New submission from Paul Moore <p.f.mo...@gmail.com>: Windows 3.x buildbots are failing in test_tarfile.
The problem, as best I can diagnose it, appears to be a failure somewhere in the tarfile module to close files on exceptions. The error is "WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process", but I am pretty sure it's actually the *same* process which still has an open handle on the file. The problem occurs around test_append_gz, which tries to open the tarfile but expects an error. I think when the call raises the error, it is leaving a filehandle open, which is what causes the delete in setUp to fail. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Tests keywords: buildbot messages: 95395 nosy: pmoore priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_tarfile failing (file in use when deleting) on Windows buildbots versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7341> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
