Create directory

Hello all,
I need to write a file into a specific server. I am doing that using OPEN DATASET.
The specified directory may not exist and it needs to be create
The problem is that this is being done in a background process so i can't use any of the GUI functions.
Thanks in advance
Nuno Silva

Hello,
That would be valid if the directory would always be the same.
But the directory changes depending on a few conditions, so i really need it to be created in the program.
Thank you
Nuno Silva

Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: File not found. The file might have been moved or deleted, or the file path might be incorrectly formatted for the operating system. For example, use \ as path separators on Windows, : on Mac OS, and / on Linux.

Hello,
Could you please list which options you are selecting when building a
source distribution (I am assuming you are using LabVIEW 8.0?).
Do you get this error when clicking on "Generate Preview" button when configuring source distribution properties?
Under "Distribution Settings" category, could you try checking the
"Disconnect type definitions and remove unuses polymorphic VI
instances" option and see if that helps with the build process?
Also I suggest Mass Compiling your VIs (Tools -> Advanced -> Mass Compile) before creating a source distribution.
If these do not help, could you attach your project with all the VIs it contains here?
Thank you and best regards,

View for "create directory"

Hi
Is there a dictonary view where i can find all the "virtual directory" which are created with the "create directory" command ??
Thanks.

ah.. :)
So I should add, that in general those view names are "plurals" (ending with an S), e.g. dba | all | user _ objects, tables, tab_columns, indexes, synonyms, triggers, sequences, users, and so on.
(And the v$ dynamic/stats view names are often in singular, like v$metric, process, session, datafile, tablespace - but this "rule" seem to be deteriorating with new views added).

Can not create directory error while creating database

i am creating database using dbca in oel but when i try to do so i get an error saying can not create directory pawii
and pawii is the sid
actually oracle is installed on u01 and i am creating database in u02
but this error is not allowing me to create database but when i try to create database in uo1 the database installed successfully but this is not happening when i try to create database in another mount point u02

Geting error while creating a dir through CREATE DIRECTORY command

Hi Gurus,
When I'm trying to create a dir through this command with logged in as SYS
CREATE DIRECTORY pump_dir AS 'd:\temp\pump_dir';
I'm getting the error
Error starting at line 1 in command:
CREATE DIRECTORY pump_dir AS 'd:\temp\pump_dir'
Error at Command Line:1 Column:18
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object
00955. 00000 - "name is already used by an existing object"
Any ideas how I can create a dir and grant access to a different user.
Thanks
Amitava.

I checked and there is no such directory. I guess it is not that simple, the error I mean.Actually it is , please see,
ORA-00955:     name is already used by an existing object
Cause:     An attempt was made to create a database object (such as a table, view, cluster, index, or synonym) that already exists. A user's database objects must have distinct names.
Action:     Enter a unique name for the database object or modify or drop the existing object so it can be reusedSo as Sb mentioned, check that which object is using the same name that you are trying to assign to this directory object and either rename or drop the object if you want to use the same name only. If not, you can always use another distinct name for this directory object .

Having problems installing firefox error msg says error creating directory c:\programme files (x86)\mozilla firefox\searchplugins

Hi, I have been having problems with Internet Explorer 8 using Windows 7 so wanted to install Firefox but unable to as get a message saying error creating directory c:\programme files (x86)\mozilla firefox\searchplugins

Thank you guig2! Followed your bleepingcomputer.com link above and found the problem was my permissions on C:\Users\Bill\AppData\Local/Temp. It was not "Full Control" for my User or Administrator. Updated the two lines to permit full control for folder, subfolder and files. Ran perfect.

Burrito install fail, trying to create directory in wrong place

Below is the error log from my attempted install. Of the 23 errors 22 are being unable to deleted things it never created. The error that seems to be the initial cause is this:
Unable to create directory "\\drnas02\users\CADU\gae04\..\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview
\\drnas02\users\CADU\gae04 is a home directory I have on a network drive, but the installer isn't trying to create the directory there, it is trying to put it one dir up (with the ..) where I don't even have read permissions. I never specified the gae04 directory to the installer, but I assume its defined as some sort of application data directory as one other app created a directory there.
Here is the full error log.

