AttributeError: type object '_SearpcObj' has no attribute '__bool__'

I think this is a python2.7/python3 bug in libsearpc and getattr method should not return None for bool or other XXX methods.

haiwen/libsearpc/blob/master/pysearpc/client.py#L47
PythonCharmers/python-future/blob/master/src/future/types/newobject.py#L68

Any suggestions how to fix this?

@towa48 Be very wellcome to the Seafile Forum! By the way, thanks a lot por the git pulls requests :slight_smile:

I cannot reproduce at least with 7.0.5:

root@xxxxx /home/seafile/seafile-server-7.0.5 # ./reset-admin.sh
E-mail address: xxxx@xxxx
Password:
Password (again):
Superuser created successfully.

Very strange because libsearpc is not changed
I can fix this by patch future as follow

rm /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/future/types/newobject.pyc
nano /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/future/types/newobject.py

  def __nonzero__(self):
    try:
      # if hasattr(self, '__bool__'):
      if getattr(self, '__bool__', None) is not None:
          return type(self).__bool__(self)
      # if hasattr(self, '__len__'):
      if getattr(self, '__len__', None) is not None:
          return type(self).__len__(self)
    except:
      return True
    # object has no __nonzero__ method
    return True

Can you check your PYTHON version?
printenv PYTHON or echo $PYTHON
$ python -V

Python 2.7.15+

Same as mine.
The issue same as github .com/google/rekall/issues/312

The fix is

def __getattr__(self, attr):
        if not attr.startswith("__"):
            return obj.NoneObject("Attribute not set")
        raise AttributeError(attr)

I think python 2.7 hasattr method returns true for None value =)

I’m using future 0.16.0

8

Mine is 0.17.1

root@box:/# ls /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ | grep future
future
future-0.17.1.dist-info
futures-3.3.0.dist-info

try to downgrade

10

Ok. I can try this later but i don’t think this fix the error, because code the same.
github .com/PythonCharmers/python-future/blob/dd4f27ec99eec1ef9049f93db1176da0ea0d2e84/src/future/types/newobject.py#L86

@jobenvil thanks for your help anyway

11

Indeed!

Pls, let me know if you need to compare something else more.

@jobenvil Most likely this is libsearpc version.
Build script refers 3.1.0. What version do you have?

LIBSEARPC_VERSION=3.1.0
LIBSEARPC_TAG=v$LIBSEARPC_VERSION
13

@towa48 Checking the logfiles and output (libsearpc-3.1.0.tar.gz) I have theoretically the same version:

image

but I really have done:

 1101  git reset --hard v3.1-latest
 1102  ./autogen.sh
 1103  ./configure
 1104  make dist

Remark: My libsearpc-3.1.0.tar.gz was compiled at 12. Jul. 2019
