Progress on switching Windows build to Berkeley DB 4.7.25...
Hi all, Jesus, apologies that this has taken so long for me to get back to, I've been completely and utterly swamped with client work the past few weeks. However, thanks to a couple of hours spare at Detroit airport yesterday, I was finally able to make some progress on updating the Windows Berkeley DB build to 4.7.25. I've checked in the work I've done so far to branches/tnelson-trunk-bsddb-47-upgrade. One thing I wanted to double check with you is the following change: Modified: python/branches/tnelson-trunk-bsddb-47-upgrade/Lib/bsddb/test/test_replication.py ============================================================================== --- python/branches/tnelson-trunk-bsddb-47-upgrade/Lib/bsddb/test/test_replication.py (original) +++ python/branches/tnelson-trunk-bsddb-47-upgrade/Lib/bsddb/test/test_replication.py Wed Jun 18 06:13:44 2008 @@ -94,7 +94,7 @@ # The timeout is necessary in BDB 4.5, since DB_EVENT_REP_STARTUPDONE # is not generated if the master has no new transactions. # This is solved in BDB 4.6 (#15542). - timeout = time.time()+2 + timeout = time.time()+10 while (time.time()<timeout) and not (self.confirmed_master and self.client_startupdone) : time.sleep(0.02) if db.version() >= (4,6) : Basically, when using +2, the test failed every so often when running the entire test_bsddb3 suite.

Apart from this small issue, the other 311 tests pass on x86 and x64 with flying colours, so nice work, whatever you've been doing ;-) Regards, Trent.

The problem is a race condition between the client and the server in the replication. If you have bad luck, the starting order will be reversed and the sync will fail... temporally. BDB Replication Manager has some configurable timeouts for reconnection, master election, etc. The right thing to do is to configure them in the right way. This work is already done in my SVN version. It will be in the 4.7.2 bsddb release. In the meanwhile, your workaround would be enough, although the test checking will be slower. My intent is to publish 4.7.2 as soon as I have a Python 3.0 compatible version. Hope 2-4 weeks from now. Less if I have help solving some ugly issues. | Apart from this small issue, the other 311 tests pass on x86 and | x64 with flying colours, so nice work, whatever you've been doing ;-) Nice to see the tests passing on MS Windows :-p.
