[Info-vax] DECThreads hard landing

[Volker Halle]

Arne,

is this what happened ?

You ran your Python program
It seemed to hang, so you issued a CTRL-C 
Nothing happened
Then you typed CTRL-Y and got to the DCL prompt
Then you invoked another image ($ DIR), causing the Python image to be terminated forcefully and the DECthreads bugcheck info to be printed and an image dump to be generated - please don't abort the image dump and save the python.dmp file for later analysis.

Is this reproducable ?

Try $ THREADCP /ENABLE=UPCALL python.exe;3 and try to reproduce again.

If you can, please report this problem to VSI support. I can't tell, whether this is an OpenVMS DECthreads problem, a Python problem or a problem with your Python program, but maybe VSI can tell.

Volker.
