Script tool fails after first execution

Hi All,

Got an odd one... I feel like I've come across something similar before but it's got me stumped right now.

Quick Summary:

The script tool runs successfully outside of ArcMap/Catalog via python CLI
The script tool runs successfully the FIRST time run from the toolbox inside ArcMap/ArcCatalog
The script tool FAILS every time after the first until ArcMap/ArcCatalog is closed and restarted
The function in the script tool runs successfully if called multiple times from a second script tool during the same execution but then fails with the same pattern when run consecutively.
The failure is a critical level exception exiting the script:

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: super() argument 1 must be type, not None

Details:

The script tool integrates data between a feature class and an external API behind an AzureAD authentication.

I've installed the official Microsoft library:

c:\Python27\ArcGIS10.6\Scripts\pip.exe install msal

The failure is not in the actual call for an authorization token but simply in the init constructor of the 'AD App' class so I'm able to strip it down to a very basic example which is attached in the zip file:

1. doauth.py - script file with function that initializes the 'AD App' and returns a true/false if the app class is created

2. doauth2.py - script file that calls the 'create app' function inside doauth.py twice in a row

This was an attempt to see if it's something with multiple instances of the app class being created or if it's something specific with how ArcMap/Catalog are running the script itself.... appears to be the latter

3. toolbox.tbx - toolbox with both scripts attached as tools

To repo:

1. install msal (see above)

2. CLI tests (execution is successful, no exceptions throw, simple text output returned)

c:\Python27\ArcGIS10.6\Scripts\python.exe doauth.py

c:\Python27\ArcGIS10.6\Scripts\python.exe doauth2.py

3. Open ArcCatalog

Browse to toolbox

Execute DoAuth tool - success, close window

Execute DoAuth tool - fail

Close ArcCatalog

Repeat

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance
