Bursting with username as part of file name

I'd like to do something like this, using :xdo_user_name as part of a bursted file name:
bursting code:
select distinct
Geography.Region KEY,
'Blue' TEMPLATE,
'RTF' TEMPLATE_FORMAT,
'en-US' LOCALE,
'PDF' OUTPUT_FORMAT,
'FILE' DEL_CHANNEL,
'C:\Bursting' PARAMETER1,
Geography.Region || :xdo_user_name || '.pdf' PARAMETER2
from Retro.Locales Geography
This works perfectly fine if I omit the || :xdo_user_name from the column definition of parameter2. It fails with this error when I include it:
oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.ProcessingException: oracle.apps.xdo.XDOException: java.io.IOException: prepare query failed
[nQSError: 42032] Parameters are not supported in the select list.
     at oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.XDOJob.runBurstingReport(XDOJob.java:2116)
     at oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.XDOJob.execute(XDOJob.java:358)
     at org.quartz.core.JobRunShell.run(JobRunShell.java:195)
     at org.quartz.simpl.SimpleThreadPool$WorkerThread.run(SimpleThreadPool.java:520)
Is the inclusion of a user name possible possible in the bursting code?

Hey Reed, thanks for responding.
I have a Cf utility that parses logs, so I modifed it to print out the ASCII codes for each character. They look normal, as far as I can tell. The question mark has a code of 63 which is correct, and no non-alphabetic characters precede or follow.
One interesting thing is that the stem being called is an index.cfm file, and the query string argument happens to be a template name, and it ends in .cfm. That's why it is making it all the way to CF, which chokes on it, instead of IIS logging a 404 error.
Often an identifiable bot is requesting these bad URLs, though I have spotted another request with agent 'Mozilla/4.0.' I suspect that is some kind of automated scan. (I also see other requests with the same agent name, though a different IP, that look like errononeously URL-encoded requests. These get filtered by URLScan.)
I don't know for sure is whether the specific clients that make these bad calls always make them them wrong way. They appear to. Most clients that access the site do so normally.
I wonder if there could be something in the request header, perhaps that instructs IIS to expect a different charset than what is actually used, or something like that.

Read Document in FileUtilities cannot search a file with french character in the file name

Hi,
I am trying to search a file with french character in the file name like 'captures écran.doc' in my unix server directory, and Write the file somewhere, say in a list of documents or, write on file system to another directory.
I am using to Read Document in FileUtilities of Foundation, but it cannot read the file due to french character in its name. Although it can find any other file name without these french characters.
Tried renaming but that also cannot find the file with french character name.
Please provide any idea to solve it using LC operation.
Regards,
Rohan Raj.

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the post, but I have already found a solution to it a month ago. Sorry for not posting the solution.
You just have to set the '-Djava.property.file.encoding=ISO8859-1' into JVM argument of your server startup, and bounce the server back to pick the new JVM arg set. And now the service Read Document in FileUtilities of Foundation will read all french characters.
ISO8859-1refers to "Latin alphabet no. 1," consisting of 191 characters from the Latin script. This character-encoding scheme is used throughout The Americas,Western Europe, Oceania, and much of Africa. It is also commonly used in most standard romanizations of East-Asian languages.

Rohan Raj.

Serving up files with Russian chars in the file name

Anyone know how to get CF 8 to serve up CFM files with
Russian characters in the file name? I can get IIS to server up
.html files but .cfm files turn in to ?????????.cfm files.
For example, this:
новостииобновления.cfm
becomes this ??????????????.cfm and throws a CF error (File Not
Found) when clicking on the link. The strange thing is I can see
the Russian characters in the status bar when I mouse over the link
but CF can't handle it. And IIS will serve up the file and replace
all the chars with their URL entity equivalent.
Any suggestions on how to fix?

