I'm writing a simple web server in python using the BaseHTTPServer library. I can serve text content (ie html pages) with ease, but im running into troubles when i try to serve images. The image gets corrupted in transit and when I manually download the image from the website and look at it using a hex editior it appears that the first 60 (or first 3C in hex if it makes a helps) characters are missing.
My code looks like this:
def do_GET(s):
# code that determines that yes this is an image
s.send_response(200)
s.send_header("Content-type", "image/jpeg")
s.end_headers
fileObj = open("1.jpg","rb") # file is harcoded until i get images being served correctly
image = fileObj.read()
s.wfile.write(image)
