Compression via command line vs finder

I have an executable that is stored as a package file, or folder.  When I right-click on the file and compress it, I end up with a zip file that decompresses to the same thing.  So far so good.  I've been unable to do the same thing via the command line.  I tried zip, which ends up saving the contents of the package file, but does not recreate the executable when unzipped.  I also tried gzip, but didn't get even that far.  Trying to create a tar.gz file didn't work either.
Is there a way to do this?

Yes, ditto is the right tool as zip does not support resource forks
"Support for some Mac OS features in the Unix Mac OS X port, such as resource forks, is expected in the next zip release"
Ditto supports OS X:
"ditto will preserve resource forks and HFS meta-data information when copying unless instructed otherwise using --norsrc Similarly, ditto will preserve extended attributes and Access Control Lists (ACLs) unless --noextattr or --noacl is passed."
Also, tar should have worked.

  • Adobe Reader 11 (XI) won't open file via command line

    Hello,
    I have posted this question to probably inapropriate topic earlier today, so I am repeating it again.
    I installed newest Adobe Reader XI today and when I tried to open certain pdf file via command line, it reported a syntax error. Now, this syntax worked so far on versions 9 and 10  (I checked today with them and it is working), so my question is - where can I find new syntax, if there is any? Googling didn't help. Or what else could wrong?
    In previous versions I was able to open pdf file (on page 5) like this (all was taken from Help file "Open parameters")
    "CompletePathToAdobeReader"/A"page=5""CompletePathToPDF",
    ie
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"/A"page=5""d:\V2\DataSheet.pdf"
    but now - not that it doesn't open specific page, but it doesn't want to open file at all.
    edit:
    Operating systems running: Windows 7, Windows XP
    Thank you.
    Message was edited by: v604

    Yes, it reported correctly becuase there is a syntax error in your command. Try spaces between the /A switch and open parameter. Try this:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /A "page=5" "d:\V2\DataSheet.pdf"
    Hope this helps.

  • Assessing Command 'Analyze Source Files' via Command Line when running TestSTand Deployment Utility

    Our Software Configuration Manager is running the TestStand Command Line Deployment Build Tool (Ref: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-38947).
            When he builds the application,  the code will not be at the same location it was in development. 
    If you are Manually running the TestStand Deployment Utility, This is not a problem because everything is relative in the workspace.   Simply go to the Distributed Files Tab (of TestSTand Deployment Utility) and hit the, "Analyze Source Files" button.  This finds the required files and apparently creates an updated hard path to be used during the build (probably in the *.tsd).
    PROBLEM:  We auto-run the Command Line Deployment Build Tool (Command Line), and we do not have access to the, 'Analyze Source Files' command.
                As a result, our build consist of many warnings and the output is missing many files (the location of the files have not been updated).
    If we could access the 'Analyze Source Files' Command via command line, that would fix the issue. 
    FYI:  We use an automatic builder called Quick Build as our builder.

    Unfortunately it looks like Analyze Source Files does not have a command equivalent for the command line based on this article and attached PDF:
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-38947
    That may be a good post for the TestStand Idea Exchange for consideration in future versions of TestStand.

  • Error -402 upon installing an extension via Command Line

    When I try to install my extension via command line, i receive the following error message:
    "Failed to install, status = -402!"
    What does this error code -402 mean?
    I found someone with a similar problem in the forums: Re: Extension Manager CC failed to install extension
    He/She had file names containing non-ASCII characters. But i couldn't find any non-ASCII characters in my project or extension.
    Thanks in advance,

  • How to merge multiple documents via command line (Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.3.2)?

    I'm searching solutions to merge multiple documents (all stored in one folder) via command line or batch file to a single PDF-File...
    Is there a way to do this?
    Finaly I want to control this from a application written in MS-Access. So, perhaps there are some features already integrated in Access to do this?
    Thanks for answer!

