Kiesp Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 Hi. I am trying to copy a folder using the DirCopy function and the copying goes fine, but the function returns 0 as if it failed. This is my code: $home = "P:\IT\Backup\" If FileExists(@AppDataDir & "\Microsoft\Signaturer") Then If DirCopy(@AppDataDir & "\Microsoft\Signaturer", $home & "Signaturer", 1) = 0 Then Exit (2) Else Exit (1) EndIf I tried replacing the 1 to a 0 in the flag parameter, this doesnt change anything. Am I missing something or is this a bug in the function ? http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=69911 <-- Best hacker ever :D
PhoenixXL Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) Maybe the COPYING is already done and overwriting fails try to change the destination folder as see if you get any positive results In my WIN 7 it worked as expected Edited June 28, 2012 by PhoenixXL My code: PredictText: Predict Text of an Edit Control Like Scite.

Kiesp Posted June 28, 2012 Author Posted June 28, 2012 It appears to be the network location I'm trying to copy to. I can copy the folder as many times to any other location, but if I try to copy the folder to the P drive i randomly chooses to return failure and succeeds codes. Guess I'll have to check if the folder copied some other way. Thanks for the help though http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=69911 <-- Best hacker ever :D
jayflo276 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I have the same problem when copying from a fixed drive to an USB stick : the function returned 0 even though the files and folers are copied successfully (same sizes and numbers of files/folders on both source and destination). Can someone help, please ? $save_path = "d:src" If Not DirCopy($save_path, $key_drive & "xfert", 1) Then $key_drive may be (f:, g:, h:, ...) depends on what other devices are connected to the computer.
Moderators Melba23 Posted July 16, 2012 Moderators Posted July 16, 2012 jayflo276,I suggest that you add some further errorchecking to see if the copy has succeeded and not depend on the function return. A quick FileExists line should do the trick.

jayflo276 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 thanks for your reply, melba23. Since I don't know in advance what's in the $save_path directory, I'll first load the file list (full path) into a table and then use Filecopy for each file.
Moderators Melba23 Posted July 16, 2012 Moderators Posted July 16, 2012 jayflo276, No need to do that - something along these lines: ; Get rid of an existing folder DirRemove($key_Drive & "xfert", 1) ; Check it has gone If FileExists($key_Drive & "xfert") Then ; Error deleting Else ; Copy the folder DirCopy($save_path, $key_drive & "xfert", 1) ; Check it exists If FileExists($key_Drive & "xfert") Then ; All done Else ; Error copying EndIf EndIf should do the trick (although I have not tested it).
