Hi,

I am using both Desktop and Server and occasionally get issues with the ZipArchiver failing. I have attached a log file where you can see it at the end.

Python Exception <NameError>: name 'unicode' is not defined

Python is not my forte! Does anybody know what causes this?

Many thanks,

Glenn

First, check that you have the latest version of the ZipArchiver installed, see https://hub.safe.com/publishers/pacific-spatial-solutions/transformers/ziparchiver

Next, check the Python version set in the workspace properties. If it's version 2.7, try setting it to Python 3.7 (or whatever is available in the list), or the other way around.

Thank you for your response, and sorry for the delay! I have upgraded the transformer and will report back if I still encounter issues.

We run everything with Python 3.7+
