Hello, I have the script that make a backup file (this process is ok), but now i wish compress the file on tar file format. But i have problem syntax in the line of the tar function.
The error is [root@master ~]# python bkp_db.py File "bkp_db.py", line 19 tar = tarfile.open(dumpfile)+'.tar.gz','w:gz') ^ Note: The 'dumpfile' is the variable for my dump generate with format db_02-27-14 ...... tar = tarfile.open(dumpfile)+'.tar.gz','w:gz') tar.add(os.path.join(dumpfile), arcname=dumpfile) tar.close() ........ Wath is the correct sintax? Thanks. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
