Graham Dumpleton commented on MODPYTHON-234:
--------------------------------------------
This error also seen by someone using Django and LimitRequestBody directive.
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_frm/thread/fb72bd122ae283ad/fa18c0f8a294f5d1#fa18c0f8a294f5d1
This directive may perhaps be a way of reproducing the problem allowing it to
be tracked down.
Do note though that as a separate issue, mod_python doesn't work properly with
LimitRequestBody. This is described in that discussion but I haven't logged it
as a separate issue yet.
> SystemError: bad argument to internal function
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MODPYTHON-234
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-234
> Project: mod_python
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 3.2.10, 3.3.1
> Reporter: Graham Dumpleton
>
> As raised in thread:
> http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2007-June/023795.html
> when req.read() is called, on rare occasions it can generate the error:
> 05 18:33:49 2007] [error] [client 200.155.85.225] SystemError:
> Objects/stringobject.c:3515: bad argument to internal function,
> It is speculated that this is caused by an invalid value being supplied to
> _PyString_Resize() with code associated with req.read(). In particular, most
> likely being supplied a negative value for size.
> This issues possibly relates to problems with how mod_python makes use of
> content length and what request_rec says in respect of remaining amount of
> data as described in MODPYTHON-212.
> Further highlights how the code for req.read(), req.readline() and
> req.readlines() has to be completely revised and overhauled to simply read
> whatever is available rather than trusting content length.
