Picture Library : upload image with same name overwrite the image in thumbmail or WebVersion view but not the actual image link points to the old image
Hello,
I am facing a wired issue with Picture Libraries in SharePoint.
We created a custom field and added it to UserInfo list, the column based on custom field lets user upload their personal images to a Picture Library with the name <User ID>.<Image Extension> e.g. 1.jpg where UserID is internal Listitem ID of the UserInfo list and set its URL to the field value which we use to display the image on our custom user profile and some other WebParts.
If the user uploads a different image, it will overwrite the existing one it keeping the same name.
The field worked perfectly with sites using widows Based authentication, but as we move the field to sites with form based authentication we find that the field is able to upload the image properly first time but on each successive upload, although a new image gets uploaded with the name userid.imagextension and is shown in the allitems.aspx page in the thumbnail view and in the picture preview on the dispform.aspx page, but the link next to the name field and the image shown on clicking the preview points to the old image.
To put it other way
https://<Web URL>/Picture%20Library/_w/Upload_jpg.jpg
https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/_t/Upload_jpg.jpg
Would show the updated image
but the actual URL
https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg
points to the old image
what’s even more strange is that even after deleting the image the url still shows the old image at
https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg
I confirmed the same by actually repeating the same exercise on a picture Library in the User Interface
Uploading an image say upload.jpeg in the picture library using SharePoint interface.
Then uploading a different jpeg image keeping the same name upload.jpeg again in the picture library.
In allitems.aspx thumbnail view and on dispform.aspx page preview filed image now show the newly uploaded image but when you click the preview image or click the link in the name field value it takes you back to the old image.
I have seen this issue on environment where we have enabled form based authentication and the issue is not seen on another server where we have wss with windows based authentication.
Has anyone noticed such behavior and is there any workaround to that!
Thanks & Regards

All,
I had the same issue.
In my case, Blob Cache was enabled for the web application in which the image issue was occuring.
I cleared blob cache, and after doing a hard refresh of my browser, the correct image was then displayed.
To clear blob cache, do the following:
Navigate to:
http://yourwebapp:port/yoursite/_layouts/objectcachesettings.aspx
Select: "Object Cache Flush" and "Force all servers in the farm to flush their object cache" check boxes
Click the OK button
Hope this helps.

Error while uploading document with same name in Document library
Hi,
Whenever I try to upload document with same name in Document library it throws an error. I know its a default behavior but is there any way so that I can upload documents with same name or can we append some unique id with title of the document?
Please suggest.
ThanksNo, unfortunately this is not possible. SharePoint treats the file name as the primary key identifier for a document so if you try to upload a second document with the same name it will assume this is a new version of the file. If you have versioning enabled
on the document library, it will add this as a new version. If not, it will overwrite the original file with the new one.
If you need two documents with the same name, you will have to either place them in different folders within a document library or in different document libraries.

I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano. The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one?
My mistake, it was nothing to do with format. It woldn't sync because my movies were HD. HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod. Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions. Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

How to delete one existing file before uploading a file with same name?
Hello everybody.
I am uploading a file to Tomcat server. But, the problem is:
i want to delete an existing file in the server, if i upload a fresh file with same name. In other words, "First check for the file with the same name in the server. If it exists, then delete existing file in the server and upload fresh one". If such file doesnot exist, then upload the file to server.
I have given deleteonExit()
but, for the first time when user is uploading, i want to check for the file with same name in the server.

I have one more doubt,
I am uploading the file to one folder called "uploaded". Before uploading a fresh file, i want to delete all existing files in that folder. IS that possible ?? If yes, can you please tell me how to do that ??

