"SyntaxError: cannot have both 'except' and 'except*' on the same 'try'" traceback point to a confusing place #99153
Description
Bug report
Given the following codes:
try:
...
except* Exception:
...
except Exception: # SyntaxError here
...
# but traceback point hereTraceback:
File "main.py", line 8
# but traceback point here
SyntaxError: cannot have both 'except' and 'except*' on the same 'try'
and:
try:
...
except* Exception:
...
except Exception: # SyntaxError here
...
def next_scope(): # but traceback point here
...Traceback:
File "main.py", line 8
def next_scope(): # but traceback point here
^^^
SyntaxError: cannot have both 'except' and 'except*' on the same 'try'
The traceback points to a confusing place (the last line of the file or the beginning of the next structure statement) rather than the location of the syntax error.
The traceback I expect is:
File "main.py", line 5
except Exception: # SyntaxError here
^^^^^^
SyntaxError: cannot have both 'except' and 'except*' on the same 'try'
