Bug #110856, was updated on 2000-Aug-01 14:37
Here is a current snapshot of the bug.
Project: Python
Category: None
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Bug Group: Irreproducible
Priority: 5
Summary: Page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL (PR#186)
Details: Jitterbug-Id: 186
Submitted-By: hauser@eos.ncsu.edu
Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2000 08:36:26 -0500 (EST)
Version: 1.5.2
OS: windows 95
I am new to Python and am having a problem on Windows 95 any time I use the
Tkinter module. An example follows:
>>>from Tkinter import *
>>>t = Button(None, {'text': 'Test', Pack: {}})
>>>q = Button(None, {'text': 'Quit', 'command': t.quit, Pack: {}})
>>>t.mainloop()
The window comes up and seems to work. Clicking on the 'Quit' button returns to
the Python screen. Then:
>>>Ctrl-D ->message comes up that illegal operation has been perforned:
Page fault in KERNEL32.DLL at 016f:6ff79ff3, computer hangs and has to be hard
booted.
Everything else seems to work, the idle program comes up and everything is OK
until I try to exit and the same problem happens. If I don't use Tkinter I
don't have the problem and any time with Tkinter I make a window and exit from
the window, and try to exit Python the same error appears.
I have found several references to Page faults in KERNEL32 in the Bug reports
but have not seen any solutions. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

John,
I am afraid I can't reproduce your problem, and I've never heard
of this type of behavior before.
My best guess is that some other Windows app that you have installed
is causing this behavior; this is basically impossible to debug.
I suggest that you post your problem description to comp.lang.python;
maybe someone there has a clever idea. If you find a solution, please
reply to this message, leaving the subject intact.
In the mean time, I;ll keep your bug report in the "irreproducuble"
category.
Thanks,
--Guido van Rossum

Guido,
Thanks very much for your help. With your suggestion I have traced the
problem to a file CSINJECT.exe which was being loaded on startup. This is
a file associated with the Norton Clean Sweep utility. After removing it
from my startup file, everything works fine. I guess it was loaded when I
installed Norton Utilities and I have no idea what it does.
Thanks again for you thoughts.

Could be caused by another Windows app?
