Hello list,
I'm testing 3.2.6 version under FreeBSD 4.9. PythonConnectionHandler
test fails and apache dies with sigfault. Tested on:
Apache 2.0.50, Python 2.3
Apache 2.0.55, Python 2.4.2
Apache 2.0.55, Python 2.3
I've compiled debug versions of Apache and mod_python and was able to
reproduce failure of PythonConnectionHandler test under gdb. So here is
backtrace:

Segmentation fault is here (connobject.c):
static PyObject * conn_readline(connobject *self, PyObject *args)
{
long len = 0;
if (! PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "|l", &len))
return NULL;
return _conn_read(self->conn, AP_MODE_GETLINE, len);
^^^^
For some reason self-pointer contains illegal value. gdb output:
(gdb) p self
$2 = (connobject *) 0x58
Next thing. I tried the following (all under gdb):
1) Setup breakpoint at _conn_read function
2) Run the server
3) Initiate new client connection
4) gdb breaks at _conn_read
5) wait for a second
6) disable breakpoint at _conn_read (to stop breaking on arrival of each line
of client's http-traffic)
7) continue (gdb command to continue execution)
This way everything works fine (no segfault, test passes).
I've also tried mod_python 3.1.4 -- no segfaults, all tests were successfully
passed.
Do you have any ideas?
P.S. Sorry for the flood.
