New submission from Phil Connell: logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler.doRollover fails on QNX /dev/shmem filesystems (seen on a 6.4.0-based system).
QNX RAM filesystems don't support rename() (see http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/6.4.0/neutrino/sys_arch/fsys.html#DEVSHMEM - it's a 'big filesystem' feature). So for example, rename("/dev/shmem/foo", "/dev/shmem/bar") fails with EXDEV. This is easily fixed by using shutils.move rather than os.rename where appropriate, falling back to copying if a rename() fails. It's not sufficient to set the rotator attribute, since there are other os.rename calls in in doRollover. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: rfh_rename_fix.patch keywords: patch messages: 175277 nosy: pconnell, vinay.sajip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: RotatingFileHandler rollover doesn't work on QNX shmem filesystems versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27941/rfh_rename_fix.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16449> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
