New submission from Mike Hobbs:
Only info (Windows event viewer): Faulting application python_cc.exe, version
0.0.0.0, faulting module python34.dll, version 3.4.3150.1013, fault address
0x001059b7
Note: python_cc.exe is renamed python.exe to identify it in task manager.
OS is Windows XP SP3
The following script crashes the python executable every few hours (not
regular, seemingly random).
The exact same script also crashes python 2.7.13. Each version has the latest
pyserial module installed for the appropriate python version.
When python 2.7 crashes, the reported error is always in _ctypes.dll which is
used extensively in the serialwin32.py for reading the serial port, but python
3.4 fails in the main DLL.
This same script has been running without a problem for several years on the
same hardware (Quad core Shuttle with CurrentCost 128 electricity monitor on
COM3, using PL2303 serial/USB chipset (probably clone)). The crashes have only
occured since harddisc replacement involving new XP installation and
reinstallation of application software.
Occasionally, the crash results in a blue screen but usually its just the task
crash notification (which I automatically dismiss using AutoIt3 watchdog
script). Everything else on the machine id running normally so the serial port
handling is the prime suspect.
