--------------------------------------
> Connection handler test fails on virtual hosting system such as OpenVPS.
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MODPYTHON-120
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-120
> Project: mod_python
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 3.2.7
> Reporter: Graham Dumpleton
> Assigned To: Graham Dumpleton
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.3
>
>
> On a virtual hosting environment such as OpenVPS, "localhost" does not map to
> the IP address "127.0.0.1" but the actual IP of the host.
> >>> import socket
> >>> socket.gethostbyname("localhost")
> '207.126.122.36'
> This fact causes the connection handler test to fail because it sets up the
> virtual host listener definition as something like:
> Listen 59180
> <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:59180>
> SetHandler mod_python
> PythonPath [r'/home/grahamd/mod_python-3.2.7/test/htdocs']+sys.path
> PythonConnectionHandler tests::connectionhandler
> </VirtualHost>
> In this case it really needs to be:
> Listen 59180
> <VirtualHost 207.126.122.36:59180>
> SetHandler mod_python
> PythonPath [r'/home/grahamd/mod_python-3.2.7/test/htdocs']+sys.path
> PythonConnectionHandler tests::connectionhandler
> </VirtualHost>
> To accomodate virtual hosting arrangements, the test might be able to be
> rewritten as:
> def test_connectionhandler_conf(self):
> try:
> ip = socket.gethostbyname("localhost")
> except:
> ip = "127.0.0.1"
> self.conport = findUnusedPort()
> c = str(Listen("%d" % self.conport)) + \
> str(VirtualHost("%s:%d" % (ip,self.conport),
> SetHandler("mod_python"),
> PythonPath("[r'%s']+sys.path" % DOCUMENT_ROOT),
>
> PythonConnectionHandler("tests::connectionhandler")))
> return c
> This should always work on UNIX boxes, but whether it does on Win32 boxes
> would need to be confirmed.
