#6545 closed defect (fixed)

GDALOpen() does not indicate the failed file if it does not exist

Reported by: Even Rouault Owned by: Even Rouault
Priority: normal Milestone: 2.1.1
Component: default Version: 2.1.0
Severity: normal Keywords:

Description

On Unix, since GDAL 2.1, GDALOpen() does not report the file that fails in some contexts, such as when it does not exist:

>>> from osgeo import gdal
>>> x = gdal.Open('/abc/def')

ERROR 4: No such file or directory

In a context such as a VRT it is particularly unobvious what file or directory does not exist.
