>>> import time >>> time.strptime(time.ctime()) Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ? File "/usr/lib/python2.4/_strptime.py", line 269, in ? _TimeRE_cache = TimeRE() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/_strptime.py", line 188, in __init__ self.locale_time = LocaleTime() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/_strptime.py", line 74, in __init__ self.__calc_weekday() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/_strptime.py", line 94, in __calc_weekday a_weekday = [calendar.day_abbr[i].lower() for i in range(7)] AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'day_abbr' >>> time.ctime() 'Fri Sep 15 19:06:18 2006' The default format used by strptime() should match the output of ctime(). Even when specifying the format I get exactly the same error. I have recently upgraded to gcc 4.1.1 and glibc-2.4-r3. Using python-2.4.3. I am not quite sure what causes this. cheers tim

Logged In: YES user_id=357491 Tested on Python 2.4, 2.5, and trunk and all work for me. Closing as invalid. If you look at the traceback there is an issue with the calendar module in your installation, not with time.strptime() (looks like calendar.day_abbr is missing). I would run test_calendar and see what happens with that. If that test fails then file a bug report on that (and maybe also test_datetime since that is where the calendar module gets its information for the day-abbr).
