Displaying files from a local filesystem not in Webserver Root

I have been attempting to display a file from a local filesystem with no luck. Is there any way, with something like UTL_FILE, to read in a file (A pre-generated report from Funnel Web) and display it through a custom portlet? I have created a provider/portlet to use, however, I cannot seem to find the right combination of PL/SQL to accomplish this task. I am by no means a PL/SQL guru. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks.

You can use URL component in the applications tab,for this purpose.
(Create a URL component with URL pointing to ur local file system, which is under web server directory.)

anomaly jade,
You only need to use the serial number during installation.
Have you, at least seemingly, been able to install, and then you are unable to start up?
If that is the case, you could try to reinstall using the full three step way:
Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

Copying file from a local computer into mapped LAN share.

I tried to copy a file from a local computer into a Z: disc (a LAN share). I tried to use every method i found on the internet. Using io, nio.. nothing works. It works well on the local computer, but not through LAN. It says that there is not enough of system resources to go on (i'm talking about big files.. more than 200mb... small files are accepted).

Hi,
Flash itself has no filewriting capabilities other then the
SharedObject
stuff.
But why can't you call a php script? You could install
apache, PHP and
MYSQL on the computer running the Flash app and get it all
into the
database in one go.
Otherwise you either need to get going with AIR (Adobe
Integrated
Runtime), or use a wrapper application like Adobe Director
(which has
tons of ways to write to file through it's plethora of
Xtras.) Director
may be 'a bit' hard on your budget if you only use it for
this purpose
though.
The XMLSocket is for connections to some server, local or
remote, not to
a file.

Upload and save an Excel file from a local machine to SAP

I am looking for a transaction which allows me to upload an Excel file from a local machine to SAP and save this file (the users should be able to edit the file in SAP afterwards).
Then I would like to open and read the data from the file with the help of a function module which works as a background job.
Unfortunately, I cannot use the application server because our users do not have the authorization to save files on it. Besides, the application server is not able to process Excel files.
Thank you in advance.
Stephan Klumpp

Hi Stephan,
You can do this using OLE technology. Bu you will have performance issues.
Can you check the below demo programs? It has similar functionality. I am able to create excel sheet from sap and also able to save the data in the sap.

I cannot view PDF in Firefox at the first time but once I manually open the PDF file from my local computer, I can view other PDF files via Firefox webbrowser

I install Adobe Acrobat 9 in my laptop which runs on windows 7. I use Firefox 3.6.8 and have the problem with the PDF file. The problem is I cannot open the PDF file in Firefox web browser at the first time I launch firefox. It shows a warning box without any message. Only OK button is shown so I can close it. However, if I manage to open the PDF file from my local computer by just using adobe acrobat itself then the PDF can be opened in the Firefox web browser. I followed the instruction on the mozilla help but nothing works for me. The problem still exists. I wonder if anyone have the same problem like me and know how to solve this. Thank you so much

Hi there!
I cannot help you, but I think we have a common problem: We got a system here running Vista SP1 with Acrobat 9 standard on it. When we open a pdf file it works normally, but when we open another pdf file, we see the first one in that second window.
Think that missing option to watch several files within a single window-thing messed up more than meets the eye ... but as we just purchased the 15 licenses, we have to use version 9.
I didn't find any clues on this problem, but I will post any new hints I get.

? Some pdf files from the web will not open, some will.

Some pdf files from the web will not open, some will. I am using Adobe Reader 10.0.1 on an 8-year old puter I have just upgraded to 2G of RAM. It worked fine before with 256K. When a file won't open I get error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again (103:103). Have uninstalled and reinstalled all Adobe products several times. Ideas?

Good luck with that. Adobe10.0.1 is a bug infested BAD program. Look at the posts relating to this issue for the last 3 days. Many, many problems. Support is no help.

Transfer file from WIN local station to LINUX server

Hi,
is there any way to transfer .jpg or .pdf file from windows local station (eg. D:\test.jpg) to linux server?
I found some release of ftp pl/sql package to transfer from one server to another server (linux to linux) but
how to transfer from local station to server.

Any help
Thank you

I'm a little confused about how Apex comes into play (or how you want it to)?
Are you just pushing files from your machine to a linux box, or are you looking to create a file load application for end-users with a File Browse item in Apex, and then drop what you uploaded onto the server?
If it is just really wanting to ftp from your machine to a linux box, try an app like FileZilla FTP Client (provided you have rights to the linux box).
Thanks,
Ron

What can I do when web pages with scripting display ok from a server but not locally?

I have html and java script in the same folder path, both on a server and locally. The pages display correctly when accessed from the server, but not when accessed locally. Is there a change I can make to Firefox to solve this problem?

An address starting with c: wouldn't be any kind of domain name. C: is the drive lettering system DOS and and later uses. By default, A: and B: are reserved for your first and second floppy disk drive. All hard drives are then named C: through Z:, if you have that many. C: is normally your startup disk.
Anyway, their PDF file is incorrectly linked to a file directly on the C: drive of someone's computer. It's not going to work no matter what you do.

Lately pdf files from the Web do not display properly; what is wrong and how can I fix it so I don't have to use IE?

I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?

My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh
I must agree with pgwebgirl!

RAW CR2 files from my Canon G11 not displaying thumbnails in SL finder. Why

I just loaded some CR2 RAW files from my Canon G11 last night. They displayed perfectly in iPhoto 09 but when I opened the folder the image files are in SL's finder I got icon placeholders which but no image icon display. I have loaded all the latest updates... Is SL no yet compatible with G11 RAW Cr2 files? Or do I not have something set up correctly as of yet?

HI,
Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file: com.apple.QuickLookDaemon.plist file to the Trash and restart your Mac.
