Check file existance in operating system

Dear Collegues,
Is there any function in oracle that checks a file existance located on local disk of windows computers?
Like i have created a file c:\test.txt and i want to check through oracle function that this file exists or not.

Imran Baig

Is there any function in oracle that checks a file
existance located on local disk of windows
computers?Let's see if I understand the question correctly ...
- You have two computers.
- One is a client, the other is a database server.
- You want to use an Oracle function, therefore you want to issue a request to the database server, asking the server if a file exists on the client.
Is that correct?
If it is correct, please tell us how the server mounts, or otherwise looks at, the client's disk? Once we have that answer, we might be able to answer your question ...

Anyone know why I got this Terminal Error? [ERROR] CPPathUtils.c:526 The device-file for this operating system, 'osx-12.1.0.xml', was not found.

Here is the full text:
[ERROR] <CPPathUtils.c:526> The device-file for this operating system, 'osx-12.1.0.xml', was not found. An attempt to revert to a previous revision of the OS device-file: 'osx-12.0.0.xml' has been made. Please file a Radar report with Apple, on the 'CoreProfile' component, version 'X'.
Appeared after 10.8.1 Friday update while troubleshooting USB/FW issues w/ Mountain Lion.

OK. To recap:
1. Open Terminal.app
2. Type at cursor:
cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreProfile.framework/Versions/A/Resources/De vices/
3. Press Return
4. Type at cursor:
ls
5. Press Return
6. Type at cursor:
sudo ln -s osx-12.0.0.xml osx-12.1.0.xml
7. Press Return
8. Enter password if asked
9. Done.
Can I then type ls again to verify the change?

Checking file exist using file exist operator

Hi all,
My environment is owb 9i. DB is oracle 9.2.0.8
My business requirement is,
If file exists in the landing directory the next instant my mapping should start execution other wise it should wait untill the file arrives there.
How could i achive this functionality???
For this i am utilizing the file exist operator in process flow.
When the file exists in the specified directory i am able to execute the process flow quite fine but when the file doesnt exist in the specified directory the file exist operator is in wait state and even after when the file is placed into the directory, still the process flow remains in the wait state.
please suggest me a way.
thanks in advance.
ram.

Hi Ram,
The problem you are hitting here is that there is no wait activity and no loop activity (yet) in the process flow editor. So it is hard to model this logically.
Would it be a good idea to write shell script that does similar things? You could check for a file, pauze and check again. Then error out or succeed...
In the 10gR2 release of OWB you can completely model this using waits and loops.
Thanks,
Jean-Pierre

FAILURE ( 5640 ): FALSE: Verify File: \\SERVER\DeploymentShare\Operating Systems\Image 11-13-2014.wim\image.wim ERROR

Guys,
I need help with this error please. I have a WDS in building 13 and another 1 in building 31; Both servers have MDT 2013. At some point, both deployment shares were linked via MDT but I deleted that few days to solve some deployment share corruption in building
31 WDS.
Presently I have 2 32bit images (my 64bit images work fine) giving me the following MDT error in BUILDING 13 during the image deployment:
FAILURE ( 5640 ): FALSE: Verify File: \\BUILDING 31 SERVER\DeploymentShare\Operating Systems\Image 11-13-2014.wim\image.wim
Litetouch deployment failed, Return Code = -2147467259 0x80004005
Failed to run the action: Install Operating System.
Unknown error (Error:00001608; Source: Unknown)
The Execution of the group (Install) has failed and the execution has been aborted. An action failed....
Please note, BUILDING 13 deployment share is not linked to BUILDING 31 deployment share. I don't understand why this error is pointing to BUILDING 31 deployment share.
\\BUILDING 31 SERVER\DeploymentShare\Operating Systems\Image 11-13-2014.wim\image.wim has been removed. I need the task sequence to point to
\\BUILDING 13 SERVER\DeploymentShare\Operating Systems\Image 11-13-2014.wim. BUILDING 13 deployment Share task sequences are pointing to
\\BUILDING 13 SERVER\DeploymentShare as well as my CustomSettings.ini and Bootstrap.ini
1. I have diskpart and cleaned the disc, no luck.
2. I have checked the Install action for both images task sequences and even verified each action on both tasks and cant find any error.
3. I have re-generated the boot images and retyped
\\BUILDING 13 SERVER\DeploymentShare on its CustomSettings.ini and Bootstrap.ini
4. I am in the process of copying Image 11-13-2014.wim back to
\\BUILDING 31 SERVER\DeploymentShare\Operating Systems BUT again I don't understand why these task sequences are pointing to building 31. If this step doesn't work, I will restore both images from a backup and re-added them to building 13 MDT.
But I don't think these steps are the solution.I am out of ideas here...

