    <p>the code below is used to sync uploaded picture to another place. it works, but after a period of time(about 10 days), the service is unusable , showing error: 'filedescriptor out of range in select()', but restart service solves the problem.</p> <pre><code># sync.py def sync_file(source_pic, hashval, retry_num=3): pic_path = os.path.join(gen_dir(hashval), os.path.split(source_pic)[1]) filename = tempfile.mkstemp()[1] with open(filename, 'w') as f: f.write(pic_path) for sync_path in options.sync_paths: try_num = 0 rsync_cmd = ['rsync','-au', '--files-from='+filename, options.pic_path, sync_path] while try_num &lt; retry_num: proc = subprocess.Popen(rsync_cmd,stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE) stdout_value, stderr_value = proc.communicate() if len(stderr_value) != 0: logger.error('sync failed: %s' % stderr_value) try_num = try_num + 1 #raise UploadException('sync failed') else: break os.remove(filename) </code></pre> <p>log info:</p> <pre><code>File "/path/to/sync.py", line 25, in sync_file stdout_value, stderr_value = proc.communicate() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 691, in communicate return self._communicate(input) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1211, in _communicate rlist, wlist, xlist = select.select(read_set, write_set, []) ValueError: filedescriptor out of range in select() </code></pre> <p>are there unclosed file descriptors that cause the error? it seems subprocess doesn't close file descriptor, so when it runs 1024 times, the file descriptor is out of range. (we are using python 2.6, subprocess is forced to use select.select() which has a limit of 1024 file descriptors even epoll is available)</p>

    1. COfinally i remove the PIPE redirect when Popen, and checking `proc.returnval`, it seems working.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
