Hi all,
I am new to python and want to create a process to unzip large numbers of
zip files I get from a SOAP application. The files all have a ZIP extention
and can be unzipped using WinZip.
However when I try opening the files using zlib or zipfile modules I get the
following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#88>", line 1, in -toplevel-
file = zipfile.ZipFile("c:\\chessy.zip", "r")
File "C:\Python24\lib\zipfile.py", line 210, in __init__
self._GetContents()
File "C:\Python24\lib\zipfile.py", line 230, in _GetContents
self._RealGetContents()
File "C:\Python24\lib\zipfile.py", line 242, in _RealGetContents
raise BadZipfile, "File is not a zip file"
BadZipfile: File is not a zip file
The code I used in python was:
import zipfile
file = zipfile.ZipFile("c:\\chessy.zip", "r")
I tried to do the same with a zip file I created using WinZip and it worked
fine. I have been searching the web for about two days and haven't found
anything helpful.
Can anyone help with this? I have the zip I can send, however I tried to
send this message with it attached and it didn't get posted.
Cheers,
