I created a new folder in jupyter notebook which was given the default name "Untitled folder".
Upon trying to rename it to "my_folder", i get the following error
Rename failed
An error occurred while renaming "Untitled Folder" to "my_folder".
Permission denied: Untitled Folder
The folder i was trying to rename was listed as a running notebook under the running tab.
after shutting it down, i was able to rename it.
you can make the checkbox checked specific to the folder which you created and then use Rename from the top menu options.
I had the same kind of bug when renaming the file in jupyter notebook and I got rid of it by simply finding all files with the same name as the one causing the error and deleting them and creating a new one in Jupyter notebook.

I'm using blogdown and Hugo to generate a website.
I've created a new R project and have downloaded the theme using:
blogdown::new_site(dir = "Theme", theme = 'pacollins/hugo-future-imperfect-slim') and I can preview the template once downloaded. However, if I close R and then restart and I use the add-in "serve site" I get the following error message:
Error in site_root(config) :
Could not find config.toml / config.yaml under...
and then the directory that the config.toml file is saved in (and all of the rest of the theme files) are listed.
I can't understand what's changing between being able to preview the site in R Studio Viewer, then quitting R and restarting and it not being able to find the config file.
I did find this advice: https://github.com/rstudio/blogdown/issues/48 which suggests that my working directory is not the root directory of the website. There are two things I don't understand:
1) How can the the root directory and working directory work together okay when I initially download the theme, until I quit R and restart, and then they appear to not be the same?
2) How to I change the root directory of the website to fix the issue?
Thanks!
If you followed the blogdown's documentation to create a new site with the command "blogdown::new_site(dir="/your/website/dir")", it will set your working directory to "/your/website/dir".
When you restart R/Rstudio, your current working directory is reset (probably to your home directory). You can check the current working directory with getwd().
The solution is simply set up the working directory:
The simpler way is to execute setwd("/your/website/dir"), then you should be able to run blogdown::serve_site()
The recommended way is to create a Rstudio project at /your/website/dir with File-New Project-Existing Directory. It will create a .Rproj file under the root directory of your website. After that, you can "open project" and work on your website, then preview with serve_site().
I invoke "jupyter notebook" under:
[abigail#localhost anaconda3]$ jupyter notebook
By default, it saves to the directory of anaconda3/ with an extension of "ipynb" when I click "File" => "Save".
How to save it to a directory under anaconda3/, instead of the default location? There is not a "save as" command in notebook?
You can save a notebook to a location of your choice by using the "File" -> "Download as" -> "Notebook (.ipynb)" option from the menu.
Alternatively you can start your notebook server from a different directory and it will save all notebooks to that directory.
A third option is to navigate to the directory you want the notebook to be saved to in the tree view "http://127.0.0.1:8888/tree" prior to creating the notebook.
There are two methods:
1.You can use the magic command %notebook to save as ipynb
%notebook "directory/to/file/filename.ipynb"
2.You can use the magic command %%writefile to save as py file
%%writefile "directory/to/file/filename.py"
In the second method, you should put this command at the top of the cell, otherwise it will throw an error.
It is easiest to select a destination before you create a program using Jupyter Notebook; as then you do not run into this issue.
However, since you have already made a program, one possible solution is to make a copy of the file, move it to your desired location, and then delete the old file. Before doing this, ensure that you have saved it first, otherwise data might be lost.
I created a folder in order for it to be the main work directory meaning all the files I create go there, and files I read will be from there.
For some reason after I created the folder and I'm trying to set it as the working directory I get this message:
Error in setwd("~/") : cannot change working directory
When I try to create files they are saved somewhere different and I get an error when trying to load them. I used the scan function and got:
Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "r") : cannot open file 'ff': No such file or directory
The command setwd("~/") should set your working directory to your home directory. You might be experiencing problems because the OS you are using does not recognise "~/" as your home directory: this might be because of the OS, or it might be because of not having set that as your home directory elsewhere.
As you have tagged the post using RStudio:
In the bottom right window move the tab over to 'files'.
Navigate through there to whichever folder you were planning to use as your working directory.
Under 'more' click 'set as working directory'
You will now have set the folder as your working directory. Use the command getwd() to get the working directory as it is now set, and save that as a variable string at the top of your script. Then use setwd with that string as the argument, so that each time you run the script you use the same directory.
For example at the top of my script I would have:
work_dir <- "C:/Users/john.smith/Documents"
setwd(work_dir)
This may help...
use the following code and browse the folder you want to set as the working folder
setwd(choose.dir())
I just had this error message happen. When searching for why, I figured out that there's a related issue that can occur if you're not paying attention - the same error occurs if the directory you are trying to move into does not exist.
Maybe it is the case that you have your path in couple of lines, you used enter to make it? If so, then part of you paths might look like that "/\nData/" instead of "/Data/", which causes the problem. Just set it to be in one line and issue is solved!
Every time I restart R I issue the following command:
setwd("C:/Users/avtarsingh/Downloads")
How do make this my permanent working dir
Create a file called ".Rprofile" and add that command. R will look for this file every time it starts and change to that directory accordingly. More info in the R documentation here
In order to change your working directory permanently, you can find the following file “Rprofile.site” that is located in your installation path “etc” folder and open it in your favorite text editor (i.e., VSCode). Then you can add your permeant working directory to the first line, like the following line of code:
setwd(“C:\your permeant working directory”)
and save it. Next time you open the R-CRAN, your working directory is set to what you have saved.
Any code which you wish to run every R session can be added to Rprofile.site.
On a Windows machine, this file is located for example in C:\Program Files\R\R-3.1.2\etc. On Windows you will need to run your favourite text editor as an administrator to make changes to this file, since it is in Program Files.
This is also a good place to set your local CRAN repository, etc.
I am working with PyCharm 4.04. Since I installed it, every time I open it, as default directory I get this:
C:\Users\Laura\AppData\Local\Temp\main.py1.tmp>cd
Which gives me an error when trying to use the console:
Error:Cannot start process, the path specified for working directory
is not a directory
But even if I change the directory, the message does not disappear.
The terminal, though, it does work and I can run projects, but I would like to use the console.
Another solution is to close the project, run rm -rf .idea and re-open it. Apparently Pycharm gets confused by some direct folder manipulation and doesn't reflect it properly in his .idea/*.xml files
I also got this error, and it got resolved by setting the default working directory. Follow the below path, and set the Working Directory to the folder where your code resides.
File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Console > Python Console > Working Directory ...
I finally solved the problem.
I think it all started because the first project that I opened with pycharm was in my "download" folder, so the working directory was automatically set to a temporal folder by default and allthough I moved the project to another folder and I manually changed the working directory from the terminal, it was not working.
The solution was creating a new project and giving a correct path to the new project. It seems very easy but it was not that obvious.
In the upper right corner click on small ▼ next to your main to run (look to the left from green right-pointing triangle)
Select Edit configurations.
In ▼ Python select the proper configuration name.
Look at the Configuration panel.
Fix items Script and Working directory.
pycharm
I had this same problem and just had to reinstall pycharm. It's a quickfix and I can't ensure it won't happen again.
I solved this by replacing all instances of the old filename and old directory with the new one in .idea/workspace.xml
It can be done with PyCharm running.
#user1068430 has the answer in the comments to the question:
When you open a project open the directory not a specific python file.
Instead of ~/Documents/myProject/main.py open ~/Documents/myProject
If you "open" the .py file then you'll have to set the working directory (File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Console > Python Console > Working Directory) every time. If you "open" the directory containing the .py file, then PyCharm will open and all of your .py files will be available in the left window. Select one of them and you're good to go.
i had the same issue, the error comes up when i want to upgrade my packages and when i run my project "this FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Local\Temp\gen_py\3.7\__init__.py'" i found that the Temp file in C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Local was corrupt and it was fixed by deleting the "Temp" file, once deleted it will automatically create a new one with "gen_py" in it
To anyone with similar issues: Python interpreter virtual environment is where your python.exe sits. The working directory is where your script sits. To make everything easier, open a new project, scroll to location where you script is stored, and select. Click the interpreter option, click existing (if old one worked) or choose the python.exe. When asked, open the project in a new window, close old one to avoid confusion.
source = banging my head against the console for past few hours.
if the above mentioned solutions are not working, you can restart a new project.
file > New project...
then,
create a new project.
