I have a simple script where I want to create a file with some info once the file is completed downloading. The issue is it wont write the file and also no error occurs. If I write a folder name of a file that was downloaded previously it works but not the current folder that just downloaded.

import sys, os
folder_name = sys.argv[1]
os.chmod(folder_name, 0o444)
full_path = os.path.join(folder_name, 'myfile.nfo')
f = open(full_path, "w")
sys.exit(0)

Thanks in advance.

Try to debug by adding print statements. For example of your full_path variable.
This also helps to see if the script gets called correctlty.

Thanks I figured it out. Sab was automatically deleting the file once it was created. I eliminated the extension from the cleanup list and now it works.

Heheh, good boy Sab doing what it was told :p
