I am getting the following error message:

OverflowError: Python int too large to convert to C int

Is this a python3 specific problem? What goes wrong in multiprocessing lib?

  • You should post at least some piece of code; best is some executable piece of code – Alex Nov 25 '16 at 14:43

This problem tends to happen when mixing 64-bit and 32-bit programs, in this case, the main python program is running in a 64-bit environment but making a function call to a compiled library or program that only handles 32-bit.

Try running your script in a 32-bit version of python OR find out the failing point and find 64-bit versions of it, which is a lot harder. (maybe one of the c-compiled libraries "selectors.py" is using to get the file descriptor event list)
