Checking List of Specific Files exists in Folder

Hi all,
Please help and advice
business promises that they drop 10 Different Files with TimeStamp.
1. QHP_Group_Association_Benefit_Periods_20140117104957
2. QHP_Out_Of_Pocket_Limit_20140117110805
10.QHP_Strategy_20140117110230
I have a requirement where I have to start SSIS process Only if all 10 files are available. If any file is missing Dont start any process.
Please help me How to check all files needed are available in a Folder using SSIS?
Thanks
Kodi

I would perform this task by using a Script Task the System.IO classes. The task would have access to an SSIS variable that was the directory path. The task would get a listing of the files in the directory. Another Boolean package variable would be set
to True if all ten file where present. A conditional expression on the workflow using this Boolean variable would control whether execution continued or not.

How to check if a specific file exist and which exit code to use ?

Hi, First I'm not a scripting guy and I know almost nothing about VB scripting.
I have a deployment of 6 tasks and I want to make sure that step # 2 will not be process if it failed in step #1, and so on for the 6 task.
To do this, i have to run a vb script before installation or uninstalltion on each steps
I'm trying to use a script (not from me) that i have modified for pre-uninstallation of software and also post-installation of the software.
Pre-uninstallation: The script will look if the specified "exe" exist on the server and if so, than it will run the msiuninstall "application_name".
If the uninstallation is successful, the post-installation script will check if the "exe" file exist again on the server, and it shouldn't find it (because it was deleted from the uninstallation), than it will return an exit code of successful
to run the next process.
Here an example:
Step 1: Uninstall "Software#1" with msiuninstall Software#1.exe command
Step 2: Uninstall "Software#2" with msiuninstall Software#2.exe command
Step 3: Install "Software #3"with an .exe extension
Step 4: Re install "Software #2" with an .msi extension
Step 5: Re install "Software #1" with a .msi extension.
Step 6: Send email to confirm the deployment is successful
So i need to validate that step #2 will not process step #3 if it failled on # 2. It need to validate if the file exist before and after.
At the end, Step 6 should send an email to confirm that the 6 steps of the deployment was completed without errors.
Any idea how to do it ?
Many many thanks for all the help !
A desperate guy :)
This is what i have
'This script will look if an .exe file exist for a specific application.
'=============================================================================================
path = WScript.Arguments.Item(0)
set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If objFSO.FileExists(C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Enterprise\EnterpriseWS\web.config) = true then
exitCode = 0
else
exitCode = 1
End If
Wscript.Quit exitCode

Is it possible to pickup a specific file from a folder?

Hi
I am wondering whether it is possible to pick a specific file from a folder. I have a shape where I have got a filename and I need to look for it in a folder.
Is that possible?
And how can I achieve this? The next step is to pick the file up and transfer it to another location. So basically in pseudo code I need to ask my defined folder with a filename as parameter. Get the file and move it to another folder.
Suggestions are most appreciated. Thanks

Assuming you are using orchestration, you could
create an assembly, install it in the GAC, add a reference to it in your BTS
project, and call it from an Expression shape to resolve the receive
location. You would only really need one static method in a class. Be sure
to add a reference to Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.dll.
Example:
using Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM;
namespace Phil
public class OrchestrationHelpers
public static string ResolveReceiveLocationName(string
inboundTransportLocation, string receivePortName)
BtsCatalogExplorer bts = new BtsCatalogExplorer();
bts.ConnectionString =
"SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=BizTalkMgmtDb;Trusted_Connection=True;Network
Library=DBMSSOCN;"
foreach (ReceiveLocation location in
bts.ReceivePorts[receivePortName].ReceiveLocations)
if (location.Address == inboundTransportLocation) return location.Name;
return null;
In your Expression shape within your orchestration, assuming a message
called "MyMessage" and a string variable "receiveLocationName":
receiveLocationName =
Phil.OrchestrationHelpers.ResolveReceiveLocationName(MyMessage(BTS.InboundTransportLocation),
MyMessage(BTS.ReceivePortName));

How can I create a custom formula that checks if a PC file exists? (CR10)

