Further, on debug i got to know in tarfile.py (library file) function open(
) (Line 1147) where it is return the file attributes is failing, I am not
able to make out the exact reason, why it is failing in 64-bit M/c , but the
same is working in 32-bit M/c
I have attached the part code with the mail,
File: tarfile.py
Line:1147
if mode in ("r", "r:*"):
# Find out which *open() is appropriate for opening the file.
for comptype in cls.OPEN_METH:
func = getattr(cls, cls.OPEN_METH[comptype])
print "func",func
if fileobj is not None:
saved_pos = fileobj.tell()
try:
print "func1",func(name, "r", fileobj)
return func(name, "r", fileobj)
except (ReadError, CompressionError):
if fileobj is not None:
fileobj.seek(saved_pos)
continue
raise ReadError("file could not be opened successfully")
I have added few prints for debugging, please ignore it.
output :
tarfile.is_tarfile(tar)
func <bound method type.gzopen of <class 'tarfile.TarFile'>>
func1 func <bound method type.taropen of <class 'tarfile.TarFile'>>
func1 func <bound method type.bz2open of <class 'tarfile.TarFile'>>
func1
False
As u can see, the "func(name, "r", fileobj)", is returning none.
The same test output in 32bit Mc:
tarfile.is_tarfile(tar)
func <bound method type.gzopen of <class 'tarfile.TarFile'>>
func1 <tarfile.TarFile object at 0xb7f028ac>
True
Any information on this will be very useful.
If i am wrong. Please correct me
Thank u
