Hi All,
I am trying to get a named pipe working, I have already made a fifo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin$ ls -al /home/dave/kmotion2/www/pipe_func
prw-rw---- 1 dave www-data 0 2008-08-20 20:25 /home/dave/kmotion2/www/pipe_func
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/bin$
but when I execute my test code to add an item to the fifo ...
func = '199'
www_dir = '/home/dave/kmotion2/www'
print '%s/pipe_func' % www_dir
pipeout = os.open('%s/pipe_func' % www_dir, os.O_WRONLY)
print 'xxx'
os.write(pipeout, func)
os.close(pipeout)
I get the path printed out & then the script hangs silently on pipeout
= os.open('%s/pipe_func' % www_dir, os.O_WRONLY)
Can anyone tell me why ? I expected it to return immediately
Cheers
Dave
