eryksun added the comment: Do you mean the dst path has a trailing slash, but the directory doesn't exist? shutil.copy doesn't check for a trailing slash, so it attempts to open dst as a regular file. On Linux, and probably most POSIX systems, this results in an EISDIR (is a directory) error. On Windows the error is ERROR_INVALID_NAME, which the CRT maps to EINVAL (invalid argument).