Automator and applescript to copy new files in a folder with same name as parent folder
I have an iMac with a pictures folder (Finder folder) containing several subfolders with pictures. As per now, all these subfolders are imported into an iPhoto library (and the structure of the Finder pictures folder is thus maintained: The iPhoto events are named the same as the Finder subfolder). I.e. I have not created any albums in iPhoto.
I have also set up a workflow, where new iPhone photos are automatically being synced to specified Finder folders within the iMac pictures folder. So what I want to do is to make a workflow to import potential new photos from week to week into the existing iPhoto structure. I know iPhoto has this Autoimport folder, so this one is unpacked and "mapped". So, this is what I´m hoping to do:
Automator (iCal - want to do this on a weekly basis):
- Get specified Finder items -- set to target folder = iMac pictures folder
- Get folder content (with subfolders)
- Filter Finder items
- Items from the last 7 days (which then would be any new files created last week)
- Applescript/shell script loop(?)
- Get folder name for each file´s (from previous step) parent folder
- Create new folder with same name as the file´s parent folder (if not already existing) under the iPhoto Autoimport folder
- Copy the given file into the folder from above
- Run iPhoto application (Automator task), which then should just auto import the new photos according to the Finder folder structure
Whith the workflow above, I aim to maintain the existing iPhoto structure, and just import new photos into the existing structure. Creating folder names under the Autoimport, similar as the existing Finder folder names / iPhoto events should make it possible to have the new files imported under the existing event, right?Anyone?
I have now switched to Aperture (from iPhoto) due to Aperture´s capability to handle Finder folder structure, and due to the possibility of having the pictures within Aperture as referenced files to the pictures within the Finder folders (i.e. possibility to delete pictures from both library and Finder folder at the same time).
So I have a superior Finder folder called "Album". Within "Album" I have several subfolders (sub albums) containing pictures. The "Album" folder with subfolders are imported into Aperture as "Projects and albums", and the pictures are uploaded within the Aperture structure as referenced files. So for now the Aperture structure is more or less a direct mirror of the Finder folder structure, whereas "Album" is the project.
And this is my current workflow in Automator, but I´m searching help with my Applescript:
- Get specified Finder items (target folder = the superior Finder folder "Album")
- Get Folder content
- Filter Finder items (to look for potential new files to import into Aperture)
- Kind is not folder
- Date created last X days
The output files from this task enters an Applescript
on run {input, parameters}
repeat with f in input (**Loop**)
tell application "Finder"
set fileName to name of (f)
set parentFolder to name of container of (f)
tell application "Aperture"
tell library 1
tell project "Album"
if (exists album parentFolder) then
** I then would like to check if fileName already exist within the existing album**
** If not existing, I would like to import file f into the existing album as a referenced file**
else if not (exists album parentFolder) then
make new album with properties {name:parentFolder}
** I then would like to import file f into the new album as a referenced file**
end if
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end repeat
end run -
How to sincronize with itunes an 3G iphone that has the same name as the new 4S
I've just boght a new 4s iphone to substitute my old 3G so when asked by itunes I didn't change the name of the new iphone. Now I have two I phones with the same name and the old one is not able to sinchronize with I tunes any more. It's not even able to restore it self so I could change its name to use it under a different Iphone, does any one have any idea of what can I do to reutlize it,. I'd much appreciate your advise, thank you,
León NikIt's easy to rename each unit. When you connect your iPad and it syncs, the unit will appear on the left of the iTUnes screens just click on the unit there and you can rename it. You should do this immediately so you can see which unit was backed up by it's name. You can sync as many decices as you want in one iTunes library and you can even share Apps as long as you're going to sync both from teh same iTunes account. My household has 2 iPad 2s and we share our apps, and we also share downloaded books, magazines, music, etc.......

Creation of BPEL with a WSDL having 2 operations with same name
How to create a BPEL 2.0 from WSDL which is having the +2 operation with Same name+ and we are planing to USE PICK activity but the BPEL is giving error while selecting the operation name
can't create input variable.The selected operation does not have an input message.+
WSDL:Operation
<wsdl:portType name="ABC">
*<wsdl:operation name="XYZ"*>
<wsdl:input name="Request1" message="tns:Request"/>
<wsdl:output name="Response1" message="tns:Response"/>
</wsdl:operation>
*<wsdl:operation name="XYZ">*
<wsdl:input name="Request2" message="tns:Request"/>
<wsdl:output name="Response2" message="tns:Response"/>
</wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:portType>
Can you please provide the alternate solution if the procedure followed by us is wrong
Thanks in AdvanceHi Preetam,
I believe it's not allowed, use different operation name.
A wsdl:portType in a DESCRIPTION MUST have operations with distinct values for their name attributes.
This applies only to the wsdl:operations within a given wsdl:portType. A wsdl:portType may have wsdl:operations with names that are the same as those found in other wsdl:portTypes.
why do you need multiple operation with same message type?

Creating file on network with same name
Hello All,
I have created the A0001BOE20060001.txt file on my machine & i want to create same file with same name on the different machine,
i m able to copy all data in that file & recreate it on the server but i have problem with how to GET same file Name
As i m creating a new file & writing data on the 1.txt which i m creating on the server
How should i recognize the file name & create the same file on the server????Is this on Windows?
I believe that java.io.File works with UNC paths. For example, if you have a network resource on the share myshare on machine my-pc, you could do something like:
File f = new File( "\\\\my-pc\\myshare\\myfolder\\myfile.txt" );
Note that you have to escape backslashes. You'll also want to be sure that you have permission to access the share - it won't prompt you for a password, so you must have already authenticated using Explorer or net use.
Thanks,

Source XML Structure-Two Nodes with same names
Hi All,
I have a strange situation. I am doing a Webservice to RFC scenario. The Third party vendor provided me with the Source XML fro me to create the datatype.

