exceptions.enable() not sending events?

[zooba]

I've been trying the unhandled exception filter and it doesn't seem to be sending events.

My code is roughly:

>>> from applicationinsights.exceptions import enable
>>> enable("my-key-goes-here")
>>> 1 / 0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero

There's a visible pause before the exception message appears, which I assume is the flush() call in the handler, but the messages never appear in the portal. (Adding trace messages also shows that the handler is being called, but I didn't look any deeper than that.)

By contrast, if I create a client with the same key and call tc.track_exception() within an except block, the message appears in the portal in less than a minute.

(Using Python 3.4.2)

I've tried the sample code above (with an actual key instead of the placeholder) and could not repro the issue. Here is what I'm seeing:

The code

Fiddler trace of the request (endpoint accepted the message)

The UI about a minute later

The flush() does seem to cause a pause; we'll have to investigate why exactly that is, but as for the enable() method, it seems to be working as intended.

I think flush() causing a pause is fine - the process is about to terminate and the send needs to complete.

It seems to be fine now, so maybe the service was having its own issues at the time I was trying it.
