The system cannot find the file specified java

Question

Problem:

I have started learning java a few days earlier. I was doing good so far except I git the error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: (The system cannot find the file specified)

I was trying to read a file from my system as an assignment but it’s not working in my case. I have got a very simple set code and I am attaching my code snippet below. Please, have a look and fix the error for me (if possible)

import java.io.*;
	public class Assignment{
	    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
	        try {
	      MyReader reader = new MyReader(new FileReader("D:/my_text.txt"));
	      System.out.println(reader.readLine());
	    } catch (IOException e) {
	      System.out.println(e);
	    }
	 
	    }
	}

Thanks for your help, mate.

 

Answer 1

I haven’t found any problem in your code except your file location specification. Please write the file location like below except yours.

"D:\\my_text.txt"

This problem generally occurs due to the mismatch of the file name. The other possible problem could be the name of your source file and inside the FileReader() function name. Otherwise, it looks good.
Re-check them and fix them if you find any mismatch there. 

Thanks
