Im developing a flask app , i have some directories that have read write and executing permissions,
but my python script cant see or write in any of this new directories,
for example y get this error log
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'images'
but the directory images exists and have the aproppiate permissions
any idea why is this happening?
any help -as simple as it is- would be valuable for me
thanks!
It looks like you're using a relative directory that is relying on the working directory being what you expect. It's likely that the working directory is not what you expect, so use the full path to the directory that you want to write to.
Hi glenn, i tried an absolute path in my python script, but still not working if i execute the script via web,
if i use bash console, the files and directories are perfectly accesible, there is something i am missing
Here's a simple experiment: Change directory to a different directory than where your script is and then run it from the console. If it fails, then you're not using an absolute path.
Here is the type of path im using in the script
for f in os.listdir("/home/myname/mysite/images"):
And im getting "no such file or directory" images at the error log
But fron the Bash console i can see and write in this directory
Have you reloaded your webapp?
Yep i always reload before executing the script.
Same thing happens here for example:
@app.route('/home/myname/mysite/upload', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
If i leave it this way. The Server returns a 404 error because is not able to see the directory "upload" but if i change the path to something like this
@app.route('/', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
It works.
I've checked the permissions for "upload" directory in the bash console and they're ok.
It seems to be not accesible only when the script is executed from the webapp
Uh. I think you're getting confused here: The path specified in the app.route decorator is a URL path where the view that you define in the attached function is published. It's not a file path and has nothing to do with where your files are saved.
oh ok im sorry, coding isnt my speciality, below is my script , when i go to the url for the webapp, it returns a 404 error, but when i modify this
@app.route('/upload', methods=['POST', 'GET']) to this @app.route('/', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
or this
for f in os.listdir("images"): to this for f in os.listdir("."):
it works, i know these directories have to exist , and have to work like that., so i dont know why the script can´t be able to view any folder pointed at this script.

Like I said originally, you should use absolute paths and not relative paths. Here are some examples of relative paths from a quick scan through your code:
img.save("images/%s" % name_img_db)
and
for f in os.listdir("images"):
how i can change direcctory in console?
You can use:
cd /the/directory/you/want/to/change/to
15:10 ~ $ cd /mysite bash: cd: /mysite: No such file or directory 15:10 ~ $
/mysite does not exist. Then path you want to use is either mysite or /home/Bill50/mysite
thanks .. you help me & i have the solution!! !
pls check the demo: " bill50.pythonanywhere.com "
