File size is zero
<p>I'm trying to write a simple script that looks at various files and manipulates them depending on file size, but I've tried both :</p>

<pre><code>os.stat(path + fname).st_size
</code></pre>

<p>and</p>

<pre><code>os.path.getsize(path + fname)
</code></pre>

<p>but both return a result of '0'.  I'm running Kubuntu but the file system is NTFS formatted, could this be the problem, or does anyone have any reason why this may be happening?</p>

<p>** EDIT **</p>

<p>Somehow all my files have been emptied of all their data.  Please ignore this, the filesize is being reported correct. </p>
