cam processor error "no such file or directory"

Anonymous — Thu, 19 Mar 2020 20:23:32 GMT

I just finished 2 different PCB layouts and was printing gerbers to send to board house. I generated the first PCB gerbers no issue. But Now, I am trying to process the second pcb gerbers and I keep getting the same error.

I have tried to restart, I tried "save as" and re generate but I keep getting the same error. Any ideas? Thanks

You have an illegal character in your file path. Specifically, one of your directory levels is named "LCR:Pan PCB" and colon is not an allowed character (at least, not without being explicitly escaped). Rename that folder to, say, "LCR-PanPCB" and it should work.

The problem may be your directory name. I dont know if ":" is valid, or at the least it may be causeing problem.s

Look at your screen cap, teh file is in direcotry

.../Neve Console Upgrades/LCR:Pan PCB/ LCR Pan...

It says it can't find

.../Neve Console Upgrades/LCR/LCR Pan...

This is likely the issue unless you also have a directory named as above. When is says no such file or dir, it is probably correct, the DIR listed does not exist, but it is incorrect because it cannot parse ":" properly.

edit, what rob said.

I changed the / in the file name to a _ and it worked. Thank you for your help!
