Downloading files from http

I want to download the Boot Camp program from terminal.... i was wondering what commands are involved in doing that... i already have the Boot Camp Address... just need the commands... i remember doing a tutorial on CVS that had me download and extract something.. but i don't remember how i did that.... so... any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are a number of ways of downloading via the command line. One of the commnest is via curl:
<pre class=command>curl -o /path/to/save/file http://server.net/path/to/remote</pre>
Where /path/to/save/file is where you want to save the file when it's downloaded.

Could you provide the corresponding credential to access them?
If so, please make sure you have the proper right.
Please let other user try to download(not open) the resource to confirm the original resource is without problem.

Download file from ftp server

Can I download files from an ftp server by simply using the ip address or https:// url? I've only gotten this to work by using the "ftp//:" address in previous projects and I'm not getting this to work in many different attempts.
Here is one...
# FTP Config
$FTPHost =
"10.10.10.5"
$Username =
"admin"
$Password =
"12345678"
$FTPFile =
"test.log"
# FTP Log File Url
$FTPFileUrl =
"ftp://" +
$FTPHost +
"/" +
$FTPFile
# Create FTP Connection
$FTPRequest =
[System.Net.FtpWebRequest]::Create("$FTPFileUrl")
$FTPRequest.Credentials
= New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential($Username,
$Password)
$FTPRequest.Method =
[System.Net.WebRequestMethods+Ftp]::DownloadFile
$FTPRequest.UsePassive
= $false
$FTPRequest.UseBinary
= $true
$FTPRequest.KeepAlive
= $false
# Get FTP File
$FTPResponse =

Hi!
You don't need to specifically use an IP address. E.g can use
$FTPHost = "myrandomserver.mycompany.com"
$Username = "admin"
$Password = "12345678"
$FTPFile = "test.log"
# FTP Log File Url
$FTPFileUrl = "ftp://" + $FTPHost + "/" + $FTPFile

I used to be able to download files from the Harddrive of my Sony Handycam, but now it won't let me import them while going through "log and transfer." I have tried to update my settings, but this doesn't seem to work. Any help would be much appreciated

Hard Drive: The Hard Drive is on my camera (Sony Handycam)
Just needed some info on what is going on with your particular system.
Knowing the exact camera model will also assist us.
If this camera is standard AVCHD you should be able to connect with USB to Mac with FCE open and use Log and Transfer without all the fiddling around converting etc.
What FCE does during ingest is convert files to AIC. (Apple Intermediate Codec)
FCE cannot read the individual files in the BDMV folder, that's why all the converting is required when you use that method.
BTW: regards formatting drives/cards/memory on cameras; it is wise to use the actual device to format rather than a computer. This is a prime cause of read/write goof ups with solid state media. This applies to still or video cameras.
Keeping the COMPLETE card/memory structure in tact is vital for successful transfers.

Downloading files from a browser

I need to write an app that will download files from our clients and put it on our server. It is client initiated process from a browser.
I know the html type is "type=file" and when the user clicks it it brings up a file dialog. Then they can select a file name from their hard drive.
Now, when the user hits "submit" I want the file to download to our server. But how can I get an http servlet to control this process?

First of all, download is when data comes from somewhere to your local machine, Upload is when you send data from your local machine to somehwere. So, you are looking to UPLOAD data.
Second, if you search on here for references to 'upload', you will find exactly what you are looking for.

Can't download file from any browser and download manager

i confused wit my MBP, becaus MBP can't download file from internet ( via USB modem & Wi-fi)..
can you help me to fix it ??
i use iGetter, and it not responding to download, safari too..

I was able to download the trial from rarlab.com. What happens when you click on a download? You need to make sure you select to download the Mac version. The .exe files do not run on a Mac.
BTW, you might want to check out GUI Tar https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/14503/gui-tar
The other two sites also work for me. What exactly happens when you click on a link to download? Do you know how to find your downloads?

Downloading files from DVD or hard drive cameras

Is it possible to download files from hard drive or dvd cameras to be used in Premiere without using the capture function which needs to be done in real time?

