Hi, I am writing a script that, at one point, copies a file from directory A to directory B. Directory B can only be written to by root, but the script is always called with sudo, so this shouldn't be an issue, but it is. I have tried using shutil.copy() and calling "sudo cp " with os.popen to no avail. I cannot get the script to copy a file to directory B. The strange thing is if I run the python interpreter (as sudo) and type in shutil.copy it works. It also works if I try to copy the file to a less protected directory. It only happens when I try to copy a file to directory B from a python script.
Any ideas why this is happening? If more information is needed or something isn't clear let me know. Thanks for helping. Chris -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
