I have a problem with training a model in tensorflow. I am working on Windows 10. When I run the command:

python ./object_detection/model_main.py --pipeline_config_path=C:/Tensorflow/object-detection/ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco_2018_01_28 --model_dir=C:/Tensorflow/object-detection/output-model --num_train_steps=50000 --sample_1_of_n_eval_examples=1 --alsologtostderr

from C:/Tensorflow/models/research to start the training process I get an error in line 95 (proto_str = f.read()) from the config_util.py script. Below
you can see my whole console output:

Traceback (most recent call last):

tensorflow.python.framework.errors_impl.UnknownError: NewRandomAccessFile failed to Create/Open: C:/Tensorflow/object-detection/ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco_2018_01_28 : Zugriff verweigert

; Input/output error

The error is in the last two lines: Zugriff verweigert is german and means access denied.

I am admin on this pc (it's my own pc) and i have FullControl to the folders (I double-checked it with PowerShell). When I try to move the folder to another
place, e.g. C:UserslucciDocuments I get the same error. The problem still remains when I run the console as admin, when I try the command runas /user:lucci ... and
so on.

Can anyone help me with this?
I am using Python3.6.

EDIT: This also not helps: Tensorflow Windows Accessing Folders Denied:"NewRandomAccessFile failed to Create/Open: Access is denied. ; Input/output error"

I finally found the solution on my own. It does not matter if you are operating on Linux or Windows.
When you run the command you always have to specify the full path to the pipeline.config file.
So, when your pipeline.config-file is located in C:/ObjectDetection/Model/pipeline.config it is not
sufficient to specify the location like C:/ObjectDetection/. You have to specify the location
as C:/ObjectDetection/pipeline.config.

Running the command again with the full path for the Parameter --pipeline_config_file works great!!!
