#24421: python dies using multiprocessing/urllib2 from mac ports, but works with stock python ----------------------------------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: vkuznet@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: python crash, urllib2, multiprocessing | Port: ----------------------------------------------------+----------------------- Hi, I observed very tricky problem. I have application written in python which uses multiprocessing module. So using the python 2.6 from macports cause python die in a thread when urllib2 module is invoked. To test I installed stock python 2.6.5 from python.org and everything works. I also verify that the problem lies with urllib2/multiprocessing modules, since if I replace urllib2 to httplib, everything works too. I attach apple traceback which shows the problem. My guess that macports uses either special patch or enable flags which didn't come with stock python source and that cause a problem.
