Consider:
>>> os.symlink('.\\test', 'Lib\\bar')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
WindowsError: [Error 5] Access is denied: '.\\test'
Where Lib\\bar is previously created. The symlink creation is rightly rejected, but with a misleading message. The failure is because 'Lib\\bar' already exists, not because of '.\\test'.

I fail to see the bug. The output is correct, you are just misinterpreting it. It gives you the error code, error message, and original filename. It doesn't *actually* claim that the access to test is denied. Now, changing the file in the message to the dest file doesn't really improve things. It fixes your case, but breaks cases involving problems with the source file. So if any change is made, it should include both source and dest in the exception. |

issue13775, issue16074, and issue16812 all are virtually about the same bug. There is no working patch in any issue, but the discussion in issue16074 is longer. |
