[New-bugs-announce] [issue15470] Stuck/hang when reading ssl object

[Seamus McKenna]

New submission from Seamus McKenna <seamus.mckenna at intunenetworks.com>:

My python scripting has been running for several weeks periodically sending out emails.  However the script has been stuck for the last 24 hrs.  No parts of my script have been executed in this period.

On terminating the script via ctrl-c, I can see that the script is stuck with the python ssl library. See below;

File "/export2/home/intregress/LabEnv210/lab/int_lib/int_tools/PTM_COMMON/user.py", line 4277, in email
    mailServer.sendmail(gmail_user, to, msg.as_string())
  File "/tools/ACTIVESTATE/python/2.7.1.3/x86/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 713, in sendmail
    (code,resp) = self.data(msg)
  File "/tools/ACTIVESTATE/python/2.7.1.3/x86/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 482, in data
    (code,msg)=self.getreply()
  File "/tools/ACTIVESTATE/python/2.7.1.3/x86/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 338, in getreply
    line = self.file.readline()
  File "/tools/ACTIVESTATE/python/2.7.1.3/x86/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 177, in readline
    chr = self.sslobj.read(1)
  File "/tools/ACTIVESTATE/python/2.7.1.3/x86/lib/python2.7/ssl.py", line 138, in read
    return self._sslobj.read(len)
