How can I tell where my python script is hanging?

Question

So I\'m debugging my python program and have encountered a bug that makes the program hang, as if in an infinite loop. Now, I had a problem with an infinite loop before, but

Answer 1

i = 0
for t in threading.enumerate():
    if i != 0:# and t.getName() != 'Thread-1':
        print t.getName()
        t._Thread__stop()
    i += 1

Once you know the names of the threads; start re-executing your script and filter them down, not stopping them from being aborted. i=0 conditional prevents the main thread from being aborted.

I suggest going through and naming all your threads; such as: Thread(target=self.log_sequence_status, name='log status')

This code should be placed at the end of the main program that starts up the run-away process
