I am using the following code

import os
import glob


vae_checkpoints_path = r"../checkpoints/vae"
p = os.path.abspath(vae_checkpoints_path)
assert os.path.exists(p)
print(p)  # prints 'C:\\code\\EPMD\\Kodex\\Templates\\Testing\\Research\\checkpoints\\vae'
q = os.path.join(os.path.abspath(vae_checkpoints_path), r"/**/*.ckpt")

and q is now

C:/**/*.ckpt

Why is os.path.join eliminating the entire start of the path and how to fix it?

what OS are you using? Windows? – griffin_cosgrove Dec 28 '20 at 14:52
@griffin_cosgrove yes – Gulzar Dec 28 '20 at 14:53

Use `r"**/*.ckpt"` instead. The leading slash is what's wrong. – Dec 28 '20 at 14:56
