Category: Python Library Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nir Soffer (nirs) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: os.makedirs fail if path contains os.pardir Initial Comment: os.makedirs fail with "OSError: [Errno 17] File exists:" error when trying to create paths like 'a/b/../c' or 'a/b/c/..'. Seen on 2.3.0, 2.4.1 and 2.5.0. Included patch with new test cases that fail with current 2.5 code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-12-17 18:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 It's not clear what os.makedirs should do with such arguments. It should stay simple and not try to correct bad paths. I amended the docs to spell that out in rev. 41736/41737. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nir Soffer (nirs) Date: 2005-12-05 03:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=832344 And here are the tests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1373197&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
