Auto run script to bring port down at certain time/

This might be doable with EEM scripting. Note - there's an EEM scripting forum, where you might find help.
Does the port really need to be taken down, or would blocking its operation at night suffice? If the latter, a timed based ACL might be used.

Auto Run script On Event

Is there a way to run a script (.command) on Events such as "Ethernet Cable Plugged"?

Whenever you run the script in your AppleScript Editor, the app will conveniently highlight the specific line of code that triggered the error.
That will go a long way towards narrowing down the problem.
At first glance, though, I'd guess the problem is in the line:
set theEvent to the last event of calendar "Work"
That's because the preceding line says:
tell calendar "Work"
In other words, you're already focussing on the 'Work' calendar, and telling it to find an event in its own 'Work' calendar isn't going to work (no pun intended).
The solution is simple. Since you're already focussed on the 'Work' calendar, just edit the line to say:
set theEvent to the last event

Shutting down after certain time

I would like to use my mac to listen to before I go to sleep. Is there a function where I can set the computer to go to sleep after half an hour or so after I decide, not a set time every night? Maybe there is a widget or something, I know there is one for going to sleep, is this the best I can do? Cheers

Hi again:
(Chuckling at myself), that is very true!
As you know, you can tell the computer to shut down on a schedule (energy saver), but I do not know of anything that would do what you want.

P.S. I hunted a bit, but could not find anything relevant (other posts).

Internet goes down at certain times

My Interenet has been going out at the same time every night around 11pm -12am. I also have phone service through comcast which also obviously goes out. It does not come back on for hours. I work from home and teach classes on the internet. This is REALLY a problem. I have called numerous times in the past months and had a tech come out with no solution. I try to send a refresh and it ALWAYS fails. It has even failed when the Customer Service Rep assists. I am thinking about replacing the box. If this does not help I will change my service. I have had Comcast in a different city in the past and never had these issues. FYI: My Cable TV always works fine.

Please give us more information:
1) Please connect your computer directly to the modem via Ethernet ( no router, no wireless, no USB )
2) Run ShaperProbe and post your results. (It works with Win 7)
3) Post your upstream and downstream signal levels (click the link.) We are interested in your power levels (dBmV) and your Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR).
4) Let us know to what speed tier you subscribe.
5) Post the make a model of your modem.

Firefox drop down not allowing page redirect is preventing me from auto running and installing software

When I try to install software, Firefox window opens with a drop down box stating Firefox is not allowing page to re-direct. I click on allow, and it goes back to original page. It is preventing me from auto run and installing software. I tried several times, and it just runs me in circles. When I click to allow page re-direct, I click auto run and it send me right back to Firefox page with same thing. Very frustrating.

When do you get this redirect?
Is that when you (try to) visit other websites?

[Solved] Simple auto-suspend script?

I'm looking for a simple solution to auto-suspend (ram/disk) a system after a certain time of inactivity. I can find surprisingly little info for this for linux (or perhaps i'm not looking in the right places), while windows for instance has this built in for years already.
The idea is simple but maybe tricky in practice; if there is no user input for x seconds, no video/audio playing or continuous disk/network usage, suspend the system. Basically the system just needs to be idle for a certain amount of time.
Does anyone know or have a working script or utility for this, or is writing one myself the only solution? The simplest approach i can think of is a combination of checking user idle time (with 'w') and sysload, though it might be necessary to determine a threshold for the latter to avoid simple jobs (cron etc.) producing a 0.01 sysload and thus preventing suspend.
Any other thoughts or suggestions about this?

Sorry for hijacking your thread but I tryed sleepd to suspend and lock my screen after a certain amount of time. So far it's working smoothly except when I am watching something with xbmc.
So I just set --load=1 in /etc/conf.d/sleepd but it still goes to suspend. And I verified with the key o in xbmc that the cpu load is higher than 1%. I also added "-N" as sometime I let my computer download stuff for me in the background.

KODI/XBMC auto run and script problems?

I started a project a couple weeks ago to build a htpc using xbmc/kodi. I wanted to be able to play retro and steam games. So I've installed emulationstation and steam. Now comes the tricky part (for me anyways), writing bash scripts to access the programs through Advanced Program Launcher. Once I finally got that set up, I set the computer to login automatically and to auto run kodi. And here's where the issue happens. Normally when I run the simple script below, it closes kodi, and opens the program (so only one program is running at a time). However if I try to access the program from the auto-run instance of kodi, it doesn't close kodi before running. Instead, it opens the program and then opens another version of kodi. So if I press alt-tab it shows "kodi/emulationstation/kodi", so I have 3 programs open instead of 1 and trying to close any of them starts a cycle of new instances opening that causes a crash....
#bin/bash
killall -9 kodi.bin
emulationstation
kodi &
So since everything runs fine when I start kodi by hand (icon and terminal), I'm assuming the problem is the way I'm auto starting the program? I've used the autostart section under the LXsession configuration, trying @kodi and @lxterminal -e kodi but both produce the same problem. Is there another/better way to autostart a program that I can do this? Or do you guys think it's an issue with the script?
Thank in advance!!
I'm running Arch 64 bit with the LXDE desktop.

