Thread: program failing while trying to open/create file

Note that it's possible for fopen to fail even if your program is perfectly correct: you might try to open a file specified by the user, and that file might not exist (or it might be write-protected). In those cases, fopen will return 0, the NULL pointer.

so it is important to check to see if the file was opened by fopen at all with an if statement, so you can at least print an error message and exit gracefully.

answer is already given. You print path inside the function where the path is correct.
Now print the path just before you try to open the file.

now another problem
