OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory in Python when reading "gz" file

I have a folder which involves ".gz" files.

import matplotlib.pylab as plt, os

from os import listdir
from os.path import isfile, join

mypath = '/export/students/sait/yedek'

onlyfiles = [f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath, f))]

size = []

for a in range(len(onlyfiles)):
        print onlyfiles[a]
        size.append(os.path.getsize(onlyfiles[a]))
        print size[a]

When I want to read the sizes, I get such an error:

"OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'rgb-0.ppm.gz'"

Where is this smart problem?

import matplotlib.pylab as plt, os
from os import listdir
from os.path import isfile, join
mypath = os.path.join(os.getcwd(),'/export/students/sait/yedek')
onlyfiles = [f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath, f))]
size = []
for file in onlyfiles:
        print file
        file_size = os.path.getsize(file)
        print file_size
        size.append(file_size)

try this this is working for me

Your onlyfiles contains basename of the files, not the full paths to them. (and your working directory seems to be not mypath).

You either need to fix onlyfiles creation: onlyfiles = [join(mypath, f) for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath, f))]

or you can also os.chdir(mypath) before your for-loop.