Indeed, our core installer team has agreed to supply the home folder path token we need for this fix, in time for the Burrito release.

Hi Glenn,
Thanks for the suggestion. Nope, it's not listed. The only thing listed is my Time Machine volume.
After a reboot, Time Machine seems to be working. It's making backups on schedule and the logs look good, not reporting any strangeness.
A bit bummed about these phantom errors that go away on reboot. I'll keep on eye on the error/reboot frequency.

VMS, create directory and the chamber of secrets

Ok, here I am bumbling around in the dark. Here is the scenario I am developing an application using PL/SQL under the constraints of the SCT Banner web form system. The Banner function calls create the web page on the fly from data obtained with PL/SQL. What I would like to do is incorporate a java function into the web page. The only method available to me is via Banners function call twbkfrmt.p_printmessage (my_string); Here is the 'Plan' (caution: may be seriously flawed). I thought I could store my java code in a the CLOB field of a table, access it with a cursor and insert the code into the generated web page like so: twbkfrmt.p_printmessage (my_java_from_the_CLOB); I am having troubles loading the .js into my table. Here is how I attempted to accomplish this and the result (and to add insult to injury, it is on a VMS system!):
CREATE TABLE js_holder (
js_name varchar(30),
js_body CLOB );
CREATE DIRECTORY foos as 'USR$DISK:[CLEMENSD.SQL_EDIT]';
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Load_CLOB IS
dest_clob CLOB;
in_file BFILE := BFILENAME('foos', 'supernote.js');
dst_offset number := 1 ;
src_offset number := 1 ;
lang_ctx number := DBMS_LOB.DEFAULT_LANG_CTX;
warning number;
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE(100000);
INSERT INTO js_holder(js_name, js_body)

Is the directory owned by the same schema that owns the procedure?
If not did you GRANT READ and WRITE to the proc's schema?
If so then you might want to create a simple external table to confirm that your directory and permissions are valid.

Wow you've sure got a lot of threads going on this one (Ok Waz zup? and VMS, create directory and the chamber of secrets
My first question is have you checked to ensure that the file and directory permissions will allow oracle to read the file you want? Have you tried dumping your supernote.js file in the jobsub directory, or chaning it's (and/or the directories) protections?
From the documentation for create directory: "Oracle Database does not verify that the directory you specify actually exists. Therefore, take care that you specify a valid directory in your operating system. In addition, if your operating system uses case-sensitive path names, be sure you specify the directory in the correct format."

Create directory utl_file errors

I thought that I would be able to answer my problem with all the help I've seen online. I don't seem to be able to.
I have the following code (snippet) below from my procedure:
v_file varchar2(100);
v_direc constant varchar2(30) := 'c:\output\';
v_testfile UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
BEGIN
v_testfile := utl_file.fopen('C:\output', 'JohnsUIICounts.txt', 'w');
open csr_uii;
loop
fetch csr_uii into csr_uii_a, csr_uii_b, csr_uii_c, csr_uii_d;
exit when csr_uii%NOTFOUND;
utl_file.put_line(v_testfile, csr_uii_a || ' ' || csr_uii_b || ' '|| csr_uii_c || ' '|| csr_uii_d);
end loop;
I logged on to SQL Developer and did:
CREATE DIRECTORY V_DIREC AS 'C:\output\';
GRANT WRITE ON DIRECTORY V_DIREC TO PUBLIC;
I got the message back that the directory was created. When I go to the c:\ drive, I don't see the directory.
Any ideas? I've gone through all sorts of iterations like changing the drive from c to e, different folder names, upper and lower case, nothing works.
Victoria

