I can't wrap my head around this... I have the following code:
def launch(command):
pf = os.path.join(working_directory, '.pid')
pid = os.fork()
if pid == 0:
stdout = os.open(..., os.O_WRONLY | os.O_CREAT)
try:
proc = Popen(command, shell=False, stdout=stdout, cwd=workdir)
print(proc.pid)
with open(pf, 'wb') as p: # pf should not be open as the file is just created.
p.write(proc.pid)
print("Hello World")
except OSError as proc_error:
...
finally:
os._exit(o) # socketserver catches SystemExit exception (flask)
else:
start = time.time()
while not os.path.isfile(pf): # I'm just checking if that file exists here never opened it in the first place.
if time.time() - start >= 30:
raise TimeoutError...
time.sleep(5)
pid = int(open(pf, 'rb').read())
Here's the output:
The script seem to be hanging at opening pf for writing. I verified, the file if not created, Hello World never gets printed.
Why is this happening, and how can fix it?
Thanks!
I have reduced your code to this (removing everything I could not reproduce given your code):
import os
import time
s = "foo"
pid = os.fork()
from subprocess import Popen
if pid == 0:
proc = Popen(["sleep", "3"])
with open(s, "w") as p:
p.write(str(proc.pid)) # <- Only real error I could see
os._exit(0)
else:
start = time.time()
while not os.path.isfile(s):
if time.time() - start >= 30:
raise TimeoutError("Command took to long")
time.sleep(5)
print("Read from file: " + open(s, 'r').read())
However, it works just fine, it prints Read from file: 12075
. So the issue is not in the part that can be reproduced, given your code.
To read/write the procid to the binary file I succesfully used the pickle module:
pickle.dump(proc.pid,p) # write to file
pickle.load(open(s, "rb")) #read from file
