[python-win32] RE : win32pdhutil.ShowAllProcesses() fails

[Michel Claveau]

Hi! 

After the Charles's message, I try, on my XP-SP2 "FRENCH". 
Same error : 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\dev\python\ess.py", line 3, in ?
    win32pdhutil.ShowAllProcesses()
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib\win32pdhutil.py", line 95, in ShowAllProcesses
    items, instances = win32pdh.EnumObjectItems(None,None,object, win32pdh.PERF_DETAIL_WIZARD)
pywintypes.error: (-1073738824, 'EnumObjectItems for buffer size', 'No error message is available')


I try with ANSI, CP1252, UTF-8  (no link, just for test)
Perhaps this help you (sorry, I can't do very more)

@-salutations

when I looked again in the archives, I looks that people who have the problem are on non-english OSes... Maybe it is related?

I'm afraid I can't help much.  It looks like the API function is failing with PDH_CSTATUS_NO_OBJECT.  A quick google for this shows a win2k related knowledge-base article, but nothing specific to Windows XP - but hopefully knowing the exact error code being returned by PDH is useful.

Cheers,

Mark

  Hello,

  I cannot manage to use the ShowAllProcesses() function, it returns the following error :

  >>> win32pdhutil.ShowAllProcesses()
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<input>", line 1, in ?
    File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib\win32pdhutil.py", line 95, in ShowAllProcesses
      items, instances = win32pdh.EnumObjectItems(None,None,object, win32pdh.PERF_DETAIL_WIZARD)
  error: (-1073738824, 'EnumObjectItems for buffer size', 'No error message is available')

  I'm using ActivePython 2.4.3 with win32all build 208, on WinXP SP2.

  Thanks in advance for your support!

  Charles Brossollet
