Getting error 'NotImplementedError("That compression method is not supported")' when extracting zipfile in python3.9

I have read through the Python documentation about zip files and watched a couple of videos, but everything didn't work. I'm using Kali Linux, so that the password has to be encoded in bytes.
Here is my code, with which I have tried:
import zipfile
import string
import traceback
def try_function(zip, pwd):
try:
zip.extractall(pwd=pwd.encode())
print("Yes")
except TypeError:
print("No")
z = zipfile.ZipFile("test.txt.zip")
pwd_local = "abc"
if __name__ == '__main__':
try_function(z, pwd_local)
But I always get the same error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ZipWorker.py", line 22, in <module>
try_function(z, pwd_list)
File "ZipWorker.py", line 11, in crack
zip.extractall(pwd.encode())
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 1633, in extractall
self._extract_member(zipinfo, path, pwd)
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 1686, in _
extract_member
with self.open(member, pwd=pwd) as source, \
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 1559, in open
return ZipExtFile(zef_file, mode, zinfo, pwd, True)
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 797, in __init__
self._decompressor = _get_decompressor(self._compress_type)
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 698, in
_get_decompressor
_check_compression(compress_type)
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/zipfile.py", line 678, in
_check_compression
raise NotImplementedError("That compression method is not
supported")
NotImplementedError: That compression method is not supported
Does anyone know how to do this? I'm using python3.9.

So I finally find out, why the code above doesn't work.
When you are creating a zipfile with for example 7zip, this zip file will be encrypted.
But the encryption isn't in bytes, it's encrypted in the hashes: AES-256 or ZipCrypto.

Tablib xlsx file badZip file issue

I am getting error on opening xlsx extension file in windows 8 using tablib library.
python version - 2.7.14
error is as follows:
python suit_simple_sheet_product.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "suit_simple_sheet_product.py", line 19, in <module>

raise BadZipfile, "File is not a zip file"
zipfile.BadZipfile: File is not a zip file
path location is as follows =
BASE_PATH = 'C:\Users\anju\Downloads\automate\catalog-5090 fabric detail and price list.xlsx'

Excel .xlsx files are actually zip files. In order for the unzip to work correctly, the file must be opened in binary mode, as such your need to open the file using:
import tablib
BASE_PATH = r'c:\my folder\my_test.xlsx'
data = tablib.Dataset().load(open(BASE_PATH, 'rb').read())
print data
Add r before your string to stop Python from trying to interpret the backslash characters in your path.

Reading password protected Word Documents with zipfile

I am trying to read a password protected word document on Python using zipfile.
The following code works with a non-password protected document, but gives an error when used with a password protected file.
try:
from xml.etree.cElementTree import XML
except ImportError:
from xml.etree.ElementTree import XML
import zipfile
psw = "1234"
WORD_NAMESPACE = '{http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main}'
PARA = WORD_NAMESPACE + 'p'
TEXT = WORD_NAMESPACE + 't'
def get_docx_text(path):
document = zipfile.ZipFile(path, "r")
document.setpassword(psw)
document.extractall()
xml_content = document.read('word/document.xml')
document.close()
tree = XML(xml_content)
paragraphs = []
for paragraph in tree.getiterator(PARA):
texts = [node.text
for node in paragraph.getiterator(TEXT)
if node.text]
if texts:
paragraphs.append(''.join(texts))
return '\n\n'.join(paragraphs)
When running get_docx_text() with a password protected file, I received the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

BadZipfile: File is not a zip file
Does anyone have any advice to get this code to work?

