Error message in script - powershell

Question

I am trying to script a solution copying some files from one location to another..
I have a list of files in a .csv format, with headers
"ParentFolder, Name, FullName, lastwritetime."
Content of file is, which has hundreds of lines, and different paths, but same drive letter:
"X:\clients\A90\201AA3.05\","2012.08 RAP Proposal.xlsm","X:\clients\A90\201AA3.05\2012.08 RAP Proposal.xlsm","20/05/2016 10:41:08"
What i would like to do is copy the above..
"X:\clients\A90\201AA3.05\2012.08 RAP Proposal.xlsm" to a new location with differnet drive, but same directory structure. So in the csv file i have the filename and path, but am unsure how to split the drive from there and make a variable.
I have a foreach loop..
$ToCopy = Import-Csv "c:\temp\log.csv"
foreach($Line in $ToCopy)
{
$FullPath = $Line.ParentFolder
$File = $Line.Name
$FullName = $Line.FullName
$file = "$FullPath\$FullName"
$DestPath = Split-Path $FullPath -NoQualifier
Copy-Item "$FullName" -Destination c:\test\$DestPath
}
Error message that i am getting is :
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Copy-Item], DirectoryNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.CopyItemCommand
Copy-Item : Could not find a part of the path 'C:\test\clients\A90\Support\_index0901\'.

Answer 1

You get the error because the directory structure of your target path probably does not exist
To solve that you can create a 'temporary' file with New-Item ... -Force which creates the missing directories if necessary and then overwrite that file with Copy-Item like so
$ToCopy = Import-Csv "c:\temp\log.csv"
foreach($Line in $ToCopy)
{
$FullPath = $Line.ParentFolder
$File = $Line.Name
$FullName = $Line.FullName
$file = "$FullPath\$FullName"
$DestPath = Split-Path $FullPath -NoQualifier
$DestFile = c:\test\$DestPath
New-Item -ItemType File -Force $DestFile
Copy-Item "$FullName" -Destination $DestFile -Force
}

You need to create the folders before attempting to copy files in them.
Here's a way to do it, simplified from what you have, but with an added line to take care of the folders' creation.
foreach($File in $ToCopy)
{
$DestPath = Join-Path -Path 'c:\test' -ChildPath ( Split-Path $File.ParentFolder -NoQualifier )
If ( -not ( Test-Path -Path $DestPath ) ) { New-Item -Path $DestPath -Force -ItemType Directory }
Copy-Item $File.FullName -Destination $DestPath -WhatIf
}
(Be careful, I change the iteration variable from $Line to $File)

Answer 3

You are trying to copy files into c:\test\ directory which does not exist. Create this directory before loop:
mkdir c:\test\
or, in case directory may exist
mkdir c:\test\ -Force
