I have seen a few questions with this error, but none of the fixes worked for me. I am trying to use the clipping data management tool to clip raster files to a shapefile of polygons. I have also tried to do the same thing with the Extract by Mask tool and I got the same error. This is the error: ERROR 000732: Output Extent: Dataset PerRanktop10percentTPA2001.shp does not exist or is not supported Failed to execute (Clip). The error says that the shapefile PerRanktop10percentTPA2001.shp does not exist, but when I use the print statement in line 39 it prints out this file, so it definitely exists and the script can find it. Hope someone can help! Here's my code: #import necessary packages import arcpy import os from arcpy import env #sets workspace to ADS folder env . workspace = "Z:/Fall2016_GlacierNationalParkClimate/Term2/Charlotte/ADS/ADS_PerRanktop10percentTPA2001" #turns overwrite on env . overwriteOuput = True #lists shapefiles shapefiles = arcpy .

You collect the name (not full path) of the shapefiles in FolderA (i.e. 'FolderA\FileA'). Then, collect a list of FolderB's. Then, try to refer back to the first file (in_template_dataset), after setting the workspace to FolderB, so it is looking for FileA in FolderB, when it should be looking for FileA in FolderA, unless it just so happens that there is also a file with name FileA in FolderB.

Glad it worked out in the end. You can collect the full path into a list like this:

<SPAN class="keyword token">import</SPAN> os
workspace <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>env<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>workspace <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> r<SPAN class="string token">'C:\junk'</SPAN>
shps <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN>os<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>path<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>join<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>workspace<SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN>file<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">for</SPAN> file <SPAN class="keyword token">in</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>ListFeatureClasses<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'*'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

Basically, as it builds the list, it joins the workspace to the file name.

It worked!

I changed the in_template_dataset to be equal to the absolute path of the shapefile I was calling.

in_template_dataset = "Z:/Fall2016_GlacierNationalParkClimate/Term2/Charlotte/ADS/ADS_PerRanktop10percentTPA2001/PerRanktop10percentTPA2001.shp"

Thank you so much!

So how could I set it up so that the inputs to the Clip function are coming from two different folders? I thought if I defined a workspace once I wouldn't have to do it again.

Or how could I collect the full path of the shapefiles in FolderA?

I tried making the source and destination paths a lot shorter and I checked with my print statements that the locations are still confirmed right before running Clip... still didn't work and I'm still getting the same error.

DanPatterson_Retired

three things...

("clip_ads_" + year ... year should probably be str(year) unless it is text already

try putting the source and destination files in much shorter paths.

secondly, you switch the environment workspace twice, you might want to ensure in your script that the print statements you use to confirm locations are still respected/reflected at the various stages of the script just prior to using them subsequently.

These issues are usually path name associated.
