Export producing 0 byte .csv file

Open dwids opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Thanks for updating the code. I'm now returning to my 'export all my many .caf files to .csv files' project.

I'm using what I assume is the latest version of Cathy.py (2022/09/14 is the date of the most recent comment in the source). I'm on Windows 10, using PowerShell to invoke it via: python .\cathy.py export .\DOC_001.caf

It completes without error, but produces a zero byte (empty) DOC_001.csv . If it helps "python .\cathy.py search Egypt" tells me it is "Skipping DOC_001.caf for search because of archive bit" . It may somehow be related to that. Yes, this .caf file was from indexing a CD/DVD ROM so the Archive Bit was set (and couldn't be turned off in Cathy, AFAIK). Thanks.

The archive bit has no role in the export. Which version of Python are you using?

Thanks for the quick reply. "Python 3.10.6 (tags/v3.10.6:9c7b4bd, Aug 1 2022, 21:53:49) [MSC v.1932 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32"

If I can provide any dumps/debug info, just let me know how to do it....