Importing files from a DVD camcorder or other MPEG device, or Ripping DVD files rarely results in success in Premiere... do not be fooled by movie industry advertising into thinking that "DVD Quality Video" is suitable for EDITING... it is not... a DVD is designed to be for PLAYBACK only... and that includes trying to edit a Standard Def MPEG file!
Go to my notes page http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM
Click the internal link for editing compressed files... read
There are other products better suited to your task... but if you only have DVD type files, you should convert to DV AVI
The only SD files that Premiere likes are DV AVI type 2

Where can i get an example of Viewing wap, downloading files from wap site?

as we know, almost every simulator has this function. now i wanna write the same function via MIDP, how?
And, anyone know nextel i730, it's very weird that it cannot download file from the wap site but other phones can do it from the same site.
any help would be appreciated.

WAP = HTTP. Just open a http page in midp and read the data. Displaying WAP in MIDP is another thing, since it does not have facilities for that. Why should it anyway? All phones that hava java, already have a W(AP/EB) browser.

Download files from web to client

Hi,
I am trying to download txt file from the web and save it on the client using webutil_file_transfer.url_to_client. I am experiencing some problem which is connected to web util and says: The WEBUTIL object group is not available in this Form. WEBUTIL can not work.WebUtil error: oracle.forms.webutil.filetransfer.filetransfer.
Can somebodey suggest what is the problem or any other solution for downloading files from url and saving them on the client?

OK guys, i have done everything and web util finally (probably) works fine because i don't receive any error messages. Despite this i still cant download the file on the client machine.
ps. I don't receive any error message
here is the sample code , so you can try it if you want and suggest something

Seeks algorithms for downloading file from WWW

I have a big question for how many different ways for me to download file from WWW.
Can someone list those methods and the "Java offical" classes/libraries that needed?
Also which is the BEST and most EFFICIENCY?
Here are some methods:
1a. Download from html [bytes by bytes]
- Create a connection to the url (use Url)
- While not EOF
- Read the file (use BufferedReader)
- Write to another file (use BufferedWriter)
- Close all connection
1b. Download from html [line by line]
- Create a connection to the url (use Url)
- While not EOF
- Read the file line by line (use BufferedReader)
- Write to another file (use FileWriter)
- Close all connection
Can someone tell me which class I can use to monitor the connection? (i.e. the file size, connection speed, time required, size downloaded, etc)
Can someone tell me how I can compress the data before downloading it from the web just like those download managers?
Can someone tell me how I can divide the file as those download managers do?
Thx

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/readingURL.html
Also which is the BEST and most EFFICIENCY?It depends on a lot of things, particularly on the speed of your network connection.
Can someone tell me which class I can use to monitor
the connection? (i.e. the file size, connection speed,
time required, size downloaded, etc)There's a tutorial about input and output there too.
Can someone tell me how I can compress the data before
downloading it from the web just like those download
managers?You can't do anything to the file before it gets to your side of the connection. You must be mistaken about the capabilities of those download managers.
Can someone tell me how I can divide the file as those
download managers do?Not me.

}This program works fine for downloading files, over both http and https from my home. When I run this on my desktop in the office it can download files over http, but cannot download https files.
When I try to download files over https, I get the foll. exception:

at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:153)
at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:452)

at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsClient.doConnect(DashoA12275)
There are 2 differences here, one being that my office desktop sits behind a firewall and there is a proxy in between.
In the office I run the program as :
java -Dhttp.proxyHost -Dhttp.proxyPort TestServlet URL [filename]
eg.:
java -Dhttp.proxyHost=235.67.138.84 -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 TestServlet https://site.com/portal/Downloads/file.csv file.csv
This url requires authentication, the userid and pwd are hardcoded in the code.
Now, my problem is I cannot understand why this error would come. Is it because of the firewall or because of the proxy ?
Why is it that I can download over http successfully from my office desktop? If the problem is with the firewall or proxy, then even http protocol urls should give the same problem.
Please help.

If you are using HTTPS you should be setting

https.proxyPortnot the http.* ones.

