#3152 closed Bug (No Bug)

FileCopy doesn't cope well with copying files with embedded spaces in their name to UNC destinations

Reported by: pscales@… Owned by: Jon
Milestone: Component: AutoIt
Version: 3.3.14.0 Severity: None
Keywords: Cc:

Description

FileCopy of a file with a full path specification and included spaces in the filename to a destination specified as a UNC path will fail. Note that if no path specification is supplied in the source string, FileCopy succeeds. Tried with V 3.3.12.0, 3.3.14.0, beta 3.3.15.0.

In the examples below, $temp is a folder name in the format "YYYYMMDDHHNNSS.$$$", e.g., "20151027144712.$$$"

FileCopy("C:\Temp\" & $temp & "\TestFile_1.txt", "\\SERVER\C$\Temp")

works, but

FileCopy("C:\Temp\" & $temp & "\Test File 2.txt", "\\SERVER\C$\Temp")

doesn't.

Neither does

FileCopy("""C:\Temp\" & $temp & "\Test File 2.txt""", "\\SERVER\C$\Temp")

or

FileCopy("""C:\Temp\" & $temp & "\Test File 2.txt""", """\\SERVER\C$\Temp""")

This works:

FileChangeDir("C:\Temp\" & $temp)
FileCopy("Test File 2.txt", "\\SERVER\C$\Temp")

The reproducing script is wrong as a "\" is missing for the "Test File 2.txt"
I don't have access to a remote server so I can't reproduce
Please try again with the script corrected
Thanks

Hi,
No bug just the repro script does not override the already copied file and mor the file name should not be protected
