My problem is my app needs to be a server to many clients (thru TCP - twisted.protocols.basic) but a client to a further server, to which it passes occasional information. Is this possible through twisted, since I need two threads, one with the server reactor.run() and one with the client connection listenTCP()? At present using UDP for the client connection, if I call reactor.run() after listenUDP(), I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "E:\Dev\Python\Lib\threading.py", line 460, in __bootstrap self.run() File "G:\_Dev\Gateway 20071011\gatewayClient.py", line 59, in run reactor.run() File "E:\Dev\Python\lib\site-packages\twisted\internet\posixbase.py", line 219, in run self.startRunning(installSignalHandlers=installSignalHandlers) File "E:\Dev\Python\lib\site-packages\twisted\internet\posixbase.py", line 215, in startRunning self._handleSignals() File "E:\Dev\Python\lib\site-packages\twisted\internet\posixbase.py", line 185, in _handleSignals signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, self.sigTerm) ValueError: signal only works in main thread If I don't call reactor.run(), it works. I can still send and recieve. What then, is the role of the reactor? I thought it started the listening loop? Thanks Simon Jean-Paul Calderone wrote:
