I am trying to copy my feature but for some reason I keep getting Error 000210. I am using Arcpro and I did the fixes online but I cannot get it to work.

Can you give more context/information on what you're doing, what tools you're using to do it, and the full error message?

This is in the python area, is this a script which is failing or just a tool? If a script, can you share the script?

I am trying to copy a shapefile before I perform my analysis so I have a backup. This worked Thursday last week with no issue but now it is not.

This is code subset

input shapefile: feature = r"J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\OLIVER\Refined\Acushnet_Oliver_Parcels_15.shp"

output shapefile: featureCopy = r"J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp"

tool used: arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(feature, featureCopy)

 

Error:

ERROR 000210: Cannot create output J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp
Failed to execute (CopyFeatures).

I can see how that would work when using a geodatabase. But I am not sure if this would apply for shapefiles. My input and output are two different shapefiles going to two different locations.

then the tool inputs or you python code needs to be looked at

"J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp"

print(p)
J86ˆ\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp

 

the old path beginning with numbers issue

raw encoding

 p = r"J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp"

print(p)
J:\1086\210\GIS\ROW_140\Data\Draft\Draft_Acushnet_Parcels.shp
