[Python-Dev] 2.6 on Windows (original) (raw)

Can anybody verify and hopefully fix the problems seen in the Windows bots for the trunk (i.e. 2.6)?

FWIW, I can't reproduce most of those problems. My 32bit build sees:

303 tests OK. 57 tests skipped: test__locale test_aepack test_al test_applesingle test_bsddb185 test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_kr test_codecmaps_tw test_commands test_crypt test_curses test_dbm test_dl test_epoll test_fcntl test_fork1 test_gdbm test_gl test_grp test_imageop test_imgfile test_ioctl test_kqueue test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_macos test_macostools test_mhlib test_nis test_normalization test_openpty test_ossaudiodev test_pipes test_poll test_posix test_pty test_pwd test_py3kwarn test_resource test_scriptpackages test_signal test_socketserver test_ssl test_sunaudiodev test_tcl test_threadsignals test_timeout test_urllib2net test_urllibnet test_wait3 test_wait4 test_zipfile64 2 skips unexpected on win32: test_tcl test_ssl

and once I made the changes I just uploaded to http://bugs.python.org/issue3625 (which are just tweaks to skip certain tests on win64), a 64bit build reports:

303 tests OK. 57 tests skipped: test__locale test_aepack test_al test_applesingle test_bsddb185 test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_kr test_codecmaps_tw test_commands test_crypt test_curses test_dbm test_dl test_epoll test_fcntl test_fork1 test_gdbm test_gl test_grp test_imageop test_imgfile test_ioctl test_kqueue test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_macos test_macostools test_mhlib test_nis test_normalization test_openpty test_ossaudiodev test_pipes test_poll test_posix test_pty test_pwd test_py3kwarn test_resource test_scriptpackages test_signal test_socketserver test_ssl test_sunaudiodev test_tcl test_threadsignals test_timeout test_urllib2net test_urllibnet test_wait3 test_wait4 test_zipfile64 2 skips unexpected on win32: test_tcl test_ssl

Which is the best state I've ever managed to get the 64bit build to.

Note however that bsddb3 was skipped by my tests. Running that test alone, both platforms report the same error as the buildbot:

FAIL: test01_basic_replication (bsddb.test.test_replication.DBReplicationManager)

Traceback (most recent call last): File "o:\src\python-svn-amd64\lib\bsddb\test\test_replication.py", line 134, in test01_basic_replication self.assertTrue(time.time()<timeout) AssertionError

However, the error appears after a number of seconds of inactivity - so I suspect it has nothing to do with the timer resolution on Windows and more about the fact that the test really did fail.

So while I'm not sure what else the buildbot is seeing, the only real problem seems exactly 1 test in the bsddb3 tests.

Cheers,

Mark
