#19708 closed Bug (fixed)

django.utils.timezone.override helper may raise AttributeError

Reported by: Rafal Stozek Owned by: Aymeric Augustin
Component: Uncategorized Version: 1.4
Severity: Normal Keywords: timezone utils
Cc: Triage Stage: Accepted
Has patch: no Needs documentation: no
Needs tests: no Patch needs improvement: no
Easy pickings: no UI/UX: no

Description

Here's a simple test case:

>>> from django.utils import timezone
>>> timezone.deactivate()
>>> with timezone.override(None):
...     pass
... 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 2, in <module>
  File "/django/django/utils/timezone.py", line 204, in __exit__
    del _active.value
AttributeError: value

This happens in __exit__() method of override helper when current timezone is deactivated and we try to use override with None argument (which is valid - it means that we want to deactivate current timezone).

The fix looks good.

I'm less convinced by the setUp and tearDown methods you added. As far as I can tell wrapping the whole test in:

try:
    ...
finally:
    deactivate()

would suffice.

The tests in the PR won't run without pytz. (EDIT: in fact, they do, but there's a typo: TIMEZONE vs. TIME_ZONE).

I'll modify the tests and commit your fix.
