I can't reproduce this problem on windows 7 amd64 with go1.5 . |

If you run program above (as is), what does it output? Alex |
|
The error is not ERROR_BAD_NETPATH. It's GetFileAttributesEx. |

@choleraehyq I am not asking what the error is, I just want to know what you see on your screen. My program outputs this: Do you see something completely different? Would you mind providing your screen output? you can use mouse to select required portion of your screen and clipboard to capture it. Alternatively you can press PrintScreen key to get a picture.

This program
package main
import (
"log"
"os"
)
func main() {
_, err := os.Stat(
\\no_such_server\no_such_share\no_such_file)if err == nil {
log.Fatal("stat succeeded")
}
if !os.IsNotExist(err) {
log.Fatal("os.IsNotExist is false")
}
}
fails with
2015/08/28 10:08:21 os.IsNotExist is false
exit status 1
but should succeed.
It appears windows returns ERROR_BAD_NETPATH error here, but os.IsNotExist does not check for that error.
