Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Chris AtLee (catlee) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: bz2 RuntimeError when decompressing file Initial Comment: The following code: echo -n Testing123 | bzip2 > test.bz2 python -c "import bz2; lines = bz2.BZ2File('test.bz2').readlines()" produces this output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in ? RuntimeError: wrong sequence of bz2 library commands used Tested on Python 2.4.1 (debian unstable - April 1 2005), and Python 2.3.5 (debian unstable - May 26 2005) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Date: 2005-04-28 02:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=80475 The looks like correct behavior to me. The test.bz2 file is not in a valid bz2 format. I suspect that you've misread the BZ2File API which is intended for reading and writing uncompressed data to and from a file in a bz2 format (where the data is stored in compressed form). If this interpretation of the bug report is correct, please mark as not-a-bug and close. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1191043&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
