Transport & pytest: garbage cannot be removed [Errno 39]

[khsrali]

To reproduce

When running pytest test_all_plugins.py -s, despite all tests passing successful, a long tail of warning messages is printed:

..
  warnings.warn(
/home/**/lib/python3.12/site-packages/_pytest/pathlib.py:95: PytestWarning: (rm_rf) error removing /tmp/pytest-of-khosra_a/garbage-82a5592f-5337-4d9c-934e-7a6ace59c9a7/popen-gw0/remote7
<class 'OSError'>: [Errno 39] Directory not empty: 'remote7'
  warnings.warn(

<class 'OSError'>: [Errno 39] Directory not empty: 'remote8'
..

that pytest cannot clean the garbage.

To be investigated. Also pinging @unkcpz

Hey if Its not deleting Why not delete it Manually and then runs the Test

[khsrali]

Because we don't want to do it manually, and because it should not happen. :-)

[FARDEEN-785]

Because we don't want to do it manually, and because it should not happen. :-)

Can't we can use Force method to delete

[unkcpz]

The issue me relate to pytest-dev/pytest#12381, which may or may not resolved from our side. If someone what to pick this issue, would be nice to have a deep understanding on problem of data racing introduced by pytest-xdist and how to avoid it nicely.

[FARDEEN-785]

Well I am new to this and don’t have deep understanding but still I will try to resolve this issue

hello @khsrali , is this issue still open? If yes, can I proceed with this ?

[khsrali]

Hi @crs7617,

I think also @ayushjariyal showed some interest working on this.
I don't know if he's still working on it or not.

[ayushjariyal]

@khsrali I am working on it. Right now, my semester exams are going on, so I am unable to give my full time to this. However, I am trying my best.

[khsrali]

It's all good, no hurry! take your time.

[crs7617]

@khsrali Thanks for the update! if there's anything I can help with, feel free to let me know.

[crs7617]

@khsrali, I noticed that @ayushjariyal is currently working on issue #6728. I just wanted to clarify if issue #6751 is separate from that, or if they are related. If they are distinct, I’d be happy to proceed with #6751. Let me know what you think!

[khsrali]

They are independent issues.
I don't know. Maybe @ayushjariyal should answer, if he's also working on that.
For me, either way is ok.

[crs7617]

alright, thanks for the clarification !
