Tim Golden added the comment: Simplest solution might be to catch PermissionError and call skipTest from within. This would allow buildbots to run the test which had access through the relevant share. -- ___ Python tracker

[issue15338] test_UNC_path failure in test_import

Tim Golden added the comment: My guess is that it's to do with Service Hardening. I did a quick dump of my token in an interactive session and as the owner of a service. Quite a few differences. I haven't read up on this area yet so I'm not sure what options there are / how easy to get the neces

Jeremy Kloth added the comment: The buildbot service account is a standard user (per the buildbot servce installation directions). When logged on, the user can access the share. Just when logged on as a service is when it cannot. After much searching, I still cannot find any information on ho

[issue15338] test_UNC_path failure in test_import

Tim Golden added the comment: For this particular buildbot setup, maybe yes. But it would be possible in principle to have a buildbot configuration which could allow the test to execute. (eg one running under a user account which can access the path via an admin share). Does the buildbot owner h

[issue15338] test_UNC_path failure in test_import

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Well, this particular path is the build directory itself, so it's certainly accessible through the normal (non-UNC) path. There has to be something else :-) Jeremy told me his buildbot process runs as a service, perhaps that is related? --

Tim Golden added the comment: Well os.listdir doesn't fail to access a UNC path on Windows x64 in general. So presumably this particular path is not accessible by the buildbot process owner? -- ___ Python tracker

New submission from Antoine Pitrou : On the Win64 buildbot, trying to access an UNC path raises PermissionError, which makes a test fail: == ERROR: test_UNC_path (test.test_import.PathsTests) ---