I don't think this is an encryption problem, for two reasons:
Decryption is not attempted when the ZipFile object is created. Methods like ZipFile.extractall, extract, and open, and read take an optional pwd parameter containing the password, but the object constructor / initializer does not.
Your stack trace indicates that the BadZipFile is being raised when you create the ZipFile object, before you call setpassword:
document = zipfile.ZipFile(path, "r")
I'd look carefully for other differences between the two files you're testing: ownership, permissions, security context (if you have that on your OS), ... even filename differences can cause a framework to "not see" the file you're working on.
Also --- the obvious one --- try opening the encrypted zip file with your zip-compatible command of choice. See if it really is a zip file.
I tested this by opening an encrypted zip file in Python 3.1, while "forgetting" to provide a password. I could create the ZipFile object (the variable zfile below) without any error, but got a RuntimeError --- not a BadZipFile exception --- when I tried to read a file without providing a password:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./zf.py", line 35, in <module>
main()
File "./zf.py", line 29, in main
print_checksums(zipfile_name)
File "./zf.py", line 22, in print_checksums
for checksum in checksum_contents(zipfile_name):
File "./zf.py", line 13, in checksum_contents
inner_file = zfile.open(inner_filename, "r")
File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/zipfile.py", line 903, in open
"password required for extraction" % name)
RuntimeError: File apache.log is encrypted, password required for extraction
I was also able to raise a BadZipfile exception, once by trying to open an empty file and once by trying to open some random logfile text that I'd renamed to a ".zip" extension. The two test files produced identical stack traces, down to the line numbers.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./zf.py", line 35, in <module>
main()
File "./zf.py", line 29, in main
print_checksums(zipfile_name)
File "./zf.py", line 22, in print_checksums
for checksum in checksum_contents(zipfile_name):
File "./zf.py", line 10, in checksum_contents
zfile = zipfile.ZipFile(zipfile_name, "r")
File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/zipfile.py", line 706, in __init__
self._GetContents()
File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/zipfile.py", line 726, in _GetContents
self._RealGetContents()
File "/usr/lib64/python3.1/zipfile.py", line 738, in _RealGetContents
raise BadZipfile("File is not a zip file")
zipfile.BadZipfile: File is not a zip file
While this stack trace isn't exactly the same as yours --- mine has a call to _GetContents, and the pre-3.2 "small f" spelling of BadZipfile --- but they're close enough that I think this is the kind of problem you're dealing with.

opening corrupted .tgz in python

I should just unzip RESULT folder inside of output.tgz archive
#!/usr/bin/python
import os, sys, tarfile, gzip
def unZip(self,file, filename,dire):
tar = tarfile.open(filename,"r:gz")
for file in tar.getmembers():
if file.name.startswith("RESULT"):
tar.extract(file,dire)
print 'Done.'
def main():
utilities = ZipUtil()
filename = 'output.tgz'
directory = str(sys.argv[1]);
path = os.path.join(directory, filename)
utilities.unZip(directory,path,directory)
main()
and I'm getting this error
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 1805, in getmembers
self._load() # all members, we first have to
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 2380, in _load
tarinfo = self.next()
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 2315, in next
self.fileobj.seek(self.offset)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/gzip.py", line 429, in seek
self.read(1024)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/gzip.py", line 256, in read

self._read_eof()
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/gzip.py", line 342, in _read_eof
hex(self.crc)))
IOError: CRC check failed 0xccf8af55 != 0x43cb4d43L
There are many questions like this but still now answer for this proble. The file output.tgz is downloaded and it might be corrupted this is why I guess its not working. But is there anyway around to tell tar to open it. THnak a lot!

why won't recursive ftp work in this directory?

I am trying to recursively ftp some files. In the script below, I get an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Debugging info: ftputil 2.6, Python 2.6.5 (linux2)

I have no idea what that means. However, when I change the directory to "/path/dir2" it works and prints out "file.txt".
Here's my directory structures:
/path/dir1/another/file.txt # I get the above error with this path
/path/dir2/another/file.txt # this works fine, even though the directories have the same structure
My script:
import ftputil
ftp = ftputil.FTPHost('ftp.site.com','user','pass')
recursive = ftp.walk("/path/dir1",topdown=True,onerror=None)
for root,dirs,files in recursive:
for name in files:
print name
ftp.close

Is there a symblolic link in /path/dir1/ that points back to /usr/local/web?
If you want to step over this error you could put a try catch block in and log...
ftp = ftputil.FTPHost('ftp.site.com','user','pass')
try:
recursive = ftp.walk("/path/dir1",topdown=True,onerror=None)
for root,dirs,files in recursive:
for name in files:
print name
except Error e:
print "Error: %s occurred" % (e)
ftp.close
the above will catch all errors. you can also import the specific error your getting and do this...
import ftputil.ftp_error.PermanentError as PermanentError
ftp = ftputil.FTPHost('ftp.site.com','user','pass')
try:
recursive = ftp.walk("/path/dir1",topdown=True,onerror=None)
for root,dirs,files in recursive:
for name in files:
print name
except PermanentError e:
print "Permanent Error: %s occurred" % (e)
ftp.close
