New submission from news1234 <news1...@free.fr>: Following code snippet will behave differently on Linux and windows hosts.
Under linux the script can only be run once. The second call will raise an exception, as the previous program is already listening to pot 8089. Under Windows however the program can be started twice. and will print twice "serving". This surprises me The script: # ########################## import socket,sys from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager mngr = BaseManager(address=('127.0.0.1',8089),authkey='verysecret') try: srvr = mngr.get_server() except socket.error as e: print "probably address already in use" sys.exit() print "serving" srvr.serve_forever() Perhaps the reason for the problem might be related to http://bugs.python.org/issue2550 I'd suggest to fix multiprocessing.managers.BaseManager such, that it behaves identially on both platforms. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Windows messages: 101380 nosy: news1234 severity: normal status: open title: multiprocessing.managers will not fail if listening ocket already in use type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8184> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
