New submission from Justin Harper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
When I make the same shell call a second time, a weird error occurs.
It appears that the system is caching the call and then returning the
same object the second time, which causes a problem because the stream
is at EOF and there is no way to seek on this sort of file object.
Code:
fout = subprocess.Popen("owplaces -silent -multi", shell=True,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE).stdout
self.output = fout.read()
if self.output != []:
for line in self.output:
print line
fout.close()
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./saveSettings.py", line 30, in next_page
func()
File "./saveSettings.py", line 62, in save_startup
fout = subprocess.Popen("owplaces -silent -multi", shell=True,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE).stdout

The first time the code works time. The second (and subsequent times)
the cryptic error msg is displayed.
