Valid file path throws java.io.FileNotFoundException

I have a list of images I'm trying to download in Java. This works:

     for (String i : link_array) {

         File image = new File(outputFolderImages, image_id+".gif");
         if (!image.exists()) {
             System.out.println("Downloading: "+i+" to file "+image);
             FileUtils.copyURLToFile(new URL(i), image, 10000, 10000);
         }
     }

However, a different part of the program I'm writing necessitates using the path already in the image link. So if if this is the link, I would want to save the image as 05785.gif. So I tried this:

    for (String i : link_array) {
        String x = i.replace("http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/","");
        File image = new File(outputFolderImages, x);

        if (!image.exists()) {
            System.out.println("Downloading: "+i+" to file "+image);
            FileUtils.copyURLToFile(new URL(i), image, 10000, 10000);
        }
    }

But this throws the error: 

Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\Ian\Homestuck\images\05785.gif
 (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

Even though this is a valid file path; I've saved hundreds of other images uses the first code bit above. How can I fix this?

Solution

  • It turns out the issue was with trailing newlines.
