At the sprints, I ran into a bunch of similar errors running the test suite on my Windows Vista box, even on tests that were properly cleaning up after themselves in tearDown(). I even tried putting in sleeps as long as 1 second, to no avail. The only way to get the test suite to run without these errors was to stop the Windows Search Service, fully disable Icon Overlays for TortoiseSVN, and then close down all open folders. Any chance the boxes the tests are being run on are running the Windows Search Service or have Icon Overlays enabled for TortoiseSVN? (If anyone has any ideas of how to get around these problems, I'd love to hear them. Seems like I shouldn't have to disable these services.) Steve -- I'm not *in*-sane. Indeed, I am so far *out* of sane that you appear a tiny blip on the distant coast of sanity. --- Bucky Katt, Get Fuzzy _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
