ImageDataGenerator.flow() gives IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I was following the tutorial given here: https://blog.keras.io/building-powerful-image-classification-models-using-very-little-data.html

On executing the first half i.e. the data preprocessing code : 

for batch in datagen.flow(x, batch_size=1,
save_to_dir='preview', save_prefix='cat', save_format='jpeg'):
    i += 1
    if i > 20:
        break

I get the error : 

`fp = builtins.open(filename, "w+b")

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'preview/cat_0_7886.jpeg`

How do I solve this?

save_to_dir must have the full path and you have to create all directories in that path before hand

Example:
save_to_dir=r'C:\ML\augImage\train'

I was having the same issue and I fixed using

folder = "training_blond_sep" (no slash or backslash)
(...)
for batch in datagen.flow_from_directory(folder, classes=['cat1','cat2'], target_size=(180,180), batch_size=100,  shuffle = False, seed=7, save_to_dir=folder+'/aug', save_prefix="changed"):

but I had to create this folder manually.

Hope this helps.

Try using an absolute path like /tmp/preview after making sure that path exists
