This is to account for the case that an exception is being raised in the start_requests method. In
scrapy/crawler.py:Crawler/crawl
the values yielded are left unused.scrapy/commands/crawl.py:Command.run
does nothing with the deferred that is yielded. This fix checks if an error is raised and callssys.exit(1)
if it is. The stack-trace leading to the error is also logged.This has been tracked in issue 1231 and 1241.
