Hello. I've recently noticed that an application that I ported to mod_python is unable to do signal handling. In particular, it sets a SIGALRM handler, which gets correctly registered (as confirmed by a second call to signal.signal), but after an alarm() call, the signal handler just never gets delivered. It works fine as a CGI. I noticed that Apache uses SIGALRM internally, so for fun I tried registering a SIGWINCH handler instead and then sending myself that signal, and that didn't get invoked either. I've seen this on two different system configurations; one was using Apache 1.3.22, mod_python 2.7.6, and Linux 2.2.19. TIA for any help with this. -- Clarence Gardner Software Engineer NetLojix Communications cgardner at netlojix.com
