The user reported another file with this problem, but this manifestation raises the following stack trace. ( which is better than a core dump, I suppose.. )

This happens with hd5 1.6.5 or 1.8alpha , with pytables 1.4 or 2.0beta on linux. from tables import * fp = openFile( 'TRANSACTIONS248.h5' ) print fp.root._meta_.variables.read() The 'root._meta_.variables' node is a VLArray of type 'ObjectAtom' and contains a picked Python dictionary, just meta data about the data. The .h5 is 24meg ( otherwise I could attach it to this email ). Is there an ftp site I can upload it to when you can get it from? thanks, Stefan Kuzminski __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
