I just tried using the parser with Python 2.7 and Windows 7 64-bit, and I got the following error:
File "C:\Python27\qrteparser-webservice-master\parser.py", line 27, in
main(*sys.argv[1:])

File "C:\Python27\lib\gzip.py", line 94, in init
fileobj = self.myfileobj = builtin.open(filename, mode or 'rb')
ValueError: Invalid mode ('wtb')
The parser produced an output file containing some of the embedded data, but that's it. I googled the error and found this, which suggests that it's a Python version issue. This seems strange since I'm sure I've used the parser with 2.7 before without any issues, and you mention using 2.7 in the instructions here.
I then tried the parser in Python 3 and didn't get an error. The output file looks great except that there are additional blank rows between each row of data.
Any idea what's going on here? Am I doing something wrong? I can email you the files if you'd like them.
Sorry, I just realised that the Python 3 output is fine when I read it into R. So to get rid of the extra blank lines in Excel, I just wrote the file back out as csv from R.
