Sorry, I probably should have re-stated the problem: We're using Python 2.3.5 on AIX 5.2, and get the follow error messages from some of our code. I haven't yet tracked down exactly where it's coming from:
sem_trywait: Permission denied sem_wait: Permission denied sem_post: Permission denied We don't run these scripts as root, so I can't say whether they work as root. I suspect they would, though, since root has permissions to do anything. -- ---------------- Mark E. Hamilton Orion International Technologies, Inc.