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

Creating a spool file with date/time appended to file name

In Oracle Sql*Plus, I want to spool out a file, with the date-time stamp as part of the file name. Any idea how to do this?
Here's what I have right now:
SQL>
set serveroutput on size 200000;
rem
rem $OFSA is a UNIX alias so sql plus is talking to UNIX
rem
spool $OFSA/logs/OFSAP/common_coa_id.log;
prompt 'Enter date in mmddyyyy format, without quotes';
exec upd_common_coa_id_driver ('&date_mmddyyyy');
spool off;
As an example, I'd like to have a file with this name: common_coa_id083002.log
Thanks.

In SQL*Plus this is what you can do to get the current date/time as part of the spool file:
============================================================================================
SQL> column tm new_value file_time noprint
SQL> select to_char(sysdate, 'YYYYMMDD') tm from dual ;
1 row selected.
SQL> prompt &file_time
20020816
SQL> spool C:\Temp\logfile_id&file_time..log
. /* put your code here */
. /* it will go to a file called C:\Temp\logfile_id20020816.log */
SQL> spool off
SQL>

When I saved a file an extra file appears with ~ at end of the file name

When I work on my file named "Track 2005-2006" and then save it, I end up with 2 iMovie Project Files:
1. Named "Track 2005-2006,
2. and one named:"Track 2005-2006~"
Then sometimes I'll get an iMovie Project File named:
"Track 2005-2006.iMovie2Project"
What is up with that? They all seem to be identical...but as I edit them individually they start to become diffferent. I can't keep track of which one I am working on.
Why do all these different file names show up?
Thanks
Russ

They all seem to be identical..
Usually they are not identical, which can lead to problems.
The project file that ends with ".iMovie2Project" exists only in projects that have been converted from iMovie 1-4 to iMovie 6.
The other two project files — one with a tilde and one without — exist in all iMovie 6 projects. One is the current version of the project — created when you last saved. The tilde file is the project as it was BEFORE you last saved.
A true iMovie 6 is a package designed, in part, so we can't easily access these project files. We simply double-click on the project package icon and the correct project file opens. (The one WITHOUT the tilde.)
Unfortunately, projects converted to iMovie 6 use a traditional folder instead of a package, allowing the user to see the three project files. This can lead to confusion, for the user may open the wrong project file by double-clicking on it. Double-clicking on the tilde file opens the project as it once existed, not the current version, which is confusing. Then when you save, iMovie creates yet another project file with two tildes. You can end up creating quite a mess.
To avoid this confusion after converting an old iMovie project to iMovie 6 it's a good idea to open the project and choose Save As to create a new copy of the project. The new copy will be a true iMovie package and work like other iMovie 6 projects. Then you can discard the converted project.

Query string read as part of file name, throwing not found errors

Hi all, I host a number of Web sites under a CF7 installation, Win2003.
One site in particular is throwing not-found errors in response to certain search bot requests.
In the IIS log, I noticed that for these requests, the query part of the URL is part of cs-uri-stem field value, but is not in the cs-uri-query field where it belongs:
cs-uri-stem= /index.cfm?template=24hour5.cfm
cs-uri-query=<blank>
instead of
cs-uri-stem= /index.cfm
cs-uri-query=template=24hour5.cfm
Evidently something somewhere is interpreting the entire URL as a filename, instead of a file name and a query string. When CF tries to locate the file it is throwing a not-found error.
Maybe there is something weird about the question mark, but it looks normal to me.
I can't seem to stop this error, since it is occuring at the OS, IIS, CF or jrun layer. Does anyone have any idea what is going on here, and what I can do about it?
Thanks in advance.
Joe

Adobe 8.x Pro Removing Part of File Name

As SOP, I name files by what they are preceded by the date. For example, a letter from John today would be "2008 0519 Ltr from John". When combining files, Adobe is dropping the numbers and booking the file as "Ltr from John". Of course, that is messing up the chronological order of my files. Is there a way to grab the entire file name?
Many thanks.

