I was wondering if you could help me with an error with the ‘create fishnet’ routine. Here’s what I did:

env.workspace = "\\Mac\Home\Desktop"

env.outputCoordinateSystem = arcpy.SpatialReference("WGS 1984 UTM Zone 32S")

arcpy.CreateFishnet_management('test3.shp', '788391.5221 9976953.683','788327.2154 9977030.346', '20', '20', '5', '5', '#', 'NO_LABELS', '#', 'POLYGON')

 

The error:

Cannot create FeatureClass test3.shp

 

Do you have any suggestions? When I try using the GUI, it creates an empty shapefile.

Make sure you have write "administrator" privileges when you are running it from the GUI.

It happened with me on windows and I had to open ArcMap as Admin

Good luck!
