Popen: NameError: name 'PIPE' is not defined

Hi

I import subprocess and use Popen, but PIPE is not defined. I used
2.5.1, 2.5.2, Python 2.6a3+ (trunk:63576, May 24 2008, 12:13:40), it's
always the same. What am I missing ?

Thanks

Without showing code, it's hard to know. A guess is: if you use

import subprocess
then use
subprocess.PIPE

Or if using

from subprocess import Popen

make sure to do

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

I added a function 'warn_Admin' and defined it just before another function 'process_log'. 'process_log' calls this warn_Admin' function. However, when it gets called i get the following error every time: --- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/denyhosts.py", line 202, in ? first_time, noemail, daemon) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/DenyHosts/deny_hosts.py", line 86, in __init__ last_offset)

Hi all, I have a problem using wget and Popen. I hope someone can help. -- Problem -- I want to use the command: wget -nv -O "dir/cpan.txt" "http://search.cpan.org" and capture all it's stdout+stderr. (Note that option -O requires 'dir' to be existing before wget is executed) Popen doesn't work, while os.system and shell do. Popen will give the error:

Hi. I wondered if anyone knew the rationale behind the naming of the Popen class in the subprocess module. Popen sounds like the a suitable name for a function that created a subprocess, but the object itself is a subprocess, not a "popen". It seems that it would be more accurate to just name the class Subprocess, can anyone explain why this is not the case? Thank you.
