remote debugging fails, can't import netserver

[Mark A. Schmucker]

I'm trying to set up remote debugging. It is not possible to install Wing on the remote machine, so I have followed the instructions in the manual, section 11.1.2, Installing the Debugger Core. I have used the second option shown there- copying wingdbstub.py, bin/wingdb.py, and bin/2.4/src/debug/tserver to the remote machine. I have specified winghome in my wingdbstub.py.

 

When I run the remote process, it does find and import bin/wingdb.py, but it cannot import netserver. (netserver.pyc is available in my tserver directory.) wingdb.py does correctly generate the two default locations, adds them one by one to the sys path, and tries to import netserver. The first of the two default locations, <my winghome>/bin/2.4/src/debug/tserver, does indeed contain the file netserver.pyc, yet the import fails.

 

The output seems to indicate netserver.pyc is failing at line 206:

 

    File "2.4/src/debug/tserver/netserver.pyc", line 206, in ?

 

Sorry I can't send the entire debug output- it's on a private network, no internet.

 

Any ideas?

 

Mark

Try turning on kPrintAllTracebacks in wingdb.py and also set kLogFile
in wingdbstub.py if you have not already done so.  I suspect the real
issue is failure to import the extension module.  Are you copying from
a machine w/ same OS?

Stephan,

Just to close the loop on this issue, the main problem was that I didn't
follow the instructions carefully. In 11.1.2 "Installing the Debugger Core",
I didn't  see the little green "!=". Perhaps you could re-phrase this
instruction for those of us who are semi-literate.

Thank for your support- excellent as always.

Mark