</Packet>
</Envelope>
As We see Above, There are 2 Nodes named "Packet" at the Same level.
So When I try to create my datatype in XI based on this XML, XI wont allow to create 2 nodes with same names at the same level.
We asked the vendor to change the name of the second Packet to Packet_1, they told they cant change it.
Is there a way in XI to handle this issue??. ie to create 2 nodes with the same name at the same level??
Thanks,
HarshHi,
Thats's funy, web service is exposed by PI... but it's the thirdparty (client of our web service server) who imposes their choice for structure !! Inversed world.
Either in Data Type, you define the "Packet" node with an occurence 0..N (or at least 0..2). That will allow you to have the 2 desired nodes by your third-party !
Or... as your third-party does not want to chance something in their side, that means they probably already have such a web service and so a WSDL file or an XSD of this structure... So ask to them to provide you this WSDL, and you, you will use it as an External Def.
regards.

When syncing pictures from my computer to my I-Phone I get 2 copies of the pictures, 1 in the Photo Library and another in a library with the same name as the folder I put pictures in to put on the phone. This started after I upgraded to ios5. I have tried re-installing I-Tunes. I have not reset the phone. My main concern is the amount of memory pictures take up on the phone. It's not a problem now but could be in the future. Any Ideas on why this happening?
It has always been this way. it was never different. This is how the iphone handles photos - always has.
There are NOT two copies, There are simply two ways to access the very same photos. All synced photos will ALWAYS be under Photo Library ( you can look at all photos at once this way or do a slideshow of all photos). Those very same photos can also be accessed from the individual folders so you can show or slideshow just that folder.
Just as a book can be in the library and in the fiction section, there is only one book/photo. -

Can't copy over file with same name
I have a master folder with lots of photos in it (1000+). When a photo with the same name is updated elsewhere and I want to put it in the folder and overwrite the old photo, I can't do it. It just copies the new file into the folder and changes its name (adds a "2" on the end of it).
I want to replace the old file with the new one. With my old Mac this was easy to do; why can't I do this now? Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change?
I could delete the old photo, then drag in the new one, but I'm dealing with a lot pf photos for a huge project, and that would take up a lot of time to do it that way.Hi Diane,
It is supposed to give you the message, "xxx already exists, do you want to replace it".
Have you tried creating a new account and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.)
Open System Preferences > Accounts > "+" make it an admin account.
If this works, then log back into your problem account and navigate to ~(yourhome)/library/preferences and trash these two files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then log out and back in again. Or restart.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)
Let us know.

Mail in Mavericks not replacing existing mail with same name
Mail in Mavericks not replacing existing mail with same name.
ThanksI have the same situation as you - sending out pdfs of designed pages and wanting to overwrite them continually. It used to happen on an older version of Mail, then it disappeared and now it's back with the latest version.
It's more than annoying, it's downright driving me nuts. In the last hour I had to quit Mail seven times.
Please send a fix for this Apple. -

Hi all
Hope to get some help with Elements Organizer.
I have 12-15 years of digital photos that I now want to import into my newly aquirede Adobe Elements Organizer / Photoshop. Since my Nikon names the files with continous numbers from 0001 to 9999 I have multiple files with the same name although they are not alike at all. My previous software had no problems with that since I keep the photos in separate file folders based on import date. I generally import photos after each event and so name the folder with the date and some event info (e.g. 2014.12.24 - Christmas at grandparents).
That is a common situation, I have the same limitation for files not going over 9999 on my Canons...
Now - when I import my photos into Elements Organizer I get a lot of error messages with "same name exist .....) Hmmmmmmm
Please sate the exact wording of the error message, I have never seen a message stating 'same name exist...' or equivalent; only messages about files already in the catalog. Files already in the catalog mean that some files have the same 'date taken' and file size in Kb.
Any suggestions. I'm using a mac and tried to rename files based on date taken. The mac can do that but it takes ages to go into each folder and run the renaming script there.
I also use a similar folder creation scheme (such a date naming is the default for the downloader). That way I never get a message about duplicates for the same file names.
However - I can't be the first or only person with this problem so I figure that some workaround must be known out there. Maybe the import action can recognize date taken or - well. Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out here.
You can alsways set the downloader to rename the imported files with a unique new name, there are many options in the 'advanced' dialog of the downloader. I don't know about Macs, but I don't thing there is a difference. -
How to create logical directories with same name on two databases
Hi,
OS: Windows
Oracle Version : 10g
I have to databases in one oracle home. I have created some logical directories in one database. When I am trying to create logical directories with same name in another database, it is overwriting the first database directory paths with the second one
Can't we create directories with same name but different path in two databases on one machine?
Pls suggest me on this
Regards,
VijayI am trying to create logical directory using CREATE
DIRECTORY statement. I am very much aware that the
create directory statement doesn't create directory
on OS. But we can attach the physical directory on OS
to logical directory in oracle
My requirement is to create logical directories in
oracle mapping the OS directories. Both the
databases, wil have same logical directory names but
different OS directory mappingsIf I understand you correctly, you can do this:
On DB 1
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY same_dir_name as 'C:\myoracle\mydir1';
On DB 2
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY same_dir_name as 'D:\myoracle\mydir2';
What stops you from doing that ?
Note: If what you have is one database but different connections, then you are connecting to one database. The above second statement will drop and replace with the first one
