[Tutor] RuntimeError: file does not exist

[Susana Iraiis Delgado Rodriguez]

Hello everyone!

Well, I tried this code in other computer and it worked just fine. I changed
the line:
    lyr.datasource = mapnik.Shapefile(base=filepath, file=filepath)
    for lyr.datasource = mapnik.Shapefile(base=ruta,file=archivo[0])
I also did hard coding to test my script:
    lyr.datasource =
mapnik.Shapefile(file='C:\\Python26\\tapalpa_05_plani_line')
It also worked as well!!

But when I run the module in my computer it throws many errors, if I use
lyr.datasource = mapnik.Shapefile(base=ruta,file=archivo[0]), it shows
Python Runtime Error: wrong file code: -1991225785
