File not found error

[Ads]

Hello,

I wrote this code in eclipse / pydev. On running as Python Run it is throwing an error as

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'TestEDI.txt'

import os.path
import shutil
from os import path

def main():

    print ("file exist:"+str(path.exists("C:/Users/Desktop/TestEDI.txt")))
       
#Copy a file with new name
newPath = shutil.copy('TestEDI.txt', 'C:/GNS082/Desktop/Test2Jan')
print ("file exist at new destination:"+str(path.exists('C:/Users/Desktop/TestEDI.txt')))
   
if __name__== "__main__":
   main()

Whats wrong with this code as it is working on my python IDLE on local system.

Thanks !
Adi

can you try putting full path of file and see if that helps, i doubt working directory would have been different when run from IDE causing the issue.

import os
print(os.getcwd()) #check working directory, if file not here, add full directory location for filename
newPath = shutil.copy(r'C:/Users/Desktop/TestEDI.txt', r'C:/GNS082/Desktop/Test2Jan')

Best Regards,

Well, the file doesn't exist in that path. Are you sure that the path is correct?

[saqib1066]

Yes the directory does exist and all the WeatherIcons are located in that directory

You can try the tutorial from the link I provided and see if the same error comes for you.
