Read / Write image file

[codecraig]

I have a image file on my pc, say a .jpg. Basically I want to setup a
client/server socket, and I want the client to read in the jpg and send
it to the server, where the server can write that data into a new file
on the server.

I tried just doing something like..

x = open("abc.jpg")
y = x.read()
tmp = open("newFile.jpg", "w")
tmp.write(y)
tmp.close()
x.close()

....but that doesn't give me a copy of abc.jpg

any ideas? Thanks

Give us more details. The code above works well for me. (python2.3).

x = open("abc.jpg", 'rb')

well on the server, if I have,

x = sock.recv(1024) ....and the client sends more than 1024 bytes...the
server won't receive it all right? So I am wondering, how do I setup
the server to handle some unknown amount of data?

Note, in previous post it should have been, x = sock.recv(1024) not x =
server.recv(1024)

thanks
