Hi-
I am having a problem with shelve. The problem I think is really with
gdbm. I'll write out a file using shelve/gdbm on an amd64 machine and
then I'll try to read it in on a i386 machine. The result is a 'gdbm
fatal: read error.' Reversing directions results in the same problem.
Below are two small programs that get at the heart of the problem:
#test.py####### #######
#!/usr/bin/env python
import gdbm
print gdbm
storage = gdbm.open('test .pstor', 'c')
storage['test'] = 'a'
storage.close()
#test2.py###### ###
#!/usr/bin/env python
import gdbm
print gdbm
storage = gdbm.open('test .pstor', 'r')
print storage['test']
storage.close()
############### ############### #######
The result of running test2 is as follows:
<module 'gdbm' from '/---/software/python/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/gdbm.so'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test2.py", line 4, in <module>
storage = gdbm.open('test .pstor', 'r')
gdbm fatal: read error
It isn't much to go on, but has anybody else had this problem?
Cheers,

Hi - this mysterious behavior with shelve is just about to kill me. I
hope someone here can shed some light. First of all, I have this piece
of code which uses shelve to save instances of some class I define. It
works perfectly on an old machine (PII-400) running Python 2.2.1 under
RedHat Linux 8.0. When I try to run it under Python for windows ME on a
P-4 1.4 GHz, however, it keeps crashing on reading from the shelved file

Hello all,
I have searched and experimented but can't find a way to make this
work. I have an application that I froze using py2exe which uses
Shelve to store data for me. This is the error I am getting:

I only just recently had a look at the shelve module, and it
looks pretty handy, my only question being, what if I really
want two shelves? Must I use two files?
Also, it seems strange that shelve only works with
filenames. I would've expected there to at least be
a variant that would put a shelve database on a file
that is opened for read/write (that is a file object).
That would be handy if, for example, I wanted to couple

Hi,
I just installed (compiled) Python 2.4.2 under Suse 10.
The following code generates a seg error:
import shelve
print shelve.open ('test')
I assume this has to do with the db behind shelve.

I have been trying to get the gdbm module in python 2.4 to read a gdbm file from python 1.5.2 and having no luck. I get a file error when I try to open the 1.5.2-created gdbm file.
Even a very simple gdbm database causes the trouble. E.g. I create a one-entry db in python 1.5.2

I have some old "shelve" databases created in Python 2.2 that use the
old bsddb format, whereas the version of Python 2.4 installed by my
web hosting service doesn't have bsddb available at all (or at least,
it has, but probably not linked properly to the more recent Sleepy Cat
versions of the Berkeley DB - it fails to import _bsddb). Currently,
I have to put python2.2 in my shebangs to get the cgi scripts to run

Hi Guys,
I was going through gdbm-1.8.3 source (http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdbm/
gdbm-1.8.3.tar.gz) and found this strange thing : all the exposed
functions of gdbm work with GDBM_FILE pointer (which is returned by
gdbm_open), but in the implementation of gdbm functions (e.g.
gdbm_open in gdbmopen.c)work with a structure called gdbm_file_info.
Now GDBM_FILE is defined like this in gdbm.h an exposed header :

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