Post Author: lgayosso
CA Forum: Formula
Hello,
I need to create a formula that validates whether a PC file exists or not to display a message ('File Found' or 'File not found'). I created a custom formula that displays the appropriate message based on a report field composed of the FilePath + FileNameWithExtension that works correctly if the field includes a value or not (Basic Syntax below):
If {ctDocumentImages.ImgPath} <> "" Then Formula = "File Found"Else Formula = "File not found"End If
Now I want to validate that the {ctDocumentImages.ImgPath} value corresponds to an existing file; that is, I need to check that the file specified at {ctDocumentImages.ImgPath} location truly exists to determine that the file is actually 'found'. How can I accomplish this?
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Lucio

( my file connection name was CrystalReports_Reports.File Name) I have generated a report, that shows all my rpt file names, size, last updated.... etc )
Go to database expert, create new connection, select file system data, your starting directory will be
genplex\E\JEMS51_Server\Imaging\Int\2007\..... you can then report on the file names found in that directory / subdirectory, etc... When creating the link you can select all files, or just *.rpt for example
Ok, so you define more than one connection on your report to be able to access the File System Object, right? The problem is that my reports are generic and meant for distribution for customers where no generic base folder will exist. The value of the starting directoy is then unknown, FilePath+Name then can be any value.

Populate updatable drop down list based on files in the folder path

Hi,
I am a beginner in labview. I am stuggling on where to start.
Here's what I need to do.
I want to create an updatable drop down list. It can be automatic upon opening the program or manually update by clicking an update button. The drop down list will list all the filenames that are in .cvs format. These files are stored in a folder path. Insider the folder, they are stored in different subfolders, the drop box should be able to find those files inside the subfolders. Once the user select a filename from the list, the program will read the data inside that file and import into an array so I can display the data.
I have an idea on how to display the data, but I don't how to populate the drop down list based on the files in the folder, make it updatable and then import that user selected file's data into the the array.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks, Ruth

Yup, ListFolder with a pattern of *.csv. Then use a property node on a combo box or ring to set the items in the drop down. Here is some free training if you are interested in learning more general LabVIEW tools.

Checking to see if files exist not working as expected.

Hey, so I've set up a script that determines the artist playing on iTunes and sets the background image to a preselected picture of them. I want to expand this to allow different pictures of the artists, and after a few attempts, decided to use a time based system. However, some artists have 2 images (named Artist1.jpg and Artist2.jpg), whilst others only have one (Artist.jpg). I can get the scripting right for if all artists have 2 images, yet am having problems with the system determining if certain files exist.
who is the artist playing, and myNum is either 1 or 2, and changes based on the time, both set earlier in the script and verified to work.
set MultiWall to ("/Users/ethan/Pictures/Music Wallpaper/" & who & myNum & ".jpg")
set SingleWall to ("/Users/ethan/Pictures/Music Wallpaper/" & who & ".jpg")
tell application "System Events"
                   if not (exists MultiWall) then
                                                       tell application "Finder"
                                                                      set desktop picture to file SingleWall
                                                       end tell
                   else
                                                       tell application "Finder"
                                                                      set desktop picture to file MultiWall
                              end tell
                                        end if
end tell
I've tried many variations of this, from less variables to more, restructuring it and whatnot and it just isn't working for me. Thanks all.

If you are still having difficulties you may like to try this method:
set myPath to "/Users/neville/Desktop/test" & ".png"
if (do shell script "/bin/test -e '" & myPath & "'; echo $?") is "0" then
tell application "Safari" to open myPath
end if
It should work if you copy and paste it.
Please note the combined single and double quotes. Don't put a space between them. You may not need the single quotes if you have control over the path. Most people would opt for 'quoted form of' but I prefer concise code.

IXML - Checking if a specific node exists in XML data

Hi,
I´m reading XML data by using iXML classes. One XML file I´m reading contains header and
item data.
Right now I´m starting with reading the header attributes and then read all nested nodes and their attribute data. That works all fine, but now I had the error, that the XML file wrongly didn´t contain the items.
My XML reading method then ended up in a dump because the node was null:
l_node = l_iterator->get_next( ).
Can anybody give me an advice, how to check at the beginning of reading my xml data, if a specific node (in my case the node for items) exists in the XML data? If not, I want to stop with an error message. I want to check that at the beginning, before reading all element data, to keep my method structured.
Thank you very much!

