I have problem in deleting the directories that are empty. I have the code like this:
for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(dir_to_search):
//other codes
try:
os.rmdir(dirpath)
except OSError as ex:
print(ex)
The argument dir_to_search is where I'm passing the directory where the work need to be down. That directory looks like this:
test/20/...
test/22/...
test/25/...
test/26/...
Note that all the above folders are empty. When I run this script the folders 20,25 alone gets deleted! But the folders 25 and 26 aren't deleted, even though they are empty folders.
Edit:
The exception that I'm getting are:
[Errno 39] Directory not empty: '/home/python-user/shell-scripts/s3logs/test'
[Errno 39] Directory not empty: '/home/python-user/shell-scripts/s3logs/test/2012'

[Errno 39] Directory not empty: '/home/python-user/shell-scripts/s3logs/test/2012/10/27/tmp'
Where I'm making the mistake.
Thanks in advance.

Try shutil module:
