I can't find anything on this error I am getting when renaming some files.
I'm pulling info from a csv file and parsing it to build new file names.
Any pointers appreciated
Roy
My code:
# RENAME FILES using META file - new name = [place]_[state]_[sku].tif
import re, os, csv
# DEFINE
_meta_file = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\rhinkelman\\My Documents\\My
Dropbox\\Public\\Python code examples\\topo_meta_TEST.csv"
_files_to_mod = "\\\\Dc2\\inetpub2\\Image Production\\missing_topo\\topo
sz3\\test"
_del_space = re.compile( ' ' )
#OPEN file containing TOPO meta, DEFINE OLD AND NEW NAMES
_meta = csv.reader(open(_meta_file, "r"))
for _row in _meta:
if _row[0] == "NAME":
continue
print '|'.join(_row) # test
old_name = _row[4].lstrip('o') + ".pdf"
new_name = _row[0] + "_" + _row[1] + "_" + _row[4] + ".pdf"
new_name = _del_space.sub( '_', new_name )
print old_name + " - " + new_name # test
# OPEN DIR OF FILES TO BE RENAMED AND LOOK FOR NAME, RENAME AND CONTINUE
for fname in os.listdir(_files_to_mod):
if fname == old_name:
print fname # test
os.rename(fname, new_name)
break
else:
continue
AND the error
Aberdeen|CA|36.875|-118.250|o36118h3
36118h3.pdf - Aberdeen_CA_o36118h3.pdf
36118h3.pdf
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Documents and Settings\rhinkelman\My Documents\My
Dropbox\Public\Python code examples\Rename_topo_files.py", line 25, in
<module>
os.rename(fname, new_name)
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified
Why don't you simply print out fname? This should point you to the error.

Actually he did, in the line immediately before the os.rename() call.
See the line just before the traceback 36118h3.pdf
Roy, your problem is that you've confirmed that the file 36118h3.pdf
exists in the "test" directory (specified in _files_to_mod), but you're
trying to rename a different file in the current directory.
Your call to os.rename() needs to have a full path to the actual file.
See os.path.join() to build such.
