It seems impossible to me. The while loop should only exit if
stop_requested becomes set, OR if an exception is raised. However, all
exceptions are cought and logged. But there are no exceptions logged.
And stop_requested is NOT SET. (see the last line in the log).
What is happening here?
It was a bad assumption. Not all exceptions are subclasses of
"Exception". In this case, an inner call raised SystemExit(0).
Glad to see you finally found what was happening!
So be aware. Don't think that this will catch all exceptions:
try:
???
except Exception,e:
do_with(e)
Use this instead:
import sys
try:
???
except:
e = sys.exc_value
do_with(e)
Only at the outermost block on your code, if ever... The fact that some
exceptions don't inherit from Exception is on purpose -- usually you
*dont* want to catch (and swallow) SystemExit (nor KeyboardInterrupt, and
a few more I think)
