[python] Error: Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Im new in python and am getting a strange error:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

When i execute the following code:

  class Workspace(QMainWindow, Ui_MainWindow):
    """ This class is for managing the whole GUI `Workspace'.
        Currently a Workspace is similar to a MainWindow
    """

    def __init__(self):
        #p= subprocess.Popen(["java -Xmx256m -jar bin/HelloWorld.jar"],cwd=r'/home/karen/sphinx4-1.0beta5-src/sphinx4-1.0beta5/', shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, bufsize= 4024)
        try:
            from Queue import Queue, Empty
        except ImportError:
            while True:
    #from queue import Queue, Empty  # python 3.x
                print "error"

        ON_POSIX = 'posix' in sys.builtin_module_names

        def enqueue_output(out, queue):
            for line in iter(out.readline, b''):
                queue.put(line)
            out.close()

        p= Popen(["java -Xmx256m -jar bin/HelloWorld.jar"],cwd=r'/home/karen/sphinx4-1.0beta5-src/sphinx4-1.0beta5/',stdout=PIPE, shell=True, bufsize= 4024)
        q = Queue()
        t = threading.Thread(target=enqueue_output, args=(p.stdout, q))
        #t = Thread(target=enqueue_output, args=(p.stdout, q))
        t.daemon = True # thread dies with the program
        t.start()

# ... do other things here
        def myfunc(q):
            while True:

                try: line = q.get_nowait()
         # or q.get(timeout=.1)
                except Empty:
                    print('Vacio')
                else: # got line
    # ... do something with line

                    print line  


        thread = threading.Thread(target=myfunc, args=(q,))
        thread.start()

This part of code is reading from a program's stdout.When i execute myfunc out of the thread it works ! But when i execute it in the thread fais... Any suggestion?

There is one more reason for such failure which I came to know when mine failed

• You might be working with a lot of data and your RAM is full

This might not apply in this case but it also throws the same error and since this question comes up on top for this error, I have added this answer here.

In my case: I forgot to activate virtualenv

I installed "pip install example" in the wrong virtualenv

It's worth trying faulthandler to identify the line or the library that is causing the issue as mentioned here https://stackoverflow.com/a/58825725/2160809 and in the comments by Karuhanga

faulthandler.enable()
// bad code goes here

or

$ python3 -q -X faulthandler
>>> /// bad cod goes here

In my case I imported pyxlsd module before module wich works with db Mysql. After I did put Mysql module first(upper in code) it became to work like a clock. Think there was some namespace issue.
