def getlog(activity,type,endtype): log = open("MultivertLog.txt","r") for line in log.readlines(): ac = re.compile(activity)

This creates an re object so you want to call the findall method of the ac object

fac = re.findall(ac, line)

So this becomes fac = ac.findall(line)

Same with the ty and ex bits further down.
