The test passes just fine on my machine.

There's probably something wrong in the way test_httpservers sets up its own environment (can it impact the import mechanism?). The operator module exists and imports correctly in other conditions, e.g. test_operator passes on that buildbot.

Failing on my PPC Tiger OS X buildbot, with 2.6, too.

Bill: can you do some debugging on the buildbot itself? I cannot reproduce the problem locally.

I can reproduce this locally;  it appears to have something to do with distutils and symlinks:

If I do:

ln -s /Users/dickinsm/python/svn/release26-maint/python.exe /Users/dickinsm/Documents/python.exe

and then try to execute the symlink, I get:


newton:~ dickinsm$ ~/Documents/python.exe
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

The '-v' output includes:

It looks as though the failure is due to r79297:  the fix for issue 7668 introduced symlinks for the python executable, and these symlinks are causing the 'import site' to blow up.

Here's a patch (against the release26-maint branch) which fixes the test failures for me.

I wouldn't feel happy about committing this without Tarek looking at it first, though.

Tarek?
msg112688 - (view) Author: Mark Dickinson (mark.dickinson) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-08-03 21:20
Fixed in r83688 for release26-maint.  The fix still needs to be ported to release31-maint.
msg112691 - (view) Author: Mark Dickinson (mark.dickinson) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-08-03 21:34
Fix ported to release31-maint in r83689.

Thanks Tarek for reviewing (on IRC).
