Why are you copying the file before you try to unzip it?

Open the file in binary mode:

      f = open(filename, "rb")

Again, open the file in binary mode ("wb").

Not essential to the problem you are encountering, but you want 
shutil.copyfile(). Also, have a look at the shutil.copyfileobj() 
implementation to learn how to properly copy a file in chunks of limited 
size.

#10337 — RE: reading zipfile; problem using raw buffer

Thanks all,  adding the 'rb' and 'wb' solved that test case.

The reason I read the file "the hard way" is that I'm testing why I
cannot unzip a buffer passed in a file upload using django.

While not actually using a file, pointing out the need for the binary
option gave me the clue I needed to upload the file

All is good and moving on to the next crisis ;)

Fred.
