[Tutor] Type Error

[richard kappler]

Still working on my data feed script, if you'll recall from previous
emails, it reads incoming data and creates a name for image files based on
the incoming data in a test environment. below is a snippet of that code
that copies the next image in the pool renaming it as it copies, sends to
another machine via ftp, the closes the file and *** should then delete the
file *** but does not.

img = str(i) + '.jpg'
ID = device + '_' + timestamp + '_' + counter + '.jpg'
src = '/home/test/DataFeed/input/BOT/' + img
dst = '/home/test/DataFeed/output/BOT' + ID
shututil.copyfile(src, dst)
file = open(dst, 'rb')
sendBOT01.storbinary('STOR ' + ID, file)
file.close()
os.remove(file)


everything works except the os.remove(file) which gives the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "DataFeedBatch.py", line 104, in <module>
os.remove(file)
TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, file found

I don't understand the error

os.remove() expects a filename, and you're passing it a 'file' object.

Correct, The filename should be passed as string value.

I'm not sure if you want to remove src or dst, but whichever one you
want to remove, use the name, not the file object, eg:

os.remove(src)
