I try to convert with arcpy (python 2.7.8) 50 KML and KMZ files, that i downloaded from google earth into shapefiles. All files located in many sub-Folders. All Sub Folders are located in one large directory. When i run this code:
import arcpy,fnmatch,os
rootPath = r"C:\Project\gis\layers"
pattern = '*.km*'
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(rootPath):
for filename in fnmatch.filter(files, pattern):
print(os.path.join(root, filename))
arcpy.KMLToLayer_conversion( r"C:\Project\gis\layers" ,r'C:\Project\gis')
i get an error:
C:\Project\gis\layers\ESD.kml
ExecuteError: Failed to execute. Parameters are not valid.
ERROR 000814: Invalid file type

I red:
