Repair A Python Script

In Progress Posted 7 years ago Paid on delivery
In Progress

The person who applies for this task needs an excellent working knowledge of Python using the BOTO library and AWS S3 as well as FTP using Python and basic server management.

A working knowledge of Wordpress and PHP would be helpful as this project may branch out into other modules at a later date so we are keen to find someone who we can stay in touch with. We would prefer someone in the UK because time differences and language differences can make things difficult, plus it might be necessary to meet up to discuss this project.

We have a Python script which is designed to update a MySQL Database which is used as part of a custom search engine.

It was moved from a server where it was working perfectly.

The new server is almost identical, but the script is hanging at a certain point. (FTP log in )

What the script is intended to do is:

Run Once every day using cron.

1. Log into 2 remote FTP accounts ( one after the other )

2. Retrieve updated zip files from each server (which are organized into dated folders)

3. Download zip to our server

4. Unzip files

5. Process XML files sending data to our MySQL database (used for searching)

6. Upload images to AWS S3 ( using the boto library)

7. Delete remaining files

8. Send a Success email.
