AttributeError: the 'module' object does not have the 'ZipFile' attribute

as I said, this is a very strange question. Hope you guys could help me resolve this issue thanks

following code:

import os
import zipfile

filename = "E:\\test.zip"
currdir = "E:\\vpn\\"

os.chdir(currdir)

tfile = zipfile.ZipFile(filename, 'w')
files = os.listdir(currdir)
for f in files:
    tfile.write(f)

for f in tfile.namelist():
    print "added %s"%f

tfile.close()

error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\pydemo\src\gzip\zipfile.py", line 7, in <module>
    import zipfile
  File "C:\pydemo\src\gzip\zipfile.py", line 14, in <module>
tfile = zipfile.ZipFile.(filename, 'w')
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ZipFile'

You named your script zipfile.py, which means it is trying to import itself. Change the file name basically to something else.

Your module imports itself as a zipfile. Call it something other than zipfile.py