I disabled McAfee AV, moved images boot files to a different location, regenerate boot images files in MDT, update deployment share, re-add boot files to WDS & refresh WDS. This works for me.

File Adapter - Check file exist before performing read

Is there a feature in the file adapter or invoke activity for SOA 11.1.1.5 that performs a check to see if a specific file exists before it performs a read function? If file does not exist then move onto to next step, if it does then read it.
I am trying to do this in 1 step instead of performing a listing of the directory first before perfomring the read.

Hi,
When you read a file, using the synchronous read file, you have to point to a file (file name, directory...). That way, when you are executing the invoke activity, followed by a FileAdapter, it's either the file exists, and you read it, or it's not exist and you don't read it.

How to check file exist in applet?

I would like to check the existance of a file from an applet. How can I achieve that? I'd tried many attempts but still fail to get an answer. Please kindly help.
Below are my file structures:-
folder/applet/myApplet.java
folder/appletView.jsp
folder/image/image1.gif
I would like to check if image1.gif exist. if yes, then load and display it in applet, but I having problem on the how to specify the file location.

Assuming image1 is in the same folder as the applet:
          InputStream is;
          byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
          URLConnection urlc = null;
          try {
               URL a = new URL(this.getCodeBase(),"image1.gif");
               urlc = a.openConnection();
               is = urlc.getInputStream();
               int len = 0;
               ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
               while ((len = is.read(buf)) > 0) {
                    bos.write(buf, 0, len);
               // close the inputstream
               is.close();
          } catch (IOException e) {
               try {
// image1.gif probably does not exist
                    // now failing to read the inputstream does not mean the server did not send
                    // any data, here is how you can read that data, this is needed for the same
                    // reason mentioned above.
                    ((HttpURLConnection) urlc).getResponseCode();
                    InputStream es = ((HttpURLConnection) urlc).getErrorStream();
                    int ret = 0;
                    // read the response body
                    while ((ret = es.read(buf)) > 0) {
                    // close the errorstream
                    es.close();
               } catch (IOException ex) {
                    // deal with the exception
          }

We bought a reconditioned IMac and time capsule,about a month ago the hard drive died and only left our files on the capsule which could not be retrieved from the time capsule so it got stored as a file on the operating system

Our IMac's hard drive died and we thought great we bought a time capsule to back up the immages and files,except when we had the hard drive replaced the time capsule did not recognize the newer opperating system and would not reboot the files back,so the apple store tech loaded them into a file folder and loaded them to the main screen and erased the time capsule,the problem now is how to load this file back permenantly and watch video's that are stored,when in I Photo when I try to view video content I get a message stating that I may need to download more software to support this format.

If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

How can I access restored pdf files after an operating system reload?

was running Windows 8.1 w/ latest updates. developed network properties errors. backed up all docs and restored PC back to Windows 8. Now, the restored pdf file security settings will not allow opening.

Gosh. I found that I need to open the properties page for a pdf file; go to the security tab and click the advance button. Then click 'change' to the right of the owner line, and add me as a user, and then give myself full permissions.
OK, NOW, how can I do this globally at one time to affect all of my pdf files?

