Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Mike Foord (mjfoord) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Bug in shutil.copytree on Windows Initial Comment: The problem is that the call to 'copystat(src, dst)' was added to the shutil.copytree function, in svn r38363 probably. It will fail always on Windows, since os.utime does not work on directories. I guess that a patch similar to this one should fix it: Index: shutil.py =================================================================== --- shutil.py (Revision 50710) +++ shutil.py (Arbeitskopie) @@ -127,7 +127,12 @@ # continue with other files except Error, err: errors.extend(err.args[0]) - copystat(src, dst) + try: + copystat(src, dst) + except WindowsError: + pass + except OSError, err: + errors.extend(err.args[0]) if errors: raise Error, errors ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1525866&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
