Hmm, I can't reproduce this on our Windows 7 computer here. John: Which version of Windows are you using? Did you use Git to clone the repository to your hard drive, or did you download the source as a tarball/zip from Github?
That was on a Windows XP machine (not currently in hand). I cloned from GitHub. Since you were unable to reproduce it, let me do a git pull and see what the current status is before you spend any further time on it.
OK, I pulled the latest revision and tried running
loader.py --url=http://localhost:8080/_ah/remote_api --config_file=bulkload.yaml -V
and there remains a problem. A new directory iucn/mammals/abditomys_latidens.shp.csv gets created with a file abditomys_latidens.csv inside. Very strange.
Huh! That is odd. I'll try to reproduce that tomorrow.
Hmm, I still can't reproduce it (at @75f02f2feb21). I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium with Python 2.7.2. I thought that perhaps it was something to do with spaces in the folder path, so I tried out the command which failed for you in both C:\Users\Gaurav\Desktop\Code\MOL
and C:\Users\Gaurav\Desktop\Folder With Spaces In It\Map of Life
, but both worked perfectly, and definitely without a new folder being created inside workflow/iucn
.
One theory: we use shlex.split
to split up command lines before passing them on to subprocess.call
; I wonder if there's some weird symbols in your filenames (such as '<', '>', '"') which might be throwing shlex.split
off. It's a bit of a long shot, but it's the only thing I can think of. If it's not that, I'll try hunting for a Windows XP/Vista computer.
Tested on XP machine today and successfully uploaded shapefiles with loader.py.
OK, let's call it a corner case on Tuco's wonky XP machine and let it go? Think there are more valuable things to do than chase this one further.
On Windows, running loader.py throws an error creating csv files:
