[issue35794] test_posix.py test failure

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com> added the comment:

To be clear, only os.posix_spawnp() (with "P") fails:

$ PATH=/root ./python -m test -v test_posix 
...
ERROR: test_no_such_executable (test.test_posix.TestPosixSpawnP)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/vstinner/prog/python/master/Lib/test/test_posix.py", line 1522, in test_no_such_executable
    pid = self.spawn_func(no_such_executable,
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'no_such_executable'


Test with os.posix_spawn() is fine:

$ PATH=/root ./python -m test -v test_posix -m test.test_posix.TestPosixSpawn.test_no_such_executable
...
test_no_such_executable (test.test_posix.TestPosixSpawn) ... ok
...
Tests result: SUCCESS
