Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Ok, I enabled faulthandler in the child process and I got the explanation: http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/AMD64%20Windows%20Server%202008%20%5BSB%5D%20custom/builds/5/steps/test/logs/stdio
multiprocessing's manager Server uses daemon threads... Daemon threads are not joined when the interpreter shuts down, they are simply "frozen" at some point. Unfortunately, it may happen that a deamon thread is "frozen" while it was doing a cyclic garbage collection, which later triggers the assert. I'm gonna replace the assert by a plain "if", then. ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: needs patch -> committed/rejected _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8713> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
