python NameError: global name '__file__' is not defined

Question

When I run this code in python 2.7, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File \"C:\\Python26\\Lib\\site-packages\\pyutilib.subprocess-3.5.4\\         


        

Answer 1

Are you using the interactive interpreter? You can use

sys.argv[0]

You should read: How do I get the path of the current executed file in Python?
