gsutil and python cmd error

[holly]

I installed both python and gsutil to c drive of my windows 7 pc. I changed-added system variables as instructed. when I go to step 5 (Start a command prompt window and run python gsutil to get a list of gsutil commands.) I get the error "python: can't open file 'gsutil': [errno 2] no such file or directory" when I type in "python gsutil". Please help, I am on a deadline to upload some large video files. I would be interested in knowing about any other options for uploading files over 4gb to cloud , other than browser interface.

Holly,

Have you tried cyberduck (www.cyberduck.ch)?

I suspect the reason gsutil is not working us the gsutil file is not in your path or current directory.

Expanding on Navneet's comment slightly: assuming you're at the root directory of your C: drive, try running the command 'python gsutil\gsutil` to account for the fact that the gsutil command is in a folder named gsutil. If that works, we'll fix the documentation to make that more clear.

Thanks,

ya my gsutil folder is in the c drive, (c:\gsutil) . I tried what you
said but with same error.

[Navneet (Google)]

Hi Holly,

Could you please try this variation?

python c:\gsutil\gsutil

Thanks,

- Navneet

[Holly lindberg]

python c:\gsutil\gsutil worked. thanks! now I have to figure out how
to use the rest of it. lol

[Holly lindberg]

can you tell my the code to write to upload to an existing bucket?

[Navneet Joneja]

python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp filename gs://bucketname

Please excuse the terse message sent from my Android.

I am getting a new error when I put in python c:\gsutil\gsutil. It
worked yesterday...

error " 'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

thanks,
holly

There are two things at play here. The path to python and the path to gsutil. If neither is configured in the PATH environment variable on your machine, you will need to either specify the path manually or you will need to make one of the paths the current path first.

For instance, assuming python is installed at C:\python27 you could either do:

C:

CD C:\python27

python c:\gsutil\gsutil [gsutil commands go here]

OR

C:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil [gsutil commands go here]

Hope this helps.

[Holly lindberg]

I am a bit confused. when you say "PATH environment variable." Am I
making the path value "C:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil" ?

I also considered this may go in the command window. so I inputted

C:
> CD C:\python27
> python c:\gsutil\gsutil

then the next line
python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp mvi_8152.mov gs://transendence_theatre

nothing happened, no errors no nothing. not sure what this means.

Sorry, hit send to soon. You can verify using 

python c:\gsutil\gsutil ls gs://bucketname 

or by looking at the web UI

C:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp filename gs://bucketname worked
but the file name I gave can't be located, "no such file or
directory". I put mvi_8152.mov where the file name goes. am I supposed
to put the files in a specific folder so program knows where to look?

Hi Holly,

you'll want to specify the full path to the file too.

[Holly lindberg]

Like "c:/python27/python c:/gsutil/gsutil cp c:/freelance/mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre"
Bc I tried that and it didn't work. came up with a error "InvalidUriError: "c:\freelance\mvi_8152.mov" contains ":" instead of "://". 

so I tried: 

c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp c://freelance/mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre

InvalidUriError: Unrecognized scheme "c".

Next I tried:

c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp gs://freelance/mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre

InvalidUriError: Attempt to get key for "gs://freelance/mvi_8152.mov" failed.

This can happen if the URI refers to a non-existent object or if you meant to

operate on a directory (e.g., leaving off -R option on gsutil cp, mv, or ls of a

bucket).

For the gsutil command, file paths need to be specified using the file:// convention. OR, you could just make the directory with the files the current directory. So, this should work for you:

C:

CD C:\freelance

c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre

That should work... this should also work and shows the file:// convention:

C:

CD C:\

c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp file://freelance/mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre

Hope this helps.

[Holly lindberg]

didn't work

C:
CD C:\freelance
c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp mvi_8152.mov gs://transcendence_theatre

this did work. thanks for all your help.

C:
CD C:\
c:\python27\python c:\gsutil\gsutil cp file://freelance/mvi_8152.mov
gs://transcendence_theatre
