Hi,
Good Morning.
1.
This is regarding installing python in 64-bit linux pc. one of the issue,
which we were talking earlier. It was recommended to install python with
32-bit gcc compiler in 64-bit m/c.
step:
while installing python in 64-bit m/c, try using
export CC='gcc -m32'
./configure --prefix = "installing directory" ; make ; make install
2.
coming to extracting tarfile :
I am able to extract a *.tar file using tarfile.extractall( ) .The same when
i try extracting *.tar.gz,check tarfile.is_tarfile( ) returning false. On
debugging, i found in ../lib/tarfile.py + 1148 (open function) where it
checks the file type and returns the file attributes is failing. Exactly
telling " *return func(name, "r", fileobj)* " This line is failing or
returning none. This happens only in 64-bit linux m/c. It is working in
32-bit linux and windows m/c.
3.on other Method,
i open the file using tarfile.open(*.tar.gz,"r:gz"). I am getting an error
as "ImportError: No module named zlib".
>>import tarfile
>>tarfile.open("*.tar.gz","r:gz")
ImportError: No module named zlib
complete error text ill post, once i reach office.
4. currently i am using,
os.path.isfile("*.tar.gz")
os.system("tar -C [some directory] -xvf *.tar.gz")
Any input on these issues will be very helpful.
Thank u.