Spaces and other non-standard characters in file names is one of the results of the long file names that MS introduced. The names can be useful at times, but special characters and spaces should be avoided. As Geo indicated, spaces are commonly represented by an underscore. It is interesting that many web sites have also fallen prey to the MS names with spaces. Other browsers (not IE) try to replace such spaces with %20 for use. MS tends to ignore industry standards and causes a lot of problems as a result.
This is all likely part of your problem. Good luck in resolving it. Geo's advice it probably about as sound as you will get.

Copy the latest file (only a part of file name and extension is known) from source to destination (VB)

Hi,
I need to copy a file (latest) that is present in Temp folder to AppData/Roaming folder. But I know that the file name starts with "MSI" and the file extension is ".log" (like MSI*.log where * is a random hexadecimal number). Also, I need
to get the path for Temp and AppData/Roaming programmatically. After copying to the destination, I need to rename the file as well. I am very new to VB Script. How can I do this? Can you please give me some examples?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Prasad

Can you post your script? What have you done so far.
I recommend a little research in how to use default folders although they will help onl;y the logged in user.
Why do you thing you need to do this: You can always tell the installer to place the log file in a place other than temp.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Exporting as jpeg with use artboards adds to file name

When I export from Illustrator CS5 with "Use Artboards" checked it adds a "-01" to the end of my file name before the extention. I'm assuming that its because its artboard #1 or something. It happens with the all or the range button checked. It doesnt show the -01 when you are saving the file name. This is pretty annoying because I have to go back and re name the files when this happens. Any advice? Thanks!

Same problem, Gex.
Been trying to get this resolved for months with no joy. I have recently produced over 250 brand logos for a large multi national, all of which have to supplied in various formats and file types including .jpg. I too use only one artboard and since I don't want the logos cropped tight to the image, I check "use artboard" with the result that I get logoname-01.jpg on every file.
It may not seem to be too much of a sweat to then delete the offending -01 from the resulting file name, but when you have to do this repeatedly it is extremely tiresome... and so unnecessary!! I too do not want, or need, to append the file name with anything at all.
I really am at a loss to know why, if i have one artboard (AND ONLY ONE) it has to have a number at all. With 2 or more artboards, sure, it may be useful to identify each, but with 1... that is it, that is all there is. The only one. One of one. No more, no less. Very little chance of confusion i would have thought!
So, Adobe can we have a radio button (or preference) along the lines of: "add pasteboard number" or "remove pasteboard number" or perhaps a more enlightened soul at Adobe can respond with a workaround (unlikely, it is Adobe after all!).

Help with importing photos - IPhoto assigning file names that already exist

When I import photos from my canon powershot camera, IPhoto has begun assigning file names that are the same as filenames that already exist on photos imported previously. It appears it is deleting those older files (when I go look in my photo library, the older one with the same name is now gone).
I don't know how to name photos as they are imported as it seems to be done automatically and I'm afraid to import more photos and loose my old pics. Can't find anything on the internet when I search on this question - can anyone help?

Thanks so much for your quick reply, TD.
What happens when I plug in my camera is that Iphoto opens, asks me if I want to import photos (and if I want to delete originals), and I click okay or whatever and they are imported. I name the roll/folder, and I photo puts them in the library in that folder in that year.
It makes sense that the camera is numbering them. I think that the ones it is using the same numbers for (ie - IMG0080.jpg) are the numbers on older photos that were assigned by a different camera that we used to have.
So I guess the canon isn't searching on all photo names that have been used, just the ones that it has used in the past.
Unfortunately, when the new photo is named with the same name as an old one, that old one is literally deleted - at least as far as I can tell - and when I go look for it in my photo library, it is no longer there.
I might try to see if there are any help forums for the canon powershot and see what I might learn there.
THanks so much for your help!

