Issue #3361 has been updated by Peter Cock.

Status changed from New to Rejected
Priority changed from Immediate to Normal

The example seems to be working now.

Changing priority to normal, and closing bug (as rejected since this was a transient NCBI problem).

Bug #3361: RE: Error finding lineage info for an organism
https://redmine.open-bio.org/issues/3361

Author: James-Alex Matthews
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal

Category: Main Distribution
Target version: Not Applicable

Though I've successfully used the tool many time, the following code now generates an empty list:

handle = Entrez.efetch(db = "Taxonomy", id = tax_id, retmode = "xml")   #Query taxonomy database with taxon id
lineage_record = Entrez.read(handle)    #Read out handle
>> Problem: Record is empty

I've even run the example code from the Biopython tutorial/cookbook:
handle = Entrez.efetch(db="Taxonomy", id="158330", retmode="xml")
records = Entrez.read(handle)
>> Same problem: Record is empty

Yelp!!!!!!
