Just a thought : I will use "errors=replace" in the call to the encode method to be sure that the logger does not raise any exception. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: SMTPHandler and Unicode
> > Ouch. Implicit encoding sounds like a bad behaviour. Looking at the FileHandler source ( http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/logging/__init__.py?view=markup ) : the utf-8 encoding is a fallback. But *FileHandler family let you specify the encoding you want, so that's OK I think. But SMTPHandler does not have such a thing it sends its email with : msg = "From: %s\r\nTo: %s\r\nSubject: %s\r\nDate: %s\r\n\r\n%s" % ( self.fromaddr, ",".join(self.toaddrs), self.getSubject(record), formatdate(), msg) ... smtp.sendmail(from,to,msg) And there is no encoding in all this. It seems pretty dangerous to me (so my first post) because your application will work without any problem with a FileHandler and the day you'll decide to send email in case of serious problem, it will crash with a UnicodeError. I can't see any workaround, except by subclassing SMTPHandler's emit method to be unicode-aware or at least URF-8 aware. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

a FileHandler works as expected, the log file being UTF-8 encoded. The
SMTPHandler is the only logger I know with this problem, maybe
connected to SMTPLib implementation ?

Your package has the same unicode problem :
import logging,logging.handlers
from mailinglogger.MailingLogger import MailingLogger
mailingLogger = MailingLogger(mailhost=('smtp.example.com',
25),fromaddr='t...@example.com',toaddrs=('t...@example.com',))
LOG = logging.getLogger()
LOG.addHandler(mailingLogger)
LOG.error(u"sans accent")
LOG.error(u"accentu\u00E9")
--> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9'
in position 7: ordinal not in range(128)

SMTPHandler and Unicode
Hello,
I want to send error messages with SMTPHandler logging. But
SMTPHandler does not seem to be unicode aware. Is there something
doable without playing with sys.setdefaultencoding ?
import logging,logging.handlers
smtpHandler =
logging.handlers.SMTPHandler(mailhost=("smtp.example.com",25),
fromaddr="t...@example.com", toaddrs="t...@example.com",
subject=u"error message")
LOG = logging.getLogger()
LOG.addHandler(smtpHandler)
LOG.error(u"sans accent")
LOG.error(u"accentu\u00E9")
gives : UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character
u'\xe9' in position 117: ordinal not in range(128)
Thank you !

Hello all, the python website http://www.python.org/ mentions Version 2.3.6 and 2.4.4 on the most prominent place. Shouldn't this be changed to 2.5.x ? Regards Norbert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

EasyInstall under Windows - strange behaviour
Hello all,
i try to install ZSI under python 2.5 and windows 2000.
I Downloaded the egg and tried the following
c:\Python25\Scripts>easy_install.exe c:\download\ZSI-2.0_rc3-py2.5.egg
The result is that pythonwin pops up and shows the file :
c:\Python25\Scripts\easy_install-script.py :
!C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\Pythonwin.exe
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT:
'setuptools==0.6c3','console_scripts','easy_install'
__requires__ = 'setuptools==0.6c3'
import sys
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
sys.exit(
load_entry_point('setuptools==0.6c3', 'console_scripts',
'easy_install')()
)
What is going on here ?
I presume that there are some trivial things I don't understand, can
someone provide apointer or hint ?
Thank you for your time !
Norbert

The 'ServerRoot' and 'DocumentRoot' directories are the directories you are starting your webserver in. Create a 'cgi' directory inside this and consider that you have to name it in the serverscript in relation to the serverroot! cgi_directories=["/home/fab/Desktop/cgi-bin"] This means you have to start your server inside directory '/'. If you start your server in your home dir '/home/fab' then you have to name your cgi_directories ['/Desktop/cgi-bin']. In your response (cgi-script) you have to divide the header from the content '\r\n\r\n'. HTH Norbert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Threading Problem
Thanks a lot, Steve, for your fast reply. But the behaviour is the same if 'threadfunction' sleeps longer than just 1 second. 'threadfunction' is of course a dummy to show the problem, imagine a longrunning background-task. If you are right, the question remains 'How can I assure that the starting function finishes, while the other thread still runs ?' . As I said, this is the purpose of threading. Thanks again Norbert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Threading Problem
Hello *, i am experimenting with threads and get puzzling results. Consider the following example: # import threading, time def threadfunction(): print "threadfunction: entered" x = 10 while x < 40: time.sleep(1) # time unit is seconds print "threadfunction x=%d" % x x += 10 print "start" th = threading.Thread(target = threadfunction()) th.start() print "start completed" # (the dots are inserted becaus Google mangles the lines otherwise) This program gives the following result : start threadfunction: entered threadfunction x=10 threadfunction x=20 threadfunction x=30 start completed My aim was that the main program should continue to run while threadfunction runs in parallel. That's the point of threads after all, isn't it ? I awaited something like the following : start threadfunction: entered start completed<--- threadfunction x=10 threadfunction x=20 threadfunction x=30 Does anyone know what's going on here ?
