New submission from Brian Vandenberg: On some of the linux boxes on our (air-gapped, if that matters) network it looks like some of them were mis-configured and their /etc/hosts file looks something like this:
$ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 snoopy.the.internal.domain snoopy localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 ... whereas for other linux machines not exhibiting this problem: $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 woodstock.the.internal.domain woodstock localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 It appears this is causing test_logging to hang while running SocketHandlerTest. Unfortunately I don't have administrative privileges so I'm not able to prove I'm right. I only have circumstantial evidence, but no machine I tested (about 20 machines) contradicts what I stated above. ---------- components: Tests messages: 285452 nosy: phantal priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_logging hangs if /etc/hosts only aliases "localhost" to ::1 type: behavior versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29272> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
