How do I separate my parameters with spawnv

Hi,

I have a command line that works fine when I execute it directly:

c:\\curl.exe -T c:\\upload.txt -u login:pwd ftp://ftp-myurl --ftp-ssl

But when I try to use os.spawnv to excute it from my python code, it
doesn't work at all. Here is my code:

exe = "c:\\curl.e xe"
f = "c:\\upload.txt "
logon = "login:pwd"
url = "ftp://ftp-myurl"
import os
os.spawnv(os.P_ WAIT, exe, ["-T", f, "-u", logon, url, "--ftp-ssl"])

Does anyone know How I can execute my command line in python?

Thanks and best regards,
Fabio

iirc, spawnv expects an argv-style list, with the program name as the
first argument. try writing the above as

os.spawnv(os.P_ WAIT, exe, [exe, "-T", f, "-u", logon, url, "--ftp-ssl"])

the subprocess module is usually much nicer for things like this.

Greetings, I am running RedHat 7.3 and trying to spawn a hello.py program from hello_driver.py by using spawn*( ) API, as a P_NOWAIT : os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT,'/usr/bin/python',('python hello.py >/dev/null &')) and when i check the process state code of hello.py by: ps -aux

Try to launch a test program that prints hello world for a minute or so using, spawnv( ) or spawnl( ). Check to see the process state code that the program is running. I am using RedHat Linux 7.3 and Python 2.2.2 and i see that the program is either launched as Zombie state using spawnv(), or running in State "S" sleep in spawnl( ). Here's the sample code that launches my program: os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT,'/usr/bin/python',('python...

If you do not null out the output of your parent process that launches a child process by os.spawnv( ) in P_NOWAIT mode, you will see that your child process is launched *synchronously* instead of asynchronously. This is a bug! Here's a code sample: In your parent.py file, call child.py as os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT,'/usr/bin/python',('python', 'child.py'))

I am using os.spawnv in Python 2.1 to do some geoprocessing in a subroutine/process. Everything works great, except when the processing is done the subroutine just waits for a couple minutes before closing itself and returning to the main script. I have tried using sys.exit() and exit() but these aren't doing anything. What is the proper way to terminate this subroutine upon completion, rather than waiting? Thank you.

I'm not sure if this is how I'm supposed to post, but I saw a thread entitled, "Help with os.spawnv", that I wanted to respond to.
