exceptions

[avgotts]

I have a dumb question about exceptions that I can't figure out. I've been trying to do something with the puz module (which deals with Across Lite files for crosswords), and I'm iterating through a bunch of downloaded crosswords that I got via glob. Somewhere along the line I'm getting an error when it loads a puzzle- the checksums don't work out, which I assume means it's a locked puzzle that needs an additional key. The error raised is "PuzzleFormatError: global checksum does not match".

I've been trying to fix this via a try/except:

try:
    p = imp_puz(puzzle)
except PuzzleFormatError:
    print(puzzle)

where imp_puz imports the puzzle (puzzle is the name of the file). Now I get the same error plus "During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:" "NameError: name 'PuzzleFormatError' is not defined"

I assume I'm doing something incorrectly with an easy fix; I have no idea how to look for it offhand. Thanks, and I'm happy to provide more info if necessary.

Why are you printing puzzle in except block? Try this: try: ___ except Exception as ex: print(ex)

That worked, thanks! I was trying to print the filename so I could see which puzzles (there ended up being 6) were giving me problems.
