My python code is in the root folder and has a sub-folder called "client_side". Can someone help me out on this? python file directory listdir share|improve this question asked Mar 16 '13 at 17:05 Sakura 3471921 1 Just wondering if this has something to do with the '/' in windows ! Ideally, on windows, you should have something like os.path.join('C:','client_side') –GodMan Mar 16 '13 at 17:13 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 8 down vote This error occurs when you use os.listdir on a path which does not refer to an existing path.

I want to make a list that includes the path to each of these folders. However the following error appears. [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified: I currently have the python script where I wrote this code in the same folder as archive and it will trigger this error. What should I do in order to stop this error and get all the file paths. I am pretty bad at using os and I don't use it that often so I apologize if this is a trivial question. Edit import os startpath = "archive" corpus_path = sorted([os.path.join("archive/", directories) for directories in os.listdir(startpath)]) filenames = [] for items in corpus_path: print items path = [os.path.join(corpus_path, fn) for fn in os.listdir(items)] print path So I have made some progress and now I corpus path is essentially a list with the path to all of the desired folders.

Under 2.5, I get a more helpful error message: >>> import os >>> os.listdir("C:\Python25\") SyntaxError: EOL while scanning single-quoted string That's because I've escaped the closing quote of the string with \".
