When attempting to make a symlink using a name that already exists, a FileExistsError is raised (and rightfully so), but it lists the source name rather than the destination name. However, the existing destination name is what causes the exception to be raised, not the existing source. Since the FileExistsError is WinError 183 and I haven't attempted this on another OS, I'm marking this as Windows-specific. Issue 13775 seems to be related. |

I tested this on FreeBSD 9.1, and the error message is correct there. |

This looks to work correctly in default branch,
>>> os.link('non-existent-name', 'new-name')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'non-existent-name'

Behavior for symlink is as follows
>>> os.symlink('non-existent-name', 'existing-name')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'non-existent-name'
The error message is misleading, but can be fixed using the patch attached to issue13775
>>> os.symlink('non-existent-name1', 'non-existent-name2')
No error. This behavior is same on Windows and Linux. Seems odd, but can be justified as ok behavior.

issue13775, issue16074, and issue16812 all are virtually about the same bug. There is no working patch in any issue, but the discussion in issue16074 is longer. |
