Re: Problem untaring python2.5
You might want to try an all-python implementation for sanity testing. I haven't tested this snippet much. I am not sure it handles nested files all that well. import tarfile tar = tarfile.open(TarTest.tar.gz2, r:gz) # other options: r:bz2, and ?? file_list = tar.getnames() import os os.mkdir('new_dir') # write the files out to new files for fname in tar.getnames(): # extract/decompress the data of each file data = tar.extractfile(fname).read() # optionally change the filename new_file = new_dir/ + fname print File %s written! % new_file # write the decompressed data to a file fout = open(new_file, w) fout.write(data) fout.close() # done, close the tar file ... tar.close() On Dec 19, 12:16 pm, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, It is not possible to give sharp hints without more relevant information like: - What is your platform? - Which version of python? - What is the version of: $tar--version (GNUtar, other proprietarytar, according to my personal experience, AIXtarmay fail) - Is your disk full or do you have the correct permissions with your current user? ++ Sam Hi Sam , I am using windows server 2003, python2.5.1 and version 1.16 of tar and as per disk full issues i dont think that my systems hard disk is full -- Shane Geiger IT Director National Council on Economic Education [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 402-438-8958 | http://www.ncee.net Leading the Campaign for Economic and Financial Literacy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You may need to log on as an admin. If those /Mac/. files are the only ones that untar complained about and it unpacked all the other files, then AFAIK you don't have a problem -- that stuff is Macintosh-specific. Otherwise I suggest you try another means of unpacking the archive. I have downloaded the tgz file and unpacked it successfully with 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) -- it should hack the tar.bz2 file also. HTH, John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Most likely that's because tar can't create the directory either. Do you have write permission for the directory where you want to unpack to? Can you create the directory Python-2.5 by hand (mkdir Python-2.5)? Florian -- http://www.florian-diesch.de/ --- ** Hi! I'm a signature virus!
