Re: RELEASED Python 2.4.2 (final)

It would be good if Bugs could confirm that he only deleted the wrong python24.dll, with the proper one being installed in a different place already. His explanation "you called it, it was an errant python24.dll left over from an old ActiveState installation." is too imprecise to be able to tell whether the two python DLLs where in the same location (requiring a repair step) or in different locations (likely then resulting from one being per-machine, and the other per-user). Bugs? Regards, Martin

mod_python works as standalone, does not as service (Windows XP)
by Tau Oct. 2, 2005

Oct. 2, 2005

My mod_python 3.1.4 installation works when Apache 2.0.54 is run in standalone mode (apache -k standalone) but refuses to operate when run as a service (apache -k restart). Logs yield the usual and well-known "make_obcallback: could not import mod_python.apache" error. I have tried PYTHONHOME, LoadFile python24.dll (2.4.2) with no result. I have read *all* threads about make_obcallback that google found. What's even weirder I had this module working yesterday but had to make apache cleanup (fresh installation) and now this is completely stuck. I remember that last time I just had to reinstall Apache over existing mod_python files to get it working but this time it just pointless. I thank everyone who understand differences between standalone and service modes of Apache better than I do.

(or is it dangerous at all?) David.

Yes, and you must also include a blank sheet, signed by you in blood. Seriously, whatever the license of Python itself is, a program you have *written in Python* (which Iassume you are referring to) is completely yours.

Sorta, but not really. Typically, you might distribute the source (.py) files, but if you don't want to do that, you can distribute the compiled .pyc files instead. Python creates these files automatically when your modules are imported.

output events on select
by Tor Erik S�nvisen Oct. 2, 2005

Oct. 2, 2005

Hi When using select, what exactly will trigger an output-event? I have a socket registered in the output-list of the select but an output-event is never generated for that socket. I know the socket is ready to send data, so how can I make select return with an output-event? regards tores

As you said this is in early stage 0.1-alpha-alpha :-) I'm not the author of this interesting piece of work it is Tim Stebbing I only wanted to share Tim's work. Don't hesitate to contact him on the nufox mailin list It runs on top of twisted-nevow. Indeed for now the application is not reinitialized on load, but those are simple examples and there is not yet 'session object' Regards

Class Help
by Ivan Shevanski Oct. 2, 2005

Oct. 2, 2005

To continue with my previous problems, now I'm trying out classes. But I have a problem (which I bet is easily solveable) that I really don't get. The numerous tutorials I've looked at just confsed me.For intance: >>>class Xyz: ... def y(self): ... q = 2 ... >>>Xyz.y() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: unbound method y() must be called with Xyz instance as first argument (got nothing instead) So. . .What do I have to do? I know this is an extremley noob question but I think maybe if a person explained it to me I would finally get it =/ thanks in advance, -Ivan _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
