I have the following code to convert KML to Shapefiels but i am getting error on line 26 i am not sure why?
line 26, in <module>
wks.remove(MasterGDBLocation)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
import arcpy, os
# Set workspace (where all the KMLs are)
arcpy.env.workspace="D:\GIS Folder\IDTrialsRoads"
# Set local variables and location for the consolidated file geodatabase
outLocation = "D:\GIS Folder\IDTrialsRoads"
MasterGDB = 'TrailsRoads.mdb'
MasterGDBLocation = os.path.join(outLocation, MasterGDB)
# Create the master FileGeodatabase
arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management(outLocation, MasterGDB)
# Convert all KMZ and KML files found in the current workspace
for kmz in arcpy.ListFiles('*.KM*'):
print "CONVERTING: " + os.path.join(arcpy.env.workspace,kmz)
arcpy.KMLToLayer_conversion(kmz, outLocation)
# Change the workspace to fGDB location
arcpy.env.workspace = outLocation
# Loop through all the FileGeodatabases within the workspace
wks = arcpy.ListWorkspaces('*', 'FileGDB')
# Skip the Master GDB
wks.remove(MasterGDBLocation)
for fgdb in wks:
# Change the workspace to the current FileGeodatabase
arcpy.env.workspace = fgdb
# For every Featureclass inside, copy it to the Master and use the name from the original fGDB
featureClasses = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses('*', '', 'Placemarks')
for fc in featureClasses:
print "COPYING: " + fc + " FROM: " + fgdb
fcCopy = fgdb + os.sep + 'Placemarks' + os.sep + fc
arcpy.FeatureClassToFeatureClass_conversion(fcCopy, MasterGDBLocation, fgdb[fgdb.rfind(os.sep)+1:-4] + "_" + fc)
Solved! Go to Solution.
Line 24 is referencing 'FileGDB', a file geodatabase; and MasterGDB is a personal geodatabase (.mdb). I wonder if this could be your issue.

Doh, thanks.
Your MasterGDB is a personal geodatabase and you are looping thru file geodatabases so you would not see the personal geodatabase in the list.
