@MichaelJackson In your code, I have only replaced the mxd path. But I got an error at the ` lyr.symbologyFieldName = symbologyElement.getElementsByTagName(self.LYR_FIELD_NODE)[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue` line, sayying list index out of range. this is because the symbologyElement.getElementsByTagName(self.LYR_FIELD_NODE) is empty. But why is it empty? I assumed that this is an alternative to the lyr.symbology method, but it still doesn't work.

Use a context manager for that zip file: with zipfile.ZipFile(msdPath) as zz:.
