Image path file not found

I have spent quite a while trying to solve this problem, but to no avail. I have searched stackoverflow as well as Google and have not been able to resolve my (seemingly) simple problem.

I am getting a FileNotFoundException in the following line:

Image.FromFile("\\Resources\\Icons\\key-icon.png");

The folders and image are really there, and I can't see what the problem is.

For this case I discovered that sikuli does not automatically detect the root folder of the project. What you should do for this case is specify the folder using the command System.getProperty("user.dir");

import org.sikuli.script.*;

public class Test {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
            Screen s = new Screen();
            try{
                    String pathYourSystem = System.getProperty("user.dir") + "\\";
                    s.click(pathYourSystem + "imgs/spotlight.png");
                    //s.wait(pathYourSystem + "imgs/spotlight-input.png");
                    //s.click();
                    s.write("hello world#ENTER.");
            }
            catch(FindFailed e){
                    e.printStackTrace();
            }
    }
}

Image.FromFile(Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory,
                            @"Resources\\Icons\\key-icon.png"))

Base-directory Combine your file-name

Internally, Image.FromFile uses File.Exists to check whether the file exists. This method returns false when:

  • the file does not exist (makes sense)
  • the current process identity does not have permission to read the file

It may be that the second option is your problem.

And another possibility: is Resources a network share? In that case you should use the following:

Image.FromFile("\\\\Resources\\Icons\\key-icon.png");

You should consider that it is started from "yourproject/bin/Release" so you need to go up 2 directories. Do this:

Image.FromFile("..\\..\\Resources\\Icons\\key-icon.png");

Try using an absolute path not a relative one... i.e. 

Image.FromFile(Server.MapPath(@"~\Resources\Icons\key-icon.png"));

You may be missing a leading ".":

Image.FromFile(".\\Resources\\Icons\\key-icon.png");
