[web2py] Re: Unable to save pdf documents in my app
A few years ago I had to create a directory by web2py. I did it as follows:
from subprocess import Popen
...
create_dir = Popen(['mkdir', '%s%s' %(destination, build_date.strftime(
'%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S'))], stderr=PIPE)
Thus, if the directory is not available you can create it. I guess the
return value of Popen will tell you.
Maybe it helps.
Regards
Clemens

Does the user that is running the web2py server have rights to create the
directory and files inside that directory?

I think the folder would be created. However, the security must be setup
properly for it to happen.
Is this on a production box? Linux?
