Just to add to the previous post:<br><br> >>foo = Process(target=build_worker.main, args=(build_q,uid,))<br><br>is the statement I want to replace (because it is unreliable), with something other that reactor.spawnprocess as there is no reactor in the calling script.<br>

</div>You didn't give a long enough example to be certain, but that looks like<br>
multiprocessing.Process syntax. The multiprocessing module does not<br>
work reliably with Twisted. Neither does the subprocess module.<br>
<br>
You should use the equivalent Twisted process functionality, shown at<br>

<br>
There's also <a href="https://launchpad.net/ampoule" target="_blank">https://launchpad.net/ampoule</a>, but for the small example<br>
you show, the basic Twisted process stuff should be fine.<br>
