using the is_zipfile() method. All good so far. However, under some
circumstances, I am unable to later read the file and extract its
contents. As soon as a I attempt to instantiate a new ZipFile
instance, I receive an error regarding Bad Magic number. In the past,
I've seen that when trying to use a .pyc module, created with one
Python version, using another Python version. But in this case, I
created the zip file under Python 2.4.2 and tried to open it under
Python 2.4.2 as well. Any ideas on what to do?
Maybe try posting the full traceback so we can see the "Bad Magic
Number" error you are getting...
