Start debugging with these two steps --
1) Add this just after "for name in z.namelist():"
   print name

That way you can tell which file is failing.

2) You can't tell whether you're getting an error on the write or the
read because you've got two statements combined into one line. Change
this --
   outfile.write(z.read(name))
to this --
   data = z.read(name)
   outfile.write(data)


Good luck

The problem found in outfile.Write. The error code is here and is
happening when few of the files are already unzipped from the zip file

>>> T:\applications\tst\py\Zip_Process
>>> drg100.aux
>>> <zipfile.ZipFile instance at 0x00E2F648>
>>> <open file 'drg100.aux', mode 'wb' at 0x00E12608>
>>> drg100.fgdc.htm
