Hello guys, I face an issue about the RBFW Keyword “Get File”. When I launch it on Jenkins, the error below was shown in the log. ## ${Data} = OperatingSystem . Get File ${File\_Name}, encoding=UTF-8, encoding\_errors=strict INFO Getting file ‘[/opt/robotframework/temp/src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt] (file:///opt/robotframework/temp/src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt)’. **FAIL FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: \*\* \*\* ‘/opt/robotframework/temp/src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt’** **the Keyword** UI - Lire Contenu Fichier ${Data} Get File ${File\_Name} encoding=UTF-8 encoding\_errors=strict NB: ${File\_Name} = src//resources//Numero\_Ticket.txt Help plz. ---

> [@Morad\_Elkhaily](#): > > /opt/robotframework/temp/src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt That was the file it searched for, not the one you intended (src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt). Because you assumed relative path starting from ${CURDIR}/src/… But Jenkins job started at its workspace, /opt/robotframework/temp/ The solution is for you to provide FULL path to the file (and making sure it exists on the Jenkins node running the job. ---

Thank you for your answer, I have already entered the full path in which I have the file **“C://Workspace-score//src//resources//Numero\_Ticket.txt”** and it displays the same error again. How can i provide FULL path to the file plz. ---

Well, when you use / you do not need //. Only when using \ you need \\. You should use a FULL path when you know the exact location in the Jenkins node (probably not your machine), or use a relative path for example based on the location of the test suite file. There are some default variables for this. for example the ${CURDIR} (and maybe ${TESTDIR}, you need to check). Maybe ${CURDIR}/src/resources/Numero\_Ticket.txt works, but you are the only one who can try. You can also map Jenkins node environment variables, like ${WORKSPACE}. ---

> [@Morad\_Elkhaily](#): > > FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory When you open a file with the name “filename.ext”; you are telling the open() function that your file is in the current working directory . This is called a relative path. `file = open('filename.ext') //relative path` In the above code, you are not giving the full path to a file to the open() function, just its name - a relative path. The error “[FileNotFoundError](http://net-informations.com/python/err/path.htm): [Errno 2] No such file or directory” is telling you that there is no file of that name in the working directory. So, try using the exact, or absolute path. `file = open(r'C:\path\to\your\filename.ext') //absolute path` In the above code, all of the information needed to locate the file is contained in the path string - absolute path. ---