Unable to run a Batch File Operating System Command

Using XI 3.0, I am unable to run a Batch File Operating System Command After Message Processing.
My Batch file:
gpg -se -r BOA3RSKY --armor --passphrase-fd 0 %1 < C:\Progra~1\GNU\GnuPG\gpgin
My Command Line (ID scenario)
exec "cmd.exe /c C:\Progra~1\GNU\GnuPG\boagpg.bat %F"
If I execute
exec "cmd.exe /c type C:\Progra~1\GNU\GnuPG\boagpg.bat >xis.txt"
It displays the contents of boagpg.bat file in xis.txt.
I just don't understand why when I run the batch file, I would expect an %F.asc encrypted file in the same directory as the %F unencrypted file.
Any ideas?
or will I need Basis to create commands that will allow me to run GPG from XI Command Line?

How Forms can execute operating system files

How can we create a button which when pressed can execute an exe file from the operating system....
Please help me soon

That's very simple.
Check the host built-in.
You may have something like the following:
PROCEDURE run_rep (x_file in varchar2) IS
-- runs a report not using run_product
-- thus not opening reports background engine
cmdstr varchar2(200);
the_username varchar2(20);
the_password varchar2(20);
the_connect varchar2(20);
pl_id paramlist;
begin
the_username := Get_Application_Property(USERNAME);
the_password := Get_Application_Property(PASSWORD);
the_connect := Get_Application_Property(CONNECT_STRING);
cmdstr:='R30RUN32.EXE module='| |
replace(x_file, '.rep', '')| |'.rep userid='| |
the_username| |'/'| |the_password| |'@'| |the_connect| |' usesdi=yes';
host (cmdstr);
END;
This is something that really works.
In like manner you may run any OS command.
If you wish the command not to display anything on screen, just do:
host(cmdstr, no_screen);
RTM first.
Best of luck,
BD

System.IO.File.Exists And set IIS

Hi all.
I want Check file exists in SharePoint webpart.
So I found class the System.IO.File.Exists.
---source---
string path = @"\\nar-cla500s3\memo\test\skill\print-001.xls"; <-- return only false
            try
                if (System.IO.File.Exists(path))
                    Label.Text = "true";
                else
                    Label.Text = "false";
            catch { }
----source-----
If i wirte LocalPath(@"C:\memo\test\skill\print-001.xls), I Can get True.
My all APP's processID is win\lx13040020, And win\lx13040020 can access <\\nar-cla500s3\memo\test\skill\print-001.xls>
But I got only false...
is this double hope problem? I want check exists from file server.
I need your help, Thank you.

Hi,
I will not recommend to change the settings from IIS. This fixes your problem but might create more. Setting the value to 'disable' means impersonation not in action and all resources will be accessed using app pool account instead of currently logged in
user. If you would run your code inside SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivil... then you could bypass the impersonation without changing IIS settings. Now disabling the impersonation you add the risk of security breach as all users can access what app pool can
access. For SharePoint site, I don't think you should change settings from IIS.

Problem in jar file with respect to operating systems

Hi all,
I am creating a jar file in windows operating system, When I deploy it in AIX machine the application is not starting up? There is any operating system specific commands to create jar files?
Any ideas.
Thanx in advance for your help.
Sekhar

I am starting the application through websphere admin
console. When I am starting it is showing error
message that the application unable to start.That you are using WebSphere is a very important bit of information you failed to provide!
WebSphere can be configured to be very picky about what it allows! If your program does not require WebSphere to run then try running it outside of WebSphere.
Also, make sure that the WebSphere container is executing using a version of Java that is compatible with your Application.

Operating System authentication

Hi,
I have a question about Operating System authentication:
How can I find out the OSDBA and OSOPER groups after I installed Oracle?
Is there any data dictionary view to find out this groups.
I run Oracle 9.2 on Sun Solaris and want to change from password file authentication to operating system authentication.
Thanks for your help
Bernahdr

If they exist they will be in the file /etc/groups. If not, they need to be created by your sys admin.
