Root Cause

The specified file or directory does not exist in the file system.

generic

中文

指定的文件或目录在文件系统中不存在。

Workarounds

  1. 90% success 
    Check if the file exists before opening using os.Stat.
  2. 85% success 
    Use os.OpenFile with os.O_CREATE to create the file if it doesn't exist.

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 80% fail

    If the parent directory doesn't exist, creation fails.

  2. 90% fail

    The file path is absolute; changing the working directory won't help.
