Jim Schwartz added the comment: my c drive and h drive are both internal drives and I run the python script from my user directory on my c drive. Not sure if that makes any difference. Just trying to think of things that might help you reproduce and fix this. -- ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue46084> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue46084] Python 3.9.6 scan_dir returns filenotfound on long paths, but os_walk does not
Jim Schwartz added the comment: the issue is with the scandir script, not the os_walk script. I tried to upload the scandir python script before, but I guess it didn't upload. When I was running the two scripts, I used an input of C:\\ as the input parameter.

Jim Schwartz added the comment: do you have this registry entry set to 1: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\LongPathsEnabled set to 1. It works if you do. What version of windows do you have? I have version 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1387).

[issue46084] Python 3.9.6 scan_dir returns filenotfound on long paths, but os_walk does not
Jim Schwartz added the comment: Here's the second file that works just fine under python 3.9 (by the way, I am using Windows 64-bit). I didn't test this on later python versions, however, nor did I test it on 32-bit versions. I see that many people on the internet have said to change the working directory as a work around. Could this possibly be why? -- Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file50493/test_os_walk.py ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue46084> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue46084] Python 3.9.6 scan_dir returns filenotfound on long paths, but os_walk does not
New submission from Jim Schwartz : Python 3.9.6 scan_dir returns filenotfound on long paths, but os_walk does not. I've enclosed sample scripts that compare the two and have returned the results. the windows 10 registry entry to extend the path names fixes this issue (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\LongPathsEnabled set to 1). I've enclosed a scripts that proved this occurs and can be used for testing. I have a script that does the same thing using os_walk, but I can't attach two scripts to this Issue. -- components: IO, Tests, Windows files: test_dir_scan_dir.py messages: 408607 nosy: jschwar313, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python 3.9.6 scan_dir returns filenotfound on long paths, but os_walk does not type: crash versions: Python 3.9 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file50492/test_dir_scan_dir.py ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue46084> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
