I'm working on a project to add point locations to a map using the arcpy.MakeXYEventLayer_managment tool in Python.  This tool is acting unpredictable and causing a fatal EOFError (End Of File) exception every other time I run my script.  Half the time it completes normally with no modifications.  I've tried different inputs to the MakeXYEventLayer tool consisting of a .csv file, .dbf file, and a table view.  None of these seem to make a difference.  This is a current short snippet of the latest attempt:   import arcpy basePath = 'C:\Users\Jason\Documents\SchoolStuff\GEO 4393C' workspacePath = basePath+'\FinalProject\Project.gdb' arcpy.env.workspace = workspacePath arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True locationsFilePath = basePath+'\FinalProject\Locations\MiniGolfLocations.xls' locationsTable = 'MiniGolfLocations' arcpy.ExcelToTable_conversion(locationsFilePath,locationsTable,'MiniGolfLocations') print 'Done converting spreadsheet to table' arcpy.MakeXYEventLayer_management(locationsTable,'LONGITUDE','LATITUDE','USpoints') print 'Done creating xy event layer' arcpy.CopyFeatures_management('USpoints',workspacePath+'\USpoints') print 'Done creating USpoints'‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Has anyone else run into this problem before or have any suggestions?  ...
