New submission from Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de>:
BPO https://bugs.python.org/issue34651 disabled fork in subinterpreters. The patch also disabled fork() in _posixsubprocess.fork_exec(). This broke the ability to spawn subprocesses in mod_wsgi daemons, which use subinterpreters. Any attempt to spawn (fork + exec) a subprocess fails with "RuntimeError: fork not supported for subinterpreters": ... File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 829, in __init__ self._execute_child(args, executable, preexec_fn, close_fds, File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 1608, in _execute_child self.pid = _posixsubprocess.fork_exec( RuntimeError: fork not supported for subinterpreters Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1745450 ---------- components: Extension Modules, Interpreter Core keywords: 3.8regression messages: 350511 nosy: christian.heimes, eric.snow, vstinner priority: critical severity: normal status: open title: Disallow fork in a subinterpreter broke subprocesses in mod_wsgi daemon mode versions: Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37951> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
