The python assertion error that’s causing make to fail is happening on line 56 of limitprocessor_identifier_ipreversedns_test.py:

 

        self.assertEqual(

            ident.evaluate({ "requester": "8.8.8.8" }),

            True)

 

This looks like one of several reverse DNS tests that will fail every time on my system since I am only permitted to query internal DNS servers.  Can you recommend a work around please?

 

The easiest thing to do would be to remove that file entirely.  The test infrastructure can handle that.

 

Other than the DNS test (which can be directed to query a specific server), everything in pScheduler uses the system’s resolver.  Some of the DNS-related tests in the current code have dependencies on certain FQDNs over which we have no control being configured a certain way; those have been removed starting in 4.4.
