Thanks a lot for the debugging help, Wes Alternatively you could 'fix' your python installation by editing the socket.py in your stdlib, so that it deletes the MSG_WAITALL symbol after importing it from the builtin _socket module. --irmen -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I do not think Windows supports it. It seems to cause some problems in some libraries (like Pyro) that use it if it's available in the socket module. Does anyone know more about this? MSG_WAITALL is supported, starting with Windows Server 2003. It's a tough situation. Ideally, you'd want socket to remove that symbol on the systems where it's not supported, but that's asking a lot. My installation doesn't have _socket.MSG_WAITALL, Wes, I wonder where yours is coming from? (Python 2.5.4 and 2.5.2, on Windows XP. On my Mac (OS X) it does have the flag, and it's working fine there.). --irmen -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

MSG_WAITALL is supported, starting with Windows Server 2003. It's a tough situation. Ideally, you'd want socket to remove that symbol on the systems where it's not supported, but that's asking a lot. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
socket.MSG_WAITALL flag broken on Windows XP in Python 2.5.4?
I noticed the flag socket.MSG_WAITALL seems to have crept its way into Python 2.5 on Windows (it's in 2.5.4, but not in 2.5.1, not sure about intermediate releases). I do not think Windows supports it. It seems to cause some problems in some libraries (like Pyro) that use it if it's available in the socket module. Does anyone know more about this?