Comparing files in two folders to find duplicates using part of file name

I'm not sure if this is something Automator or perhaps Terminal can do, hoping someone might be able to offer guidance or suggestions.
I have two folders filled with files of photographs.
First folder has approx 15,000 files.
Second folder has approx 1,200 files.
I need to compare the files in the two folders and remove duplicates from the First folder. In other words, the 1,200 files in the Second folder are also in the First folder and they need to be removed from the First folder, leaving 15,000 - 1,200 = 13,800 files in the First folder.
To add a wrinkle to the comparison (nothing is ever that easy), the file names are consistent between folders for the first 17 characters (files follow the format of my name_6 digit date_4 digit # sequence, ie nickB0904087110.jpg) but in the Second folder, the files will have an additional tag added to the file name (ie nickB090408_7110Final.jpg).
Any suggestions or help much appreciated!
nick

Old post, sorry, but for the sake of trying to answer it:
The method described here can accomplish the goal, as I understand it.
http://texo.wordpress.com/2009/08/17/comparing-large-directories-fast-in-osx-or- linux/
rsync -rvn --delete /FirstDirectory /SecondDirectory
(He describes: The 'n' flag is a 'dry-run'; remove it and the files will be copied. And '--delete' deletes any files NOT in the FirstDirectory.)
I found I needed to put slashes at the end of the directory name too. ... /Directory1/ /Directory2/
That way it seems to compare those actual folders. Without the slashes, it just put a copy of Directory1 into Directory2. I'm sure there's something I don't understand about rsync though.

Can I print to AdobePDF with a pre-determined output file name?

I have a list of PDF files that I need to reduce in size. I have tried many combinations of Adobe's "Save As Reduced PDF", "Save As Optimized PDF", as well as several compression programs. The best results I've found have been to print the PDF via AdobePDF, using the standard quality settings.
This leads me to my problem. It's simple to batch the print process to print multiple files to AdobePDF, however each one requires the user to specify the output file name. Is there a way to interface with the AdobePDF tool in a way that the output file name is already determined? I.e. passed into the program as an argument? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
EDIT: Under the Adobe PDF Settings, the option for Adobe PDF OUtput Folder is set for Prompt for Adobe PDF filename. There is also an option to dump to Documents\*.pdf, which retains the original filename. Is there a way to specify a different directory, rather than Documents, while retaining the *.pdf argument? Again, thank you.

You would probably get better results printing from Acrobat. The HTMLLoader rasterizes the image first. You could possibly add a JavaScript function inside the PDF that prints and call that from your AIR app.
See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/scripting_pdf.html for information on calling JS functions in a pdf file from AIR.

Relink from One Image File Type to Another

Eugene asked an excellent question in the comments to this old post:
Say if I do decide to change the .tif to .psd and I move the .tifs out to another folder, would it or would it not be a good idea if Indesign said, “Hey, those .tifs aren’t available, there’s a similar name with a .psd extension, would you like to use these instead?” Then you just press, yes use my .psd files.
Many folks had asked for this ability, and so Adobe delivered: InDesign CS4 has a feature called Relink to Folder. It’s an awesome command (it lives in the LInks panel menu) because it basically directs InDesign to some other folder on your computer (or server, or whatever), where your images may live. So you can relink a hundred images from one folder to another quickly.
But even cooler, you can tell InDesign whether to insist on the same file type or use a different one. Here’s the control in the Relink to Folder dialog box:
So, you select one or more images in the Links panel, choose Relink to Folder, tell it which folder to look in, and choose a file extension. The original image doesn’t even have to be “Missing”! In fact, the two images (psd and tiff, in your case) can even live in the same folder.
Sweet, yes?

Is there a way to relink to folder and only use a selected part of file name

I would like to be able to choose to use just the first 3 places of the file name to relink my graghics files. ie: 001, 002, 003 and have it ignore the rest of the file name, we can now change the extender, could this feature be expanded to enclude more options. Or is there a plugin that will aready do this?

Did you transfer the telephone number from the old phone to the new phone? If you did, I don't see how you could still have cellular service, even if you turned it off in settings.
