Testsand Python interpreter session crashed

[JZam]

I'm running a python step in teststand that the only thing that is doing is trying to ssh to a specific IP, if this IP is not present in the network python will give you an error related to "socket.timeout: timed out" which is expected, the problem is when you try to run any python step again you'll get the following message: 

Error: Python interpreter session crashed. If a console is displayed, closing the console will crash the interpreter. Complete all the executions, unload all modules and retry executing the sequence file.[Error Code: -17500, Operation Failed. ]

In this case you would need to stop your sequence and unload all the modules to continue running, is there a way to avoid this problem and keep getting any error that could happen in python?

Teststand 2019 and Python 3.7

Thanks

Hey JZam,

What are you doing in your module call? Call a Method?

I got the same error and for me it was because I had some "test code" outside my function definition. As soon as I deleted that, it was fine.

Cheer, Niko

In my case I found one of the import libraries was not working ok,

Try commenting import lines until you find the one making it crash
