Hi, I am trying to build python script which retreives and analyze the various URLs and generate reports.
Some of the urls are like "http://xyz.com/test.html.gz", I am trying to retreive it using urllib2 library and then using gzip library trying to decompress it. ex - server_url is say - http://xyz.com/test.html.gz logpage = urllib2.urlopen(server_url) html_content = cal_logpage.read() logpage.close() gz_tmp = open("gzip.txt.gz", "w") gz_tmp.write(html_content) gz_tmp.close() f = gzip.open("gzip.txt.gz", "rb") file_content = f.read() f.close() #return the resulting html content. return html_content on executing the code, its giving zlib.error - Error -3 while decompressing: invalid distance too far back the same URL I am able to retreive in proper html page format from browser please let me know if I am doing something wrong here, or is there any other better way to do so.
