I only saw the failure on test_telnetlib, not in other tests using sockets. I think that this issue is specific to test_telnetlib (even not telnetlib). It is maybe a race condition: the code to wait until the server is active is maybe not correct. GeneralTests.setUp() waits until the server has called serv.listen(5). I don't know if the server must be waiting in serv.accept() on Windows (using Cygwin?). Last instruction of GeneralTests.setUp() is a time.sleep(.1): ugly synchronization hack to workaround a race conditon?? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11812> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
