Hi, I've recently reinstalled Python 2.6 (from DMG) on my Mac, and I am running into very strage errors. Namely, logging seems to be badly broken. When I open the interpreter through Django's manage.py shell and try to use logging, I get the following error:
>>> logging.critical('ala') ------------------------------------------------------------ Traceback (most recent call last): File "<ipython console>", line 1, in <module> File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/logging/__init__.py", line 1416, in critical root.critical(*((msg,)+args), **kwargs) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/logging/__init__.py", line 1074, in critical self._log(CRITICAL, msg, args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/logging/__init__.py", line 1142, in _log record = self.makeRecord(self.name, level, fn, lno, msg, args, exc_info, func, extra) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/logging/__init__.py", line 1117, in makeRecord rv = LogRecord(name, level, fn, lno, msg, args, exc_info, func) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/logging/__init__.py", line 272, in __init__ from multiprocessing import current_process File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/multiprocessing/__init__.py", line 64, in <module> from multiprocessing.util import SUBDEBUG, SUBWARNING File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/multiprocessing/util.py", line 121, in <module> _afterfork_registry = weakref.WeakValueDictionary() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/weakref.py", line 51, in __init__ UserDict.UserDict.__init__(self, *args, **kw) TypeError: unbound method __init__() must be called with UserDict instance as first argument (got WeakValueDictionary instance instead) I was able to silence the error (and be able to work normally) by making UserDict.UserDict inherit from object. Any ideas what is causing the error? Before I updated Python everything was fine. Am I breaking a lot of things by making UserDict.UserDict a new style class? Thanks in advance for any insight. -- Ryszard Szopa -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
