SimpleXMLRPCServer daemon
I have a script that runs an instance of SimpleXMLRPCServer and in general it works as expected. In its __del__, it is supposed to clean up its PID file (written on boot). I have two problems with this server instance: The first is that tt doesn't always clean up its PID file; is there a more reliable way to do this than how I am currently? The second is that when it does crash, I don't know about it...what would be sufficient as a keep-alive script to restart it? I suppose I could use something like EventMachine (already installed on my server) to watch the PID file if it were deleted reliably.

FTP libs for Python?
I'm interested in writing a script to ease deployment of minor changes on some websites here, and it would involve some SFTP transfers. Do you know of good alternatives to ftplib, which is relatively low- level? Thomas -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Maximum recursion depth exceeded...why?
I must not be understanding something. This is a simple recursive function that prints all HTML files in argv[1] as its scans the directory's contents. Why do I get a RuntimeError for recursion depth exceeded? #!/usr/bin/env python import os, sys def main(): absToRel(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2]) def absToRel(dir, root): for filename in os.listdir(dir): if os.path.isdir(filename): absToRel(filename, root) else: if(filename.endswith(html) or filename.endswith(htm)): print filename if __name__ == __main__: main() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Basically, I'm transforming a live site to a local one and the live site uses all absolute paths (not my decision...). I planned on performing the replace like so for each line: line.replace(root, ../ * depth) So that a file in the top-level would simple remove all instances of root, one level down would sub ../, etc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

This is what my crystal ball tells me because there is no code in sight... Peter I'm referring to the same code, but with a print: for file in os.listdir(dir): if os.path.isdir(file): print D, file in place of the internal call to absToRel...and only one line prints such a message. I mean, if I can't trust my OS or its Python implementation (on a Windows box) to recognize a directory, I'm wasting everyone's time here. In any case, is this the best way to go about the problem in general? Or is there already a way to recursively walk a directory, aware of the current depth?

You think os.listdir() returns a list of absolute path elements. In fact it returns just a list of names. You have to os.path.join(dir, file) to get an absolute path. Anyway stop reinventing the wheel and use os.walk() as I already explained. You can easily spot the depth with directory.count(os.sep). os.path.normpath() helps you to sanitize the path before counting the number of os.sep. Christian If you'd read the messages in this thread you'd understand why I'm not using os.walk(): I'm not using it because I need my code to be aware of the current recursion depth so that the correct number of ../ are substituted in. Also, somebody mentioned wget -R...did you mean wget -r? In any case, I have all of these files locally already and am trying to replace absolute paths with relative ones so that a colleague can present some website content at a location with no internet.

I'm well aware of your messages and your requirements. However you didn't either read or understand what I was trying to tell you. You don't need to know the recursion depths in order to find the correct number of ../. base = os.path.normpath(base) baselevel = root.count(os.sep) for root, dirs, files in os.walk(base): level = root.count(os.sep) - baselevel offset = level * ../ ... See? Christian Very clever (and now seemingly obvious)! That certainly is one way to measure directory depth; I hadn't thought of counting the separator.
