Hello all,

I have a deamon process that runs for some considerable time (weeks) without 
any problems. At some point it starts throwing the following exception:

  File "/some/path/scheduler.py", line 376, in applyrule
    result = execrule(rule_code)
  File "/some/path/scheduler.py", line 521, in execrule
    rulepath = 
os.path.dirname(__file__)+"/"+'/'.join(rule['modules'])+"/"+rule['rulename']
NameError: name '__file__' is not defined

This section is executed *all the time* but somehow stops working after a 
while. I have searched the web and this group, but can only find references to 
this occurring when run interactively, which is not the case here. When I 
restart the process the problem, at least temporarily, disappears.

I am running the script in a virtual-env on a stock Red Hat EL 6.2 installation:

(my-env)[user@host ~]$ python --version
Python 2.6.6
(my-env)[user@host ~]$ cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago)

Thank you very much in advance for any pointers as to where to start looking to 
find the problem.

Ian.

(If this post occurs twice, I apologize. Google groups was complaining about my 
post taking long to process and to wait a few minutes and try again if it 
didn't show up, which as far as I can determine, it didn't.)
