Allright I tried a couple of things with your suggested appraoch:
- I printed all the strings used to define paths and files, this all
seems correct.
- The os.mkdir() command is passed without raising an error, but
without creating the directory either, this results in an "IOError: No
such file or directory" because of course a file can't be created in a
non-existing directory.
- I tried creating files in different already existing directories and
this works as expected.
- I tried to use os.makedirs() instead of os.mkdir(), this raises an
interesting error: "mkdir() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)", I
tried calling the script outside of Django and this should work the
way I'm using it:
kmlpath = "%s/%s" % (basepath, game_id)
if not os.path.isdir(kmlpath):
os.makedirs(kmlpath)
- I tried creating a file without any directory structure in the path,
the file is created in the root of the website, if I try creating a
directory with os.mkdir() it should take the root as well I presume,
but no directory is created.
It seems that Django 1.2.1 has problems calling the os.mkdir() and
makedirs() commands ?