Hi,
You can create a filter and set that filter to the iterator. If this is done the iterator returns you only the node with a specific node name or node ID.
You can also check the parsing in the following WIKI code gallery
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/JoDmAQ
Subroutines create_set_filter_attribute and parse_xml_file would be helpful.

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.

Is possible search all the files in one folder and get list all with the same extension.??

Hi,
I would like to get, if it is possible, do searching in one determinate folder and get all the files with the same extension, For example, Give the *.pou and get all the files on one list of the files in this folder and sub-folders...
If it is possible i would like to see any example.
Thanks a lot, Fonsi.

Hi Dennis,
I got your advise, I download the openG (i had problems, and downloading directly and install one to one).
Ok, i got but i have one problem, which i can't solve. I entry the promt to search and put the directory to save, later i push 'Do it' and it search the files, show the paths and number, then save in the folder and finally show the window , all ok!.
The problem is with the target path, when i want use the browse, it doesnt run properly. I want select one carpet, and it demands one file, i dont understand why??, i changed the options browse but it didnt work. Also i would like when i put one path if folder doesnt exist, directly create it and save the files, if exist copy it.
Thanks for all!. I attached the file in lv 7.1

(every document file of every folder in folder thePath) as alias list

Normally you can coerce Finder object references to aliases. In this case a bug in the Finder is getting in your way.
set aList to get every file of every folder in startFolder
This is returning invalid object references - ones not even the Finder can resolve at a later date.
It seems to drop one level of hierarchy when building the object specifiers in response to that whose clause. You can avoid the Finder bug by using some alternate means of building up the file list.

Hi Bill,
That's not really a bug. In this line:
set aSel to (((every document file in folder thePath) & (every document file of every folder in folder thePath)) as alias list)
two list are being concatenated which returns a list and 'as alias list' doesn't work on lists. You could do this:
set aSel to (every document file in folder thePath as alias list) & (every document file of every folder in folder thePath as alias list)
If there aren't anymore levels, then you can use 'entire contents':
every document file of entire contents of folder thePath as alias list
Note that if only one file is returned, then it will error because of automatic coercion, so it's better to do it your way if you don't know how many files there are. Then, you would use an error handler to trap the error. Here's what I've been using:
try
set aSel1 to (every document file in folder thePath as alias list)
on error from o
set aSel1 to o as list
end try
try
set aSel2 to (every document file of every folder in folder thePath as alias list)
on error from o
set aSel2 to o as list
end try
set aSel to aSel1 & aSel2
There is another way to coerce finder references to something usable in other applications that can't deal with Finder references. You can coerce Finder references to strings using text item delimiters.

Check if the file exists in the local machine...

Hi,
I am getting a problem while checking if the local file exists or not. In the first case the server is same as my local machine. When I try to test if the file exists or not using FILE.exists() it works because I am looking for the file in my machine.
But when I move the code in Unix the file.exists( ) tries to look in the unix box and not the local machine. My question is how to read it from the local machine?
We are using jdk v1.2.2 and Iplanet App server v6.0.
Thanks
Amol

What do you mean by "when I move the code in UNIX..."?

Read file from shared folder

Hi,
I want to read a file "test.txt" from the server "XY" (my own PC) with the shared folder "devices$"
I want to check first whether the file exists:
FileInfo myFile = new FileInfo(@"\\XY\devices$\test.txt");
if (myFile.Exists)
Console.WriteLine("exists");
else
Console.WriteLine("does not exist");
The result is always "does not exist" even though the file exists, why??

I tested your code, It works fine on my side. So i doubt whether the file
exists. Please check your file. Or do you have right to access the file?

File.exists() returning false eventhough in reality the file exists

Hi,
I am trying to create a PDF file using FDFMerge software.
For creating the PDF file, I need to execute a shell script from command-line, which I am doing using "Runtime.exec".
( I opted for this 'RunTime.exec' approach so as to read the output generated by the shell script.)
After executing the shell script and reading all the output generated by the process, I am trying to check if the PDF file exists in the location the process created.
When I do File.exists() its returning me "false" eventhough in reality the file exists.
Any guess, why this is happening?
Thanks in advance.
