Why does this python script work on Ubuntu but not Raspbian? -

a friend , created following script utilizing beautifulsoup html of job page, append job array, file, email job in human-readable format ourselves. script works on ubuntu, on raspberry pi, uses raspbian, doesn't work.

the message see when running terminal is: 'end of file' , 'start write...' lines in code. there no error messages when running pi, nothing gets appended array , no emails sent.

can take look? thanks.
