Just to add a little bit to the mix, I have started having these
problems since I rebuilt my machine (Xubuntu 11) and I changed the
disc formats to ext4 without even thinking about it ... I was
wondering if maybe that had something to do with it?

Thanks for those suggestions.
I tried something last night before I got your ideas.
1. I added a line to send a copy of the report just to me, 2 lines
before the line where it emails the report to all the recipients.
2. I also added a timer.sleep(5) pause just before the line that
emails the repo

I have a laptop that wakes up and then runs a script that collects
info and sends an email with a spreadsheet (zipped and about 350KB)
report to a number of people. However, every time I get the following
error:
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/smtplib.py", line 343, in getreply
raise SMTPServerDisco
Thanks for the pointer. I'll have a look into it.

My query isn't specific to Python, but some of you might have been in
a similar position and if there are any technical solutions, I'd
prefer to do it in Python.
I have developed an application using Django and the supporting
documentation needs to be multilingual. This isn't at code level,

Thanks for the feedback both. I'll have a look at these.
One of the frustrating things I find about python is that there are so
many modules. There have been times when I've spend ages doing
something and then some has said, "Oh yeah, there is a module for
that".
Anyway. Nearly finished.

I have a list of tuples that indicate a relationship, ie a is related
to b, b is related to c etc etc. What I want to do is cluster these
relationships into groups. An item will only be associated with a
single cluster.

I'm creating excel docs on the fly using XLWT. However, I need to
include filters which I believe can only be done with pywin32.
Does pywin32 use elements from Windows itself, or excel when
dispatching?

This is probably a really silly question but, given the example code
at the bottom, how would I get a single list?
What I currently get is:
('id', 20, 'integer')
('companyname', 50, 'text')
[('focus', 30, 'text'), ('fiesta', 30, 'text'), ('mondeo', 30,
'text'), ('puma', 30, 'text')]
('contact', 5

Thanks!

I have a Windows 7 (64bit AMD) machine and am having quite a lot of

I have a number of threads that write to a database. I have created a

- If one thread hits a lock, do a) all the other threads stop, or b)
just the ones that come to the same lock?

I've just stumbled over this (http://showmedo.com/) and being the very
visual person I am, it seems like it could be a good way to learn
about python. However, before I smack down $60, I wondered if anyone
had any opinions on it. My gut feel is that it could be pretty good.

I want to batch extract files from a directory of zips. The thing is
that the files are excel spreadsheets. I don't want to read them in
python, just dump them as extracted files in another directory.
However, when I do a test the excel file becomes corrupted. Any clues?

I've included a switch to include or exclude the logging to console.
When logging only to file, the script runs fine.
Of course, I still don't understand why dual logging, and specifically
to the console, causes a problem and if anyone has any comments about
the dual output logging code above then
Ok ... this is odd.
I tried gregory's suggestion of redirecting the stdout & stderr to a
text file. This worked. I could see all the logging information.
However, there was no error to see this time ... the application
worked completely without any problems.
I also then tried Jon's suggestion of

logging usually catches all my errors and logs them. I wondered if
logging itself was failing!