How do you autostart kodi ? By enabling the service ?
In that case killing kodi would make it restart.

Auto run a script in a .app build?

I have an applescript studio project that has two scripts. I want one of the scripts to autorun when the .app is opened, is there anyway to accomplish this easily?
TIA
Dave

Where to I enter the
All you need to is adding run script "so:and:so"
inside the handler.
Yup, inside the on awake from nib handler
BTW.... when I click "edit" the inspector goes away?
Yup, it switches to XCode, so you can edit the script.
Now, it can be pretty simple, but it's depend on how you structure you project, to be more exact, on where you keep your scripts. Because you need to get the path to script in order to run it. Here is my example:
tell me to (run script alias (POSIX file (path for script "base64_unicode" extension "scpt") as string))
path for script return the path, but your script has to be in the Scripts folder of your XCode project.

Application auto run

I have write a application in C language,and I want it could auto run with os boot. I write a start script, placed it in the directory /etc/init.d. There also I created a hard link in the directory /etc/rc3.d, and the link file named "S99XXXX", but the app can not auto run, what is the wrong with?
Thank you!

I think that having the startup script (or link) for your app in the /etc/rc3.d is a good idea. This will let you boot to run level 2, have all your network services running, but keep your app down. Makes things easier for testing/patching/whatever.
To answer your question though, I'd try to run the script by hand. Check various for permissions (read and execute) and ensure that you have any needed environment variables set at the beginning of the script. These variables have bit me pleanty of times.
As you probably know, your script will get run with a "start" option. Hopefully, your script isn't expecting a different option.
My 2 cents.
Good luck!

Script To Shut Down a Program At A Certain Time

Hi guys,
Unfortunately I have absolutely no knowledge of scripts so that's why I'm asking help for something which is probably simple.
I run a torrent program and I wish do quit it at a certain time when I am not around. Now, when you close the program, if there are transfers running it brings up a dialog box asking if you really wish to shut the program down. The torrent program is Transmission.
Is there any way that I can write a script to shut the program down for me?

I think you will need to do something with at
so to kill foo.app at 9 am
enter
at 0900 killall foo.app
from a terminal

CFGFWK-60839: Database Load Failed!
Please help me if you find any problem with the steps that I am following to create my weblogic_portal_domain.
I was following the steps mentioned at : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15919_01/wlp.1032/e14252.pdf to create my domain to start portal development.

Those are the WLP 10.3.2 instructions. But, the 10.3.4 instructions in the tutorial (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26806_01/wlp.1034/e14252/setup_dev_env.htm#i1014619) are wrong, too.
In 10.3.4, with derby, Run Scripts doesn't work any longer; it should still work the other database (Oracle, SQL Server, etc.). Instead, for derby, just create the domain, accepting any warning dialogs about databases that come up. After that finishes, in the domain directory, run create_db.cmd (on windows) or create_db.sh (on *nix and Mac). It should create the derby database files in the domain, and include everything needed.
I'll send a note to get the docs updated.

Run scripts on a schedule

Is the a way to run scripts on a schedule? I have a script that I want to run 3 days (Mon, Wed, Fri) a week at a certain time.
How can I do this

lets use iCal seeing as it came with your mac.
create your script and save it where ever you want, open iCal create a new event, on the right hand side you will see the new events draw, set the time you want your script to activate in the from-to area, set it to repeat and end as you wish, go down to alarm and select open file in the drop down, then right below open file their should be another drop down select other from that, that will open a window now select your script, then in the next drop down select on date, your done.
let me no if you need any more help.

Run script action - ZCM edits my script's content

Good day,
I am implementing a script in a bundle that allows me to generate files on the fly and execute them. Upon saving my "run script" action, ZENworks takes on himself to parse and edit my script, I am not sure why.
A part of my script generates a .hta file, an html application, that is used as a temporary splash screen. For some reason (line 85) my event name (Windows_onLoad()) is renamed by ZENworks like this :
oFile.WriteLine " Sub Window_onload()"
becomes
oFile.WriteLine " Sub Window_<body <body <body <body <body onload()"
Does that ring a bell for anyone?
I have other means of doing what I want but I wanted to bring this specific issue to you. Let me know what you think.