About "Upload and download files from ADF into blob type colum."

hi
Using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 I have tried the example available for download from this blog post by Jakub Pawlowski:
"Upload and download files from ADF into blob type colum."
at http://kuba.zilp.pl/?id=1
First a thank you to Jakub for this interesting example.
I have a question about a PDF file that I uploaded using the example.
The file has a size of 10445518 bytes.
After I upload that file, the blob column has a value with a size of 10445516 bytes, 2 bytes less.
SQL> select file_name, dbms_lob.getlength(stored_file) from blob_table;
FILE_NAME
DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(STORED_FILE)
ADF-DeveloperGuide-4GL-B25947_01.pdf
                       10445516If I download that file using the example, it has the same size as the blob value, 10445516 bytes.
If I open the downloaded file, using Adobe Reader 8.1.1, it first shows this message:
"The file is damaged but is being repaired."
After that, there is not problem using the PDF file in Adobe Reader.
I have tried this with both Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox 2.0.0.11.
I have also tried this with other (smaller) files, and those upload and download correctly.
question:
Why are those 2 bytes lost during upload?
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

Hi!
I can only post you my code that works for me and as I said I had same problems but can't remember what solved them. My code:
public void fileUploaded(ValueChangeEvent event)
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    UploadedFile file = (UploadedFile) event.getNewValue();
    if (file != null && file.getLength() > 0)
      // here I have some messages written and a call to the method on AM to save the uploaded file to the DB
private BlobDomain newBlobDomainForInputStream(InputStream in)
    throws SQLException, IOException
    BlobDomain loBlob = new BlobDomain();
    OutputStream out = loBlob.getBinaryOutputStream();
    writeInputStreamToWriter(in, out);
    in.close();
    out.close();
    return loBlob;
private static void writeInputStreamToWriter(InputStream in,
                                               OutputStream out)
    throws IOException
    byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];
    int charsRead = 0;
    while ((charsRead = in.read(buffer, 0, 8192)) != -1)
      out.write(buffer, 0, charsRead);
   * Launch the upload - see fileUploaded() for actual upload handling.
   * @return null navigation event - we stay on this page
public String UploadButton_action()
    if (this.getMyInputFile().getValue() == null)
      FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
      FacesMessage message =
        new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_WARN, JSFUtils.getStringFromBundle("fileupload.emptyfielderror"),
                         null);
      context.addMessage(this.getMyInputFile().getId(), message);
    return null;
   * Setter for inputFile UI Component.
   * @param inputFile inputFile UI component
public void setMyInputFile(CoreInputFile inputFile)
    this.myInputFile = inputFile;
   * Getter for inputFile UI Component.
   * @return inputFile UI component
public CoreInputFile getMyInputFile()
    return myInputFile;
}fileUploaded is a valueChangeListener on inputFile and UploadButton_action is as the name says the action for upload button.
Hope this helps. If not, than your problem is probably not the same as mine was, although the message about file corrupted was the same.
Next thing you can check in this case is if your file exceeds max file upload size. I don't know the exact default value, but if the file is too long I think this upload logic will upload only a part of the file and save it to the DB which can also lead to the same file corrupted error.
You can set the max upload value in web.xml like this:
<context-param>

<param-name>oracle.adf.view.faces.UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY</param-name>

<param-value>5120000</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>

<param-name>oracle.adf.view.faces.UPLOAD_MAX_DISK_SPACE</param-name>

<param-value>15360000</param-value>
</context-param>

Download file from the web

Hey,
I'm struggling to download files from the web.
The first approach I though of was simply opening the url in Safari, but it would just open the file, not download it.
Then there is an application called "URL Access Scripting", but I can't figure out how it works.
That might sound stupid, since it has only a download and an upload command, but they do not work.
The download function asks for a file specification, what the #$^& is that?
I tried supplying a file, but to no avail.
For obvious reasons I can't make an alias of a not yet existing file, so what do I put in there?
It seems file specification is a deprecated format.
My last resort was running curl in a shell script, which works, but that feels hackish.
Is there any good way to do this?

Hi pepsel,
Let's take an example. Suppose that you want to download “UltiCalc Mac 2.5” (freeware) from [this Web page|http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/utilities/ulticalcmac.html]. You can proceed as follows:
--BEGINNING OF SCRIPT
set theURL to "http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=23023&cat=25&platf orm=osx&method=sa/ulticalc_mac.zip"
set theFile to "/Users/pierre/Desktop/My_download.zip" -- same extension as the file to download
tell application "URL Access Scripting" to download theURL to theFile
--END OF SCRIPT
Of course, you should replace “pierre” with the name of your own home folder.
Hope it can help.
