BTW, I used this
cp /var/log/syslog ./in-file.log
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import io
with open("in-file.log","r") as infile:
for line in infile:
print(line)
I got a different error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test.py", line 4, in <module>
for line in infile:
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/codecs.py", line 322, in decode
(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd8 in position 897:
invalid continuation byte
However, that doesn't have anything to do with your problem.
