Kevin Hendricks <kevin.hendri...@sympatico.ca> added the comment: If you read the bug report it explains how to generate a testcase (i.e. append any data to the end of a zip archive)
Here it is as a step by step process 1. simply take any working zip and call it testcase.zip 2. do the following: echo "\r\n" >> testcase.zip If you run "unzip -t" on testcase.zip it will pass with flying colors and will properly unzip on every piece of zip software I have tried. However if you try to use python to copy the zip archive to another zip archive python ./zipfix.py testcase.zip junk.zip Error Occurred File is not a zip file All because of the appended carriage return / linefeed at the end. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10694> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
