I am facing this problem over two of my deployments on RHEL 6.5 . Could not find any answers over Google search

MemoryError
On calling the import
MemoryError
is received
I am not able to understand the reason.
For
RHEL
+selinux enabled
+/tmp as noexec
, any module that tries to access and execute in/tmp
would generate a MEMORY ERROR.in my case,
/tmp
wasnoexec
and selinux was enforcedThe
/tmp
defaults todefaults,noexec,nosuid,nodev
.I set : looking at : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=645193#c11
Still the problem persisted, if I am to understand correctly this was because of : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582009
So the option
httpd_tmp_exec --> on
was of no use to me.I went looking into python lib files, searching for
/tmp
declaration, and i foundtempfile.py line 147
:def _candidate_tempdir_list()
There in I saw that if there are envnames
TMPDIR
,TEMP
,TMP
, python will pickup the temp location.Which variable to set ? For that I went in
libffi
source code,libffi-3.0.6
. file :src/closures.c
line 290open_temp_exec_file_env, "TMPDIR", 0
.The
TMPDIR
was the candidate to be set.I went ahead with mounting
/opt/app/tmp
, setexport TMPDIR=/opt/app/tmp
Doing all this was working fine, till I used
python idle
, when I went ahead withnginx + uwsgi
deployment, I was caughtup by the same error. Now I am not sure why that was happening, I thought must be auwsgi
execution issue. So I reinstalleduwsgi
first, then I modified the/location
fornginx.conf
and looking at : http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_uwsgi_module.html#uwsgi_temp_path set :uwsgi_temp_path
I restarted all the services, nginx, uwsgi. and tried. It worked.
I also first tried with : (safe) HACK : Python ctypes MemoryError in fcgi process from PIL library
Results were disappointing for me.
