Import does not find Access Layer File - [Errno 2]

[mhansi12]

Using ExportImportPolicyPackage V6, cp-api V1.8,

I have an R81.10 MDS enviroment, where I try to export a policy from one domain and import it to a newly created domain on the same MDS Server.
( this python script for "Export" and "Import" are running directly on the MDS server itself)

During import ( I get following "FileNotFoundError" ( replicable!) :

Importing Access_Layer [IMPORTED LAYER Network]

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "import_export_package.py", line 75, in <module>
    import_package(client, args)

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'exported__access_layer__Network__2024_04_17_18_24.tar.gz'

I see in the background, that this file is deleted during import. But I do not understand the work flow of this tool.

What I recognized now during export( after I tried a second time), that there are two exact some export statements for the "customer1 Network" Layer:

1. Change Settings
2. Run
99. Exit
2

Exporting Access Control layers

**Exporting Access Layer [Network]**

**Exporting Access Layer [customer1 Network]**

. . .
. . .
Done exporting layer 'customer1 Network'.

and a little later I got (again):

Exporting access rules from layer [Network]

Exporting access sections from layer [Network]

Exporting placeholders for unexportable objects from layer [Network]

Exporting layer settings of layer [Network]

Done exporting layer 'Network'.

Just recognized another hint/strange thing about my "Export" file:
See the content of this TAR file from this export:

tar xvfz ../exported__package__customer1__2024_04_17_21_28.tar.gz 
**exported__access_layer__customer1 Network__2024_04_17_21_28.tar.gz**
exported__access_layer__Network__2024_04_17_21_28.tar.gz
**exported__access_layer__customer1 Network__2024_04_17_21_28.tar.gz**
exported__nat_layer__customer1__2024_04_17_21_28.tar.gz
03____add-host__2024_04_17_21_28.csv
03____add-host__2024_04_17_21_28.json
04____add-network__2024_04_17_21_28.csv
04____add-network__2024_04_17_21_28.json`
. . .

Any ideas what is going wrong here ?

Thanks,
