The bug is starting to really annoy me. Maybe there will be a 1.0.4 after all (it might be quicker to release that than to answer all the mail about the problem...)

Unfortunately there is no more recent release. If you run from CVS Head (which will be 1.1a1 in the not-too-distant future) then they should only get written to the log once per hour. That helps the effect, but doesn't address the cause, though. I believe that the unhandled exception message comes from asyncore. If I'm following things correctly, select.select() is saying there was a problem with a socket. Unfortunately, asyncore doesn't give any more information than "warning: unhandled exception". Nor does it look straightforward to try and collect such information (it looks like a modified/overridden asyncore.poll() is required). Since this didn't come up before 1.0.3 (AFAIK) maybe this is something to do with using Python 2.4, since that's the main change between 1.0.1 and 1.0.3 (and 2.4 did include changes to asyncore). If you have 2.3 handy and can run from source, that may fix the problem. (Or you can use 1.0.1). I don't really have much time to look into this until next week (and I'd hoped to use that time to get 1.1a1 out). I need to either find out how to replicate this problem (what is it that causes the first error?) or create a special release that includes a lot more debugging information, and convince someone to run it. I might manage to try the latter tomorrow. =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list ([email protected]) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