Thanks. Now that I understand that, I created the directory on the server. I reran the code. I'm still getting:
ORA-29280: invalid directory path
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 33
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 436
I notice that on the Windows Server, when I create the directory (as an admin user), I check on the properties, and it keeps staying read only. I can modify it, but the change doesn't save. I heard something about group permissions. Is it possible that the problem is because of permissions on the server? I would think that might be the real problem at this point.
Thanks,
Victoria

Creating directory

How can I create directory(folder) in the file system with pl/sql. I know you can create file or write in to a file, in any folder in file system with utl_file. but what about creating a folder then a file in to it.

depending on your os/oracle version, you can use dbms_scheduler to do that.
ex in AIX5L/10.2.0.2
$ cat /tmp/x
#!/bin/ksh
mkdir /tmp/xxx
SQL> exec dbms_scheduler.create_job(job_name=>'createdir',job_type=>'EXECUTABLE',job_action=>'/tmp/x',start_date=>sysdate,enabled=>true)
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.or you can use java

It looks like makepkg only runs install in the fakeroot. Is there any way a binary installer can be run inside the fakeroot?
Am I going in the right direction, or is there no way to run a binary installer like this?
Are there other binary installers that are run like this?
Best regards,

CREATE DIRECTORY Does not Create Any Directory in My File System Hard Disk

create or replace directory emp_dir
as 'D:\emp_direc';
Main Question:
*1. Transaction succeeded, but i have not seen emp_direc created in my D: drive. I'm running Vista Home Edition x32. Any idea why directory does not show up?*
Optional:
Extra info:
after creating a directory i did: - avoid comment sign
--create table oldemp ( fname char(25), lname char(25) )
--organization external
--(type oracle_loader
-- default directory emp_dir
-- access parameters
-- ( records delimited by newline
-- nobadfile
-- nologfile
-- fields terminated by ','
-- (fname position(1:20) char,
-- lname position(22:41) char)
-- location ('emp.dat')
--parallel 5
--reject limit 200;
Table created successfully, then I did
describe oldemp;
Name NULL Type
FNAME CHAR(25)
LNAME CHAR(25)
2 rows selected
Extra questions:
*2. emp.dat carries all the table data which can make data more portable to different oracle servers. However, it is one time operation, once table is populated, i can not update, insert, delete any rows. Thats what i know, if i'm wrong please let me know. If what i said is true, just confirm it if you don't mind...*
*3. Parallel 5, allows five oracle servers to deal with the emp.dat file at the same time. So won't there be any conflict! Maybe one server wants to read a certain data while the other server wants to delete it. Can you clarify please....*

<snip>
From the fine SQL Reference Manual found a tahiti.oracle.com, in the prerequisites for the CREATE DIRECTORY command:
For file storage, you must also create a corresponding operating system directory, an ASM disk group, or a directory within an ASM disk group.
Your system or database administrator must ensure that the operating system directory has the correct read and write permissions for Oracle Database processes.
Privileges granted for the directory are created independently of the permissions defined for the operating system directory, and
the two may or may not correspond exactly. For example, an error occurs if sample user hr is granted READ privilege on the directory object but
the corresponding operating system directory does not have READ permission defined for Oracle Database processes.

Oracle 10g enterprise manager create directory

Hi,
I am new to using Oracle 10g on Linux and struggle with creating a new directory using the Enterprise Manager "wizard".
I go to Database Instance > Directory Objects > Create Directory objects
and try it with \home\oracle , then test the file system it says directory not available.
pressing OK and continueing with my data dump does not work because I get the error "The directory does not exist"
I wonder why it has not been created?
moreover how do I delete the directory objects. I cant find a delete button using the enterprise manager browser ui ?

I have heard this "read a book" a thousand times and gues what. I am

I also tried the intuitiv DROP DIRECTORY in sqlplus as well but...
the directory does apparently not exist (altough I can see it clearly there in the list).That could be an ownership issue. Who does the directory belong to? who are you logged on as?
