[jira] Commented: (MODPYTHON-234) SystemError: bad argument to internal function

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-234?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12613841#action_12613841 ] 

Alex Cichowski commented on MODPYTHON-234:
------------------------------------------

If Matthew Woodcraft's analysis is correct, the patch attached to MODPYTHON-222 should fix this.

>                 Key: MODPYTHON-234
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-234
>             Project: mod_python
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.10, 3.3.1
>            Reporter: Graham Dumpleton
>
> As raised in thread:
>   http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2007-June/023795.html
> when req.read() is called, on rare occasions it can generate the error:
> 05 18:33:49 2007] [error] [client 200.155.85.225] SystemError: Objects/stringobject.c:3515: bad argument to internal function,
> It is speculated that this is caused by an invalid value being supplied to _PyString_Resize() with code associated with req.read(). In particular, most likely being supplied a negative value for size.
> This issues possibly relates to problems with how mod_python makes use of content length and what request_rec says in respect of remaining amount of data as described in MODPYTHON-212.
> Further highlights how the code for req.read(), req.readline() and req.readlines() has to be completely revised and overhauled to simply read whatever is available rather than trusting content length.
