Hello, I have followed the youtube tutorials. Butler is working correctly and connect, however, I keep getting that the system cannot find the file specified. The path is copy and pasted directly from the properties of the file. I've been trying for a week now and keep getting this error. Any ideas on what is causing it?
It’s kinda hard to tell what you ran from you pasted, but I think you’re mistakenly passing the src and target as a single argument. They are two separate arguments, which means two sets of quotes. (generally, though, quotes are not required for the target because targets will not contain spaces or any other characters that need to be quoted)
If you can share the entire command you’re running along with the error message I can probably point you in the right direction. Thanks
If I only put the “” around the path, it says it cannot locate it,
Then you’re providing the wrong path. Double check to make sure it’s a valid directory. If you want to reply with that command you’re running I can take a look to see if I spot anything wrong.
it can only locate it when I enclose the entire command line in quotes
It’s not finding it, it’s showing you a completely different error message
I think the issue is that you don’t have a regular .zip file, but a special Windows folder called a Compressed Folder. From the properties panel in the screenshot I see that there’s no .zip file extension on it, which makes me believe it’s something else.
Butler is designed to work on compressed directories, so if you’re at a loss at what to do, try extracting the folder to a regular folder, and tell butler to work with that.
