Copy files in to a different folder help

Hey guys I'm having troubles figuring this out. I am trying to copy a bunch of files in a directory to a different here's what i have

Code:

if ((from = fopen(filepath, "rb")) == NULL) {
				printf("Cannot open source file.\n");
				exit(1);
			}

			//printf("opened source file\n");

			// open destination file 
			if ((to = fopen(backupdir, "wb")) == NULL) {
				printf("Cannot open destination file.\n");
				exit(1);
			}

this is my error when i try to copy from /home/TEST to /home/1231232141243

New directory /home/1231232141243 created successfully.
Backup file dir: /home/1231232141243/Copyof-1.txt/
Cannot open destination file.

Frustrating because I got it to work and didn't think it worked and so deleted some code :\

You are trying to open a subdirectory that hasn't been created? If you just created /home/1231232141243, then you could write /home/1231232141243/Copyof-1.txt , but you cannot write /home/1231232131243/Copyof-1.txt/somefile, since that intermediate directory doesn't exist.

ok so. here's what I have figured out.

If the directory doesn't exist, the program creates the directory, but it does not put the files in the newly created directory. Instead it puts the files into the current directory where the program is being ran.

Then if I run it again the files go into the directory in which I created earlier (meaning it works). Do i throw in a sleep or something to fix this?

OMG shoot me for being dumb. Sorry for wasting your guys' time. I didn't see that extra '/' that somehow snuck its way into my string concat . . . thanks for that tab.

Note fopen() is for opening files not directories.
