Hello,

I am facing some issue when copying or moving file

f=open('/tmp/file1')
s=open('/tmp/file2')

for line in f:
  if 'match' not in line:
     s.write(line)

import shutil
shutil.move(s, f)

With above prog I am getting error
TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need sting or buffer, file found

What that means and how I can resolve it.

Regards,
Dj
