Vinay Sajip <vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk> added the comment: You may want to re-test with Popen(..., close_fds=True) with the latest Python 2.6. From the latest docs:
http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html "If close_fds is true, all file descriptors except 0, 1 and 2 will be closed before the child process is executed. (Unix only). Or, on Windows, if close_fds is true then no handles will be inherited by the child process. Note that on Windows, you cannot set close_fds to true and also redirect the standard handles by setting stdin, stdout or stderr." In Python 2.5, you can't use close_fds on Windows. In the 2.5 documentation (ActivePython 2.5.2.2) the above paragraph ends with "(Unix only)." ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4749> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
