I am running a script which extracts the information from debian packages and saves it in a database.
After extracting information from about 100 packages an error occurs. The error is "can't start a new thread" Why am I facing this error? What can be the possible solution to it?
This is the code used to save the data :
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'
Just like Description, there are around !2 more properties of the package which are saved in a similar way.
This is the full traceback that I get when the error occurs :-
