[issue11102] configure doesn't find major() on HP-UX v11.31
New submission from Oren Held o...@held.org.il: The effect eventually is that on HP-UX v3 there are no os.major() and os.minor() functions. I tried to dig deeper to find out what's wrong, and it seems that 'configure' script fails on 'major' check and thus disables the 'major' feature: 'configure' finds well that /usr/include/sys/sysmacros.h has makedev(), major(), minor() definitions (MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS==1). The problem is that including sys/sysmacros.h is not enough, it depends (but doesn't #include) sys/types.h for the definition of dev_t (needed by makedev() macro). See attached config.log for configure's behavior. -- components: Build files: config.log messages: 127757 nosy: Oren_Held priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: configure doesn't find major() on HP-UX v11.31 versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20652/config.log ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11102 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue11102] configure doesn't find major() on HP-UX v11.31
Oren Held o...@held.org.il added the comment: Attaching a patch I've made for fixing the problem in HP-UX, simply by #including sys/types.h on the configure test.. 1. I'm not sure it'll be good for all platforms; maybe we need more 'configure' magic here to make it #include sys/types.h on this configure test only when needed (e.g. HP-UX v3). 2. Once 'configure' decides to enable the os.major feature, 'make' simply compiles it well - I didn't have to fix things in Modules/posixmodule.c (apparently sys/types.h is already loaded). I'm not sure it's smart to count on it. -- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20653/python-configure-hpux-major-fix.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11102 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue9035] os.path.ismount on windows doesn't support windows mount points
New submission from Oren Held o...@held.org.il: On unices, ismount checks whether the given path is a mount point. On windows, it only checks whether it's a drive letter. Long story short, Python simply returns False when doing ismount(rc:\mount1), while c:\mount1 is a real mount point. This is relevant for all modern windows versions. -- I'm using win32file.GetVolumePathName() for overcoming this, but I'm not sure if the os python package should be importing win32file, maybe there is a better way to check whether a path is a mount point.. -- components: Windows messages: 108225 nosy: Oren_Held priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: os.path.ismount on windows doesn't support windows mount points versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9035 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue8599] _execvpe should behaves inconsistently when PATH includes a filename
New submission from Oren Held o...@held.org.il: A. Description When running os._execvpe with a relative pathname that does not exist, I'd expect to get ENOENT error. But there is an edge case in which Python throws ENOTDIR error - when the LAST element in PATH is a regular file (e.g. /bin/ls). This case is caused by a sysadmin mistake, but it may happen, as in the system on which I've encountered this bug. B. Explanation + How to reproduce: Consider the following case: PATH=/bin:/bin/ls # Last part is a filename instead of a directory import os; os.execvp(blabla, []) Throws: OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory Now, consider a similar but differently-ordered PATH: PATH=/bin/ls:/bin # *First* part is a filename instead of a directory import os; os.execvp(blabla, []) Throws: OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory C. Why this behavior is not good: First, IMO there is a certain problem here - differently ordered PATH shouldn't throw different exception. In both cases the executable was not found in PATH, both cases are the same for this matter. Second, the unix shell (e.g. bash) faces the same issue, and behaves differently. It'll return command not found to stdout for both ENOENT and ENOTDIR cases, regardless of the element order in PATH. D. My recommendation I'd recommend throwing ENOENT even when ENODIR is thrown for some paths. I am not sure what's the least-evil way to do it, I've been thinking of the following patch, but it's not working because it depends on strerror. It also looks kinda ugly: --- os.py.old 2010-05-02 17:41:21.481909804 +0300 +++ os.py 2010-05-02 18:03:11.261872651 +0300 @@ -386,7 +386,7 @@ saved_tb = tb if saved_exc: raise error, saved_exc, saved_tb -raise error, e, tb +raise error, error(errno.ENOENT, os.strerror(errno.ENOENT)), tb # DOESNT WORK, no access to os.strerror from here # Change environ to automatically call putenv() if it exists try: -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 104788 nosy: Oren_Held priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: _execvpe should behaves inconsistently when PATH includes a filename type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8599 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
