ConfigParser.MissingSectionHeaderError:File contains no section headers.

Today, using Configparser to parse an INI file, report the following error:

    Config.read (logFile)  File "C:\Python26\lib\ConfigParser.py", line 286, in read    self._read (FP, filename)  File "C:\Python26\lib\ConfigParser.py", line 482, in _read    raise Missingsectionheadererror (Fpname, Lineno, line) Missingsectionheadererror:file contains no section headers.file:c:\test\test.ini, line:1 ' \xff\xfe\r\x00\n '

The analysis is due to the file encoding method, the adjustment code as follows, the problem solved:

def test ():    logFile = R ' C:\test\test.ini '    config = configparser.configparser ()      CONFIG.READFP ( Codecs.open (LogFile, "R", "Utf_16"))    print config.sections ()

This file is Unicode encoded, so fill in "utf_16" here, and modify the parameter if it is in a different encoding format.
