Can someone explain to me why this program isnt working? i.e. I always
get 'backup failed'?
This is a program from byte of python tutorial and im using windows xp.
import os, time
source = ['d:\\python']
target_directory = 'd:\\python1'
target = target_directory + time.strftime('%Y%m%d_%H%M%S') + '.zip'
zip_command = "zip -qr '%s' %s" % (target, ' '.join(source))
print zip_command
if os.system(zip_command) == 0:
print 'Successful backup to', target
else:
print 'Backup FAILED'
