I won't have a chance to try your suggestions until next week. Though I'm not convinced that handle_shutdown_signal is even getting called, since I'm not seeing the diagnostic print statement, neither on the console nor where stdout/stderr is being redirected. I did try using the kill command from the console to issue SIGTERM to the process (e.g. kill -s SIGTERM <pid>) and I still got the infinite series of "warning: unhandled exception" messages. - David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
