Hi all, Using a python cgi script such as the one below to handle uploaded binary files will end up with a truncated file (truncates when it hits ^Z) on Windows systems. On linux systems the code works and the file is not truncated.
One solution for Windows is to use the -u flag, i.e. #!C:\Python\python.exe -u Is there another fix that doesn't require python to be run in unbuffered mode? What performance hits would I expect for running in unbuffered mode? Best regards, Cameron. Example code: import cgi, os.path as path form = cgi.FieldStorage() new_file = form.getvalue("new_file",None) if new_file is not null: fname = path.split(form["new_file"].filename)[-1] fle = open(fname,"wb") fle.write(new_file) fle.close() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
