write in a file.txt in the flask server page

Here is the code i execute in a normal python script it works, but when it comes to a flask function he create the file.txt, but with no writing in it

app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/execute',methods=['POST'])

def execute():
    message = request.get_json(force=True)
    name=message['name']
    path="data/"
    testname="test.txt"
    encodedname="encoded.txt"

    output = open(path+testname, "wb")
    output.write(name.encode('utf-8'))

here the writing works for the first time

    with open(path+testname, 'rb') as infile:
        data = infile.readlines()
        all_data=""
        for oneline in data:
            oneline=oneline.decode('utf-8')
            print(

oneline)
            new_data = re.sub(r'[^\u0600-\u065F\u0670-\u06ef\u0750-\u077f\ufb50-\ufbc1\ufbd3-\ufd3f\ufd50-\ufd8f\ufd50-\ufd8f\ufe70-\ufefc\uFDF0-\uFDFD]+',' ', oneline)
            new_data = re.sub('[\ufd3e\ufd3f]',' ',new_data)
            new_data = remove_punctuations(new_data)
            new_data = new_data+'@\n'
            all_data = all_data+new_data
    cleanedtest = open(path+"cleanToTest.txt",'wb')
    cleanedtest.write(all_data.encode('utf-8'))

but here it doesn't (cleanedTest)

You should use context manager. Your issue is that you need to close this file after you write to it. Context manager will do it for you automatically.

Change this:

output = open(path+testname, "wb")
output.write(name.encode('utf-8'))

To this:

with open(path+testname, 'wb') as output:
    output.write(name.encode('utf-8'))

Also change this:

cleanedtest = open(path+"cleanToTest.txt",'wb')
cleanedtest.write(all_data.encode('utf-8'))

To this:

with open(path+"cleanToTest.txt", 'wb') as output:
    output.write(name.encode(all_data.encode('utf-8'))
