Re: Can't find existing file

Hi Daniel, Tell me if this isn't self explanatory: ************ cp ./photos/Nozzle\ 130\ Amp\ SS\ Alum\ 94-00994-06\ 220197.JPG "./photossized/001196-220197-0.jpg" cp: ./photos/Nozzle 130 Amp SS Alum 94-00994-06 220197.JPG: No such file or directory ************ Thanks for trying. Usually coders can read the error line and some folks like to see what you have done to attack the problem, hence the original "ls" line. I could have omitted the original "Help" at the bottom. I didn't think it would confuse anyone by adding it. And maybe you haven't seen the "ls" command. Solving issue #1: The getimagesize command wants filenames unquoted and unescaped. Those quotes were an attempt to handle spaces in the filename, but ended up introducing the error. For issue #2, I think you meant "really does exist"; of course my code is to blame; the script is in the same dir as the photos and photossized dirs. Thats what "./aDir" means -- but remember that only some are failing; cases are preserved; yes, unlikely; the disk has a lot of space; cp is on the path because "some" work; Obviously it's a PEBKAC issue, that's why I came to this php list, to get it pointed out; etc. Solving issue #2 exec (or rather the shell) wants spaces escaped. And yes, some files were there, but the lookup table had single spaces while the filename being compared had double spaces.
