I get the following when running a script.
TypeError: argument 1 must be string or read-only character buffer, not _sre.SRE_Pattern
Here is the script I am trying to run. I am trying to verify that my search is returning what I am trying to search for, but due to the error I can verify it.
import re
log = open('audit.log') # Opens audit log
log2 = open('timaudit.log','w') for line in log: line =re.compile(r""" \w #match any alphanumeric character \Audit report for user+ \User reported as inactive+ """, re.VERBOSE) line.search('Audit report for user () User reported as inactive') log2.write(line) log.close()
log2.close()
Thank you,
