What's wrong with my except? [duplicate]
You use python3 and in python3 the raise syntax no longer accepts comma-separated arguments.
Use as instead:
except getopt.GetoptError as e:This form is also backwards-compatible with 2.6 and 2.7.
Your syntax is invalid for catching the exception
You should have written except getopt.GetoptError as e: instead of except getopt.GetoptError, e:
