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.

I was able to temporarily change it with the following command, but after reboot the working path still changes to C drive.
cd("D:\\jl files”）
As it is explained in the Julia Manual Getting Started section the simplest thing to do is to add the:
cd("D:\\jl files")
line to your ~/.julia/config/startup.jl file (this is a Linux path; if the file does not exist then you should create it with this single line). Since you are on Windows then ~ part should be replaced by default is your user profile folder (it should be possible to check it with ENV["USERPROFILE"] command in Julia). However, if you have a custom installation the .julia folder can be placed in some other folder so you need to check it on your system.
I am currently working on a joint project, with all the files stored in a Dropbox. To avoid changing the working directory every time we change something, we use the following code:
this.dir = dirname(parent.frame(2)$ofile)
setwd(this.dir)
This is working fine when sourcing the code in Rstudio, but we are looking for a solution that is working outside RStudio.
The team is working on Mac and Windows.
For Windows, locate the file "Rprofile.site". In there, there will be set the following command setwd("PATH_TO_WD")
The same goes for Mac, the file is usually located at /etc/R/ path.
Just change the setwd in that file and everytime you launch R, the working directory will be set to the directory you want.
EDIT: In my Windows computer, the file is located at "C:\Program Files\R\R-3.2.3\etc
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 have created an application that compiles and runs like a charm on OS-X. I would now like to start getting it to work on Windows. To start, I copied the project to a windows machine and just tried to compile, but got this error:
:: warning: Qmake does not support build directories below the source directory.
Any ideas?
Set the shadow build directory to some folder on the same level of your project directory:
folder/
project/
project-shadow-build-release/
project-shadow-build-debug/
You can do this in the "Projects" view, via the toolbar on the left. To me, this warning was just an annoyance, a project never failed to build because of it.
Don't copy your project.pro.user file when you are copying a project from one machine to another, or from one directory to another. When you open the project, Qt Creator will offer to create a new build directory in the proper place.
Andref gave the correct answer to resolve this warning, but you may want to understand why this requirement exists.
In fact, the build directory must be at the same folder level as the project (i.e. it can't be above or below). The reason why is that the linker is called from the build directory. Hence, any relative paths to library files will be different than what you entered in your project file.
It kinda sucks. I like to put all intermediate files in their own folder. But you simply can't with qmake.
.pro.user are generated files by Qt Creator. They are unrelated to qmake and should not be touched (and not put into a VCS for that matter)
Just remove the files with the pro.user extension , worked for me
I also got this, trying to compile a project created on linux.
Another way to solve it is to change the paths in the .pro.user file (in the directory of your project)
Right Click on a project: Set As Active Project
Click on the Projects button (The one with the spanner image)
Edit build configuration : Debug / Profile / Release / and change the default directories, OR just uncheck the Shadow build check box.
The Build directory path should now change to black, from red
I'm successfully going through proccess of building an application in Qt but when I try to run .exe file by double clicking on it (outside of qt) I'm getting an error saying:
"The program can't start because mingwm10.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
I checked for this file and I found it, so I think there is some path to be set in qt, but I don't know neither where and how to do it. Could anyone explain to me how to do it?
Thank you.
I think you need to add the directory containing mingwm10.dll to your PATH environment variable. I am surprised this was not configured correctly when you installed Qt/MinGW.
Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> PATH
This isn't something that should be set in Qt. Your application is looking for a DLL it can't find, mingwm10.dll. You can either copy the DLL (and it's dependencies if there are any) near your .exe, or add the directory it's in to the environment variable PATH.
You can go to the location where your Qt application is installed and then navigate to "..\Qt\5.11.3\mingw53_32\bin" directory. The search for the missing .dll files, copy them to the location where your .exe file is situated and then re-run the application. If more than one files are missing try the same for them.
