Directory or Folder creation in server

Hi,
Is it possible to create a folder or directory in the server through code..Is there any function module or class there..
If there means plz give the sample code..
Another part..After creating the folder is it possible to give full access to the folder..

hi check this code ,
For browsing (checking the folder exists or not) you can use the following code:
code
CALL FUNCTION 'EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_PATH'
EXPORTING
EPS_SUBDIR = 'log'
DIR_NAME = 'DIR_TMP'
IMPORTING
DIR_NAME =
EXCEPTIONS
INVALID_EPS_SUBDIR = 1
SAPGPARAM_FAILED = 2
BUILD_DIRECTORY_FAILED = 3
OTHERS = 4
if sy-subrc 0.
"the directory not present.
endif.
[/code]
For creating directory, you have to know the exact path of your server, and then you can use the following code:
code
path = '
172.52.72.651\qfilesvr400\S109XXXX\usr\sap\TST\SYS\test'.
CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_CREATE
EXPORTING
DIRECTORY = path
CHANGING
RC = rc
EXCEPTIONS
DIRECTORY_CREATE_FAILED = 1
CNTL_ERROR = 2
ERROR_NO_GUI = 3
PATH_NOT_FOUND = 4
DIRECTORY_ACCESS_DENIED = 5
DIRECTORY_ALREADY_EXISTS = 6
UNKNOWN_ERROR = 7
others = 8
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

Folder Creation On Server

Dear All,
I had created a web-application which allows a user to create a named folder with his/her choice on the server which works locally but when i deployed the war of it on the Godaddy it throws a exception as

   } As I know, the only way to create folder is java.io package. Is there some thing wrong with my code. How can I sort out this issue.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks,

Hey Balus,
Thanks for replying. I have read on net that the Java Security Manager can set various permission in Policy file inside the tomcat/conf directory. Is the exception bcoz of the the SM of GoDaddy might not have granted permission for writing or say creating folder or uploading file at runtime to a particular folder inside my webapplication.
I apologize, I might not have used correct technical terms above as I am a newbie and hope you will understand what i am trying to say.
Awaiting your reply.

Folder creation in server

Hi Everybody,
I have requirement to create folders/ sub folders dynamically in a given path (server) and copying a pdf in the created path. Client is using ORACLE 10G AS with Windows.
Thanks in Advance

What kind of application (Java, Forms, PL/SQL etc.) you have that you need to have this created/copied from?

Home Folder Creation w/Active Directory

If this has been asked a million times, just point me to the url for the answer...
I have done the leg work and have the "magic triangle" working - I can login and auth to AD and get my preferences from OD. I want our user's home folders to reside on our Windows server. I have shared out \\server\students on the Windows server and in AD I am pointing their home folder to our Windows server, but I can't get the permissions right. When I point a new user's home folder in AD to our Windows server, it creates the folder \\server\students\jtest.
When the user logs in, none of the subfolders are created. Can someone give me some pointers on how permissions need to be set so the subfolders are created on first login?
This is all pretty new and I'm happy that I got the triangle to work - if I can get this all important piece, I'll be set.
Thx in advance!

Hi
A lot of this depends on how many OUs you have; how deep they go; and how many directories you have nested in each OU or the particular OU the directory for home folder creation is within. The accepted 'recommendation' is not more than 3 deep - generally. Having said that I have made it work with OUs 7-10 deep. Gets trickier after that.
In my experience the non-creation of expected directories is generally down to permissions not being assigned properly - as you've guessed. Essentially users must be given read/write access all the way down the nested directories. I have seen permissions assigned correctly to a parent folder, with a set of different permissions applied to the next folder down and the next one along again with the correct permissions applied. Folder creation fails when permissions are set in this way.
What is interesting is the log-in does not fail though you are greeted with the usual "the home folder exists on an SMB or AFP Server etc" dialog box when getting to the desktop. You sometimes get this at the log-in window as well. Although you can also see the message for other reasons - usually down to poor DNS configuration.
You should be able to log in as the local admin and look at the system.log in Console. You should see an error starting with 'NSurl etc etc. . . ' listed. If you do that's an indication it's a permissions problem.
Beyond this and without being there it's difficult to tell?
Hope this helps, Tony

Dreamweaver 6. I can't reference root folder on test server - any ideas please?

Dreamweaver 6. I've set up a copy of a site onto a test server. All fine other than a problem with links to the root folder.
The web URL for test server is set up as http://localhost:8080/bhtownsite/ but when I set up a link to the site root e.g. /photos/pictures.php, instead of going to http://localhost:8080/bhtownsite/ the system ignores the 'bhtownsite' folder and goes to http://localhost/photos/pictures.php which of course doesn't exist!!
I've no hair left to pull - any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

@Murray,
I don't have a Root Directory field in my Testing Server definition (CS6 12.2).
Server name: Testing Server
Connect using: Local/Network
Server folder: C:\wamp\www\MySiteName\
Web URL: http://localhost/MySiteName/
Is that something new in CC?

Creating a folder in application server in background.

So as always I am looking for inputs/suggestions or knowledge if you had come across scenario like this one.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
You could create a system command in SM69 to create a directory and then use the function module SXPG_CALL_SYSTEM to invoke the command and pass in the directory name as a parameter at run time.

Automating Folder Creation

Here's what I want to do. I'm trying to automate client folder creation. I have a directory called clients. Every time I create a new folder in the clients folder, I'd like for it to automatically ask me what I'd like to name the folder, then I would like it to create 6 directories inside the created folder titled "legal" "spec files" "correspondence" "modules""graphic design" and "archived materials".
How would I go about that with automator?