    If you have some programming experience you could probably do this using VBA from within MS Access to control Acrobat via OLE.

  • [SOLVED] How to Crop an MP4 Video via Command-line?

    I have ffmpeg, mpg123, and mencoder. Does anyone know of a way I could use any of those to crop an mp4 video via command-line? I am trying to take off the black space above and below a video. Thanks in advance!
    Last edited by tony5429 (2009-04-12 00:12:57)

    I don't think it's possible to crop without re-encoding, but you can crop from the command line with ffmpeg and mencoder. Not sure about mpg123 - I think that's for playing audio but I could be wrong there.
    Anyway, with ffmpeg you can do cropping by using -croptop, -cropbottom, -cropleft, and -cropright. So if you wanted to crop 16 pixels off of the top and the bottom, your command line would look something like this:
    ffmpeg -i <input file> -croptop 16 -cropbottom 16 <video encoding options> <audio encoding options> <output file>
    With mencoder you use the "crop" video filter, like this:
    mencoder <input file> -o <output file> -vf crop=320:208:0:16 <other options>
    where the "320:208:0:16" means that the resulting picture is 320 pixels wide, 208 pixels high, and the 0:16 is the x,y position of the cropped area.
    These command lines are just really very basic examples - ffmpeg and mencoder have a LOT of options. Way too many to explain here. If you don't believe me, just try reading through the mencoder man page sometime. (There's an online version of it at: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1.html)

  • Setting IIS W3C Extended Log File settings via command line, registry or configuration file

    I am currently in need of a way to set IIS W3C Extended Log File settings via command line, registry or configuration file.  More specifically the 'Bytes Sent (sc-bytes)' and 'Bytes Received (cs-bytes)' settings that are not enabled by default. 
    If anyone knows where I can locate these setting (outside of the GUI) for all IIS versions that would be greatly appreciated.

    I believe I have found a valid solution. You must have the WebAdministration module loaded.  I hope this helps someone.
    Use the following syntax to view current W3C fields:
    Get-WebConfiguration -filter system.applicationhost/sites/sitedefaults/logfile | select-object -expandProperty logExtFileFlags
    Use the following syntax to set W3C fields:
    Set-WebConfigurationProperty -Filter System.Applicationhost/Sites/SiteDefaults/logfile -Name LogExtFileFlags -Value "Date,Time,ClientIP,UserName,SiteName,ComputerName,ServerIP,Method,UriStem,UriQuery,HttpStatus,Win32Status,BytesSent,BytesRecv,TimeTaken,ServerPort,UserAgent,Cookie,Referer,ProtocolVersion,Host,HttpSubStatus"}

  • Turn on "Real-time preotection" via command line

    You could do a regedit command to silently import a .reg file with the setting in it:
    create a .reg file from the following key:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Microsoft Antimalware\Real-Time Protection
    Name: DisableRealtimeMonitoring
    Type: REG_DWORD
    Data: 0
    Then import it silently with this command:
    regedit /s C:\ExamplePath\Example.reg
    You could also do a PowerShell command:
    Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Microsoft Antimalware\Real-Time Protection' -Name DisableRealtimeMonitoring -Value 0

  • How to see via command line blocked mails

    Im having a problem...i have a C100 Ironport appliance and i want to know via command line, how to grep and see mails that never went delivered.
    For example...i know that someone, like [email protected] send to my exchange server an email...but in exchange never entered. So i assume that it was filtered by Ironport.
    I go to the command line, use grep and 13 and search for [email protected] and i see something like this

    I dont have any email in the local quarantine... and i want to know how to track what happened to those emails that never entered to my exchange server.
    Is there any command?
    Than you!

    Wanted to add that you can shortcut the "grep" process by putting everything on one line.
    grep -i "Mid 3977209" mail_logs
    grep -i "ICID 8813638" mail_logs
    grep -i "From: " mail_logs
    basically
    grep -i "pattern" mail_logs
    -i ===> ignore case
