Cant find >python scraper.py - can't open file 'scraper.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I'm following this tutorial - Dev Ed <3 Usually I complete his tutorial with no major problem.. but this one I'm stuck at 4:05 minute mark.

I install all the packages as he does, but when I try to scrape like this :

(venv) C:\Users\Mario\PycharmProjects\Bitanga>python scraper.py

I get this

C:\Users\Mario\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\python.exe: can't open file 'scraper.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Why? I have bs4 installed and requests.

Solution

  • Your computer can't find scraper.py. Check your "C:\Users\Mario\PycharmProjects\Bitanga", is there scraper.py there?