A couple of options. The first uses automator and a shell script, but you would run the workflow which asks for a folder name instead of you creating it first, as you requested. The second uses Folder Actions so that when you create a new folder in your clients folder it will ask for a name and create the folders.
Automator Method:
1) From Files and Folders, drag over a "New Folder" action.
2) Enter a default name for the folder in the Name: field (or leave blank)
3) Select your Clients folder in the Where: field
4) Click the "Options" button and tell it to "show this action when the workflow runs"
5) From the Utilities, drag over a "Do shell script" action
6) Select the /bin/bash shell
7) in the Pass input field select "As arguments"
8) Enter this code mkdir -p $1/legal/ $1/spec files/ $1/correspondence/ $1/modules/ $1/graphic design/ $1/archived materials/
Save this workflow and run it when you want to create the new folder. If you have quick keys, launch bar, Quicksilver, or the like, you could set up a shortcut...or, you can use cmd-space to call up spotlight and search for you workflow name and launch it from spotlight.
For the Applescript option:
I had some glitches with it in that it seemed to re-run the script after I changed the name. I couldn't figure out if the name change drove the script to run again. Also, after creating the new folder, you have to wait a few seconds for it to trigger. Kind of annoying, I thought.
First, copy this script to a new Script Editor script (Applescript folder).
property dialog_timeout : 30 -- set the amount of time before dialogs auto-answer.
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
try
tell application "Finder"
set theFolder to item 1 of added_items
set response to display dialog "Please enter a folder name:" default answer "New Client"
if button returned of response is not "Cancel" then
set the name of folder theFolder to (text returned of response)
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"legal"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"spec files"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"correspondence"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"modules"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"graphic design"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"archived materials"}
end if
end tell
on error theErr
display dialog theErr
end try
end adding folder items to
Save it as a script in your user/Library/Scripts/Folder Action Scripts/ folder. Run the Folder Actions Setup script in the Applescript folder and attach this script to your "Clients" folder:
1) Click on the Enable Actions checkbox
2) Click the "+" button in the left pane and find your clients folder
3) Click the "+" button in the right pane and find your script you just saved.

Robocopy not copying the folder creation date

We migrate the data between 2 Windowsfile servers using robocopy and it works finew ith issues. Only issue is it doesnt copy the folder creatiopn date from source to destination server, it does copy the file creation date without any issues. Command
we use is as below.
robocopy.exe %1 %2 /COPYALL /MIR /ZB /R:10 /W:2 /TEE /DCOPY /LOG+:robocopy_%3.log
This command is called using a batch file where we specify the source and destination using the below syntax.
call Robocopy_Module.bat "C:\Backup" "C:\Restore"
Kindly advise if this is normal behaviour , if not what is the correct command used to copy the Folder creation dates.

I was using like this
Go to CMD prompt,
RUN as Administrator
Type
robocopy "source path" "destination Path" / MIR
It will copy including time stamps.
or create seprate folder in a destination place and copy everything into that folder.
It will work.

F4 for folder search on server

Hi gurus,
I've created a report which has a selection value fora folder on the server. The idea is to select a folder on the server just like FM TMP_GUI_BROWSE_FOR_FOLDER does for local folders on the PC. Is there a function module/class I can use for this.
kind regards,
Wim

Hi,
Try this way.
"use the below function module it can use both for application and presentation...
    CALL FUNCTION 'F4_DXFILENAME_TOPRECURSION'

        fileoperation   = 'R'
      IMPORTING
        o_path          = w_path.
"or use the below function module..

Transfered Local files disappear when put in a different folder on remote server

Hello everybody,
I know this question is kinda asked a lot, but I cant seem to find the right answer that relates to my problem.
I am trying to "put" my local files on my remote server. I managed to get two files in the right folder on my remote server.
But now every single time I put one of the other local files on the remote server, it comes in the main folder (that works fine). I then have to drag it to the right sub-folder in
order for my website to work. When I drag these files into this sub-folder, they disappear on the remote server.
I keep putting the local files in the remote server and this works, but putting them in the sub-folder of the remote server doesnt work.
Does anybody know what the problem could be?
I try uploading from the hosting website, but my website doesnt work, I checked all the files, the links everything works. Therefore I am now trying it through dreamweaver.
Also I check the remote server online and the two files that did work, showed up there, so its all connected fine.. :s
Im using Dreamweaver CS5.5
Any help would be great, I need to get this website uploaded tomorrow for my uni assignment, also if somebody knows a good WORKING freehosting website, please let me know
Thanks,
Maartje

Yeah the folder on the remote server is htdocs , I am putting all the files in the htdocs folders, otherwise it says my website doesnt work.
Your remote site is not properly defined. Put "htdocs" into the Root Directory: field of the Remote server's definition. Now your files will always upload to the correct location.
Does the order of the files need to be the same too?
No. They are ordered in DW in the way that you have specified by clicking on the associated column headers.

How do I keep my new finder window preference set to open a certain folder on the server?

Since switching to Lion, my new finder window preference keeps resetting itself to default. When I open a new finder window I want it to be a certain folder on our server. This setting was persistent in Snow Leopard. Now I have to keep setting it back, sometimes more than once a day. Please help, its very time consuming to have to click through to get to the folder I use most often every time I open a finder window.
