Hi Bram,
Try throwing "capture=False" to the end of your local() call (so it
reads local("my command", capture=False)) and it should hopefully
display the error message that 'mv' is giving to you.
(That's what this is -- local() called a shell command and got back a
nonzero return value, which is Unix-speak for "something blew up.")
So either your constructed command isn't correctly formatted (maybe
the file paths are missing a leading or trailing slash somewhere, or
they're empty by accident) or maybe the permissions are such that your
user can't move the file; could be anything, really :)
Good luck,
Jeff
