Subject: [sup-talk] Possible fix for ferret "Permission denied" errors
Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2008 02:11:11 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1202026272-3432-1-git-send-email-chrisw@rice.edu> (raw)
In the forthcoming patch, I have proposed a possible fix for the ferret
"Permission denied" error some have been getting.
I run sup under Cygwin. Before, when I was composing an e-mail and sup
did a background poll and found new messages, sup would crash with the
ferret error "Permission denied".
I think that this has to do with Windows different file sharing
semantics. I've been running with this patch for a while now and not had
another "Permission denied" error.
However, I have not been able to test it on a non-Cygwin setup. I also
don't know if this is the proper way to address this issue. To me, it
seems mery much like a hack. Is there a clean way to either close all
open files, get a list of FDs in use, or get the maximum FD allowed?
Comments welcome and encouraged!
