When I open train.py I get a traceback error that says:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\word-rnn-tensorflow-master\train.py", line 134, in main() File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\word-rnn-tensorflow-master\train.py", line 54, in main train(args) File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\word-rnn-tensorflow-master\train.py", line 57, in train data_loader = TextLoader(args.data_dir, args.batch_size, args.seq_length, args.input_encoding) File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\word-rnn-tensorflow-master\utils.py", line 23, in init self.preprocess(input_file, vocab_file, tensor_file, encoding) File "C:\Users\User\Desktop\word-rnn-tensorflow-master\utils.py", line 65, in preprocess with codecs.open(input_file, "r", encoding=encoding) as f: File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\codecs.py", line 895, in open file = builtins.open(filename, mode, buffering) FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'data/tinyshakespeare\input.txt'

I don't know why it says "No such file or directory: 'data/tinyshakespeare\input.txt'" because it is definitely there..help?

I received this error at first as well. I had to ensure that I was in the same directory as the 'data' folder.

Can you please elaborate on what you mean by that?

Looks like filesystem directory structure naming issue. Forward and backward slashes.

"data/tinyshakespeare\input.txt"

That's a good point about the backslash. At first I thought it was escaping a space character but there shouldn't be a space there so it's odd.

So earlier I mentioned ensuring you were in the 'data' directory. What I meant is that when I encountered a similar issue, it worked when I navigated to the project directory which had the 'data' directory in it. The script has default args which look for the input file in that directory.

The problem is the formation of the default value for --data_dir https://github.com/hunkim/word-rnn-tensorflow/blob/master/train.py#L15

You can change this line locally to default=os.join('data','tinyshakespeare') or pass thus parameter when you can it python train --data_dir data\\tinyshakespeare
