I have the following problem

[danielp3011]

Hi guys,
sry, that might be a dumb question, but I'm still new to python an github.

When trying the example code, I get the following error:
File "C:\Users...\Anaconda3\lib\tempfile.py", line 368, in mkdtemp
_os.mkdir(file, 0o700)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: '/tmp/tmpdrthhe2i'

How can I solve that?

Hello,
I have the same problem as danielp3011. Any update ?

Thank you

Sorry, it is caused by setting xml_dir=tmp as default. In python on windows, tmpdir is created at C:\TEMP, C:\TMP, \TEMP, and \TMP.

pythonrouge/pythonrouge/pythonrouge.py

Lines 16 to 18 in 9d1393b

	class Pythonrouge:
	def __init__(self, summary_file_exist=True, summary=None, reference=None,
	delete_xml=True, xml_dir='/tmp/',

I only tested on Ubuntu/Mac, so I couldn't realize this issue.
Please set xml_dir=tempfile.gettempdir() when initializing pythonrouge. It may help you:)

Hi, I have the same problem. Unfortunately this did not help. I changed xml_dir to xml_dir=tempfile.gettempdir() but says tempfile is not defined. can you please help me ?

@kevinborg To be totally honest with you, I've give up using Windows 10 and I've get around this problem using Google Colab.

@louis-mouline thanks for your reply and recommending Google Colab, haven't tried it before. I'll give it a shot.
