Python中的“无法启动新的线程错误”

我正在运行一个脚本,它从debian包中提取信息并将其保存在数据库中。

从大约100个包中提取信息后发生错误。错误是“无法启动新线程” 为什么我会遇到这个错误?可能的解决办法是什么?

这是用于保存数据的代码:

for i in list_pack:

      if not i in oblist:        
        #Creating Packages
            slu=slugify(i)
            ob=Gbobject()
            ob.title=i
            ob.slug=slu
            ob.content=''
            ob.tags=tagname
        #with reversion.create_revision():
            ob.save()
            gb=Gbobject.objects.get(title=i)
            gb.objecttypes.add(Objecttype.objects.get(title='Packages'))
            gb.sites.add(Site.objects.get_current())
        #with reversion.create_revision():
            gb.save()
            gd=Gbobject.objects.get(title=i)
            print 'The Object created was',gd


            #Decsription
            try:
                atv=package_description_dict[i]
                atvalue=unicode(atv,'utf-8')
            except UnicodeDecodeError:
                pass
            try:
                lo=Gbobject.objects.get(title=i)
                loid=NID.objects.get(id=lo.id)
            except Gbobject.DoesNotExist:
                pass
            if atvalue<>'':
                slu=slugify(atvalue)
                at=Attribute()
                at.title=atvalue
                at.slug=slu
                at.svalue=atvalue
                at.subject=loid
                att=Attributetype.objects.get(title='Description')
                at.attributetype=att
                #with reversion.create_revision():
                at.save()                    
                print 'yeloow13'

就像Description一样,还有大约2个属性的包以类似的方式保存。

这是发生错误时获得的完整回溯: -

我没有编写任何代码来处理线程。

2 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:13)

很抱歉在这里有一个不完整的解决方案,我没有在评论部分发布评分。

要检查的一件事是您运行的线程总数。我有一些代码检查核心数(使用sys),然后启动线程并检查核心加载以测试操作系统如何处理线程分配,并且我已经了解到Windows 7(例如)似乎抛出超过32个线程的错误在8(逻辑)核心CPU上。 [这是在Python 2.7,Win 7 64位等32位,YMMMV]。在其他机器上,我可以超过1,000个线程。

所以我想短版本是:当你收到错误时,你已经有多少线程?您可以查看

threading.active_count()

除此之外,你并没有真正给出代码中的线程部分,所以我会引导你进入这个优秀的Python Central page

您可能还会受益于此前Stack overflow discussion大型线程任务计数以及如何处理它们。

再次,我很抱歉这不仅仅是一个解决问题的方向,我认为可能需要更多信息来帮助我们了解您遇到的问题。

答案 1 :(得分:0)

您正在使用32位系统并耗尽虚拟内存。您的某个库可能会生成线程而不能正确回收它们。作为解决方法,尝试使用threading.stack_size减少默认线程堆栈大小。
