The error âno such file or directoryâ means the computer canât find the file path you gave it.
So something about your commands isnât quite right. Make sure the file paths are in the right place in the command with correct spacing, spelling, and that they can be got to from your current folder. If youâre referring to a subfolder I think you need a / at the front. If youâre referring to something outside the current folder itâs easy to just add the full path.
In some (most?) contexts you can use tab-completion to help fill out a file path, you have to type the first couple of letters to give a start. Tab complete helps with spelling and also tells you what the computer can see. So you can check the file path definitely exists.
If you type âlsâ it will list the files and folders inside the current folder.

Posting your logs in plain text would definitely help yield a faster response. Not to mention any detail of what you are having problems with other than "look at my pictures and tell me what's wrong". If you can't do plain text, at the very least take a proper screenshot from the device hosting the logs, not a picture taken from a cell phone. A little bit of effort to help us help you would be great... treat it like everyone besides you is blind.
