Hello, I'm trying to manipulate a file using a BaseHTTPRequestHandler and a local HTTP server. I can't get the absolute path, really weird stuff. I'm using os.path.join with os.getcwd , and it will always return this kind of directory : c:\\\\path.ext instead of c:\\\\user\\\\name\\\\blabla\\\\path.ext I'm working on windows.

Hope someone can help, it seem that the server directory is always at the base root of 'C:'.
Thanks

Actually, the cwd directory didn't change at all : printing os.getcwd() in my function do_GET or just after if __name__ == '__main__' give the same result.

The real problem was about usage of os.path.join , or simply when using something like open(self.path) . self.path give a string with this format /path.ext , and I needed to remove slash...

os.path.join(os.getcwd(), '/a_second_path') will return a string with format like c:/a_second_path , with truncating for example users/name/desktop of cwd.
