os.fork() sem_wait: Permission denied
- by Roger
I am trying to compile python 2.5 on AIX 6.1, and the following occurs:
Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Jun 3 2010, 11:43:45)
[GCC 4.2.0] on aix6
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.fork()
0
sem_wait: Permission denied
741398
I have found this bug, which sounds similar:
http://bugs.python.org/issue1234
which suggests setting HAVE_BROKEN_POSIX_SEMAPHORES
I have tried this by modifying the configure script, and I can see it being set, but that does not help..
Any ideas ??
