Well George that's unfortunate. 

I hate to say "i told you so", but i've been preaching the
importance of testing code that manipulates files for many
years. If only you had run the code a few times and MERELY
printed the src and dst paths to stdout you MIGHT could have
saved yourself a tough lesson.

But all may not be lost. 

If you want to post the relevant bits of the source code we
may find a solution for you. Maybe your path munging was
clumsy and you moved them somewhere unexpected... who
knows???
