The python bindings fail while doing some stat on some files. Eventhough the files exist they do not fail on open, the stat fails in segmantation fault. Here is the code I used to test it: Both client and server are 4.2.1. Just ran this script several times against a server and it will output: Segmentation fault (core dumped) ```python #!/usr/bin/env python from XRootD import client from XRootD.client.flags import OpenFlags from XRootD.client.responses import XRootDStatus import random import sys xrootd_server = '169.228.130.107' def main(): fileNumber = random.choice(range(1,40)) filename = 'random' + str(fileNumber) + '.root' fileLocation = 'root://' + xrootd_server + ':1094//' + '/data/testdata/' + filename print 'File to be opened: ' + fileLocation with client.File() as f: openOut = f.open(fileLocation, OpenFlags.READ) status, response = f.stat() f.close() sys.exit(0); if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/issues/256 ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the XROOTD-DEV list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=XROOTD-DEV&A=1
