Hello, all. I am currently working on a Django application that uses sorl-thumbnail( http://code.google.com/p/sorl-thumbnail/) to do some image thumbnailing for us, which is using PIL to interact with the images that it thumbnails.
Unfortunately, we seem to have encountered an intermittent problem: occasionally, PIL will raise an IOError: unable to identify image file with the files that we are trying to have it process. I did some digging into PIL, and determined that the error being raised is coming from JpegImagePlugin.py, at line 283(where a SyntaxError is raised if there was no marker found). I added some debugging statements around the error to see what the value of i was, and the first value that this exception occurs on is "8224". I am fairly certain that this issue is occuring because of something to do with the EXIF data embedded in the jpeg's that we are trying to work with; I have uploaded the jpegs and the EXIF data I could extract with ExifTool( http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/) here: http://liftslice3.com/PIL/alexken.jpg http://liftslice3.com/PIL/alexken.exif http://liftslice3.com/PIL/DSC_0080-1_copy.jpg http://liftslice3.com/PIL/DSC_0080-1_copy.exif Does anyone know what might be going wrong here, or why PIL might be having trouble with these images? Thanks, Luke
