, arguments)
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/SpecClient/SpecEventsDispatcher.py", line
36, in robustApply
    return slot(*arguments[0:n_args])
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/SpecClient/SpecScan.py", line 114, in
__newScanData
    self.newScanData(scanData)
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/xpaxs/instrumentation/spec/scan.py", line
103, in newScanData
    self._scanData.appendDataPoint(scanData)
  File "/home/specuser/src/xpaxs/xpaxs/frontends/xfs/fileinterface.py", line
214, in appendDataPoint
    row = self.h5Node.data.row
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tables/group.py", line 854, in
__getattr__
    return self._f_getChild(name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tables/group.py", line 736, in
_f_getChild
    return self._v_file._getNode(childPath)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tables/file.py", line 914, in
_getNode
    "stale weak reference to dead node ``%s``" % parentPath
AssertionError: stale weak reference to dead node ``/scan3/data``


Could anyone please offer a suggestion, why would my "data" table become a
dead node? At each point in the scan, I do something like:

row = self.h5Node.data.row

for key, val in data.iteritems():
    row[key] = val

row.append()
self.h5Node.data.flush()

where self.h5Node is a reference to the "/scan3" group.

Thanks,
Darren
