File not read to end

Hi,

I'm trying to write a simple log parsing program. I noticed that it
isn't reading my log file to the end.

My log is around 200,000 lines but it is stopping at line 26,428. I
checked that line and there aren't any special characters.

This is the file reading code segment that I'm using:
    sysFile=open(sysFilename,'r')
    lineCount = 0
    for line in sysFile:
        lineCount +=1
        print str(lineCount) + " -- " + line

I also stuck this same code bit into a test script and it was able to
parse the entire log without problem. Very quirky.

This is my first foray from Perl to Python so I appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.
