Dynamic OS Command file path

In the OS Command process type of a process chain, is there a way to change the file path depending on the system? In Prod the path should be different from the path in Dev. Right now, I have to manually edit it in each system. Can this be automated? Thanks.

Uday,
The paths depend on the file systems mounted.
the filesystems mounted will be on a single logical partition / tablespace in most cases and should not chang on system refresh.
A system refresh would be from PRD to DEV which would mean that the chains in DEV would have to be changed.
This will have to happen if you are using SM69/Process chain OS command.
You could however try something like this :
Option 1 :
Have both the paths in your script / batch file. then try reading the file .. whichever is readable wuld mean that the file is avail;able and can be loaded and then use the one for which the file exists.
Option 2:
Detect the system using a program in SE38 and then execute the script internally in the program using the SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE...

Take Source file path in sender adapter from an environment variable .

Hi,
Is it possible to take source file path(half file path) dynamically in sender file adapter.
Please suggest any alternative to this.

Hi,
One option, use Dynamic Configuration and set the values in the Mapping.
By the ways, the File Directory and the Filename are taken runtime in the file adapters after transportation.
Only if you are using FTP will you need to key in the FTP addess user id password etc.
Refer -- same way try for File adapter

Ps Note : I have personally never tried it to use the Dynamic Configuration for file path. But you can try.

Dynamic file path problem....

Hello & thanks for your attention
I am trying to modify the action script(2) of a XML photo slideshow
I want to make it pull the photo array from a dynamic XML file
Yet nothing I try seems to be working - I was hoping someone could look at these snippets and tell me if I'm doing something incorrectly
Objective:
To make the swf file - pull its photo array - from a dynamic XML file path
Scenario:
http://www.reallivingtours.com/tours/viewTour.php?id=2092
When that URL is called by a browser
An XML file called 2092.xml is created in a /tmp/ directory
viewTour.php passes the ‘dynamic’ file path to the swf via the params
<param name="movie" value="slideshow.swf?file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
<param name="flashvars" value="&file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
The original AS2:
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load("settings.xml") : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
The modified AS2 - I've done:
var filePath:String = new String();
filePath =_root.file;
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(new URLRequest(filePath)) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
Can you see anything I'm doing incorrectly?
Thank you very much for your time and attention
Benn

Thanks to webqa - I've gotten a little closer to resolving this
my debugging tells me that i have an undefined error
I'm thinking - xml.load(filePath)
is not recognizing the string as a file path to the XML
Does anyone have any suggestions? thank you
var filePath:String = new String();
filePath =_root.file;
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
_root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(filePath) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);

How to get images dynamically from database without file paths in the table field

I have a MS-Access database. I am working with ASP.NET. In the database there is product table in which I have "CodeNo" as a field which is a text field, and the product codes like "SM-R-2035". I also have another field "Image" which is also a text field and which have a file path in it corresponding to the particular product Image (e.g. Images\Products\SM-R-2035.jpg). So far every thing is ok. I have to update this site very frequently and lots of images are added each and every time. Its a tedious work to type the paths and file name every time and it also take a lot of time.
What I am asking is : Is it possible to get images from a specific folder at runtime which is referenced by the "code no" itself and not the file path from the database. (Say at run time the "code no" is referenced from the database and the corresponding image is loaded dynamically from the specified folder). In other word I want to avoid the tedious work of typing.
Can any one help with this issue. Any other simple suggestions are welcome.

All you need to do is simple concatenation to obtain the path for the image file. You didn't mention whether you are using VB.Net, C# or some other language to do your coding.
If the code in your database is SM-R-2035, the file name is SM-R-2035.jpg and the path to the images foilder is Images\Products\SM-R-2035.jpg, Conceptually here is what you need to do:
dim code_var
dim path_var
code_var = the code you obtain from your relevant field in the database
path_var = "Images\Products\" & code_var & ".jpg"
Now path_var is what you would call to obtain the image from your images folder.

Backup DB with dynamic sql - want to substitute in dbname and disk file path

Re: Backup DB with dynamic sql - want to substitute in dbname and disk file path
Hope I can explain this. Below is a small snippet of code. I want to set @SQLTemplate_TSQL once at the top of the script and then execute the SET @SQLCommand and sp_executesql in a loop that reads a list of databases. It all works, except for the
BACKUP DATABASE. Right now it evaluates when the SET @SQLTemplate_TSQL is evaluated. I want it to evaluate when it is executed. I want the DB_NAME() of the USE @dbname.
-- change @dbname and @dbbackuppath
DECLARE @SQLCommand NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @SQLTemplate_TSQL NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @dbname varchar(128) = 'Bank04'
-- one time setting of @SQLTemplate_TSQL
set @SQLTemplate_TSQL =
DECLARE @dbbackuppath varchar(128) = ''''d:\backups''''
IF RIGHT(@dbbackuppath, 1) <> ''''\''''
SET @dbbackuppath = @dbbackuppath + ''''\''''
SET @dbbackuppath = @dbbackuppath + DB_Name() + ''''.bak''''
PRINT @dbbackuppath
BACKUP DATABASE ' + DB_NAME() + ' to DISK=''' + QUOTENAME(@dbbackuppath, CHAR(39)) + '''
-- Execute this several times over different databases
SET @SQLCommand = '
USE ' + QUOTENAME(@dbname) + ';
EXEC(''' + @SQLTemplate_TSQL + ''') '
PRINT @SQLCommand
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLCommand

Here is a stripped down version of my code. Someone writes a script. I then take the script and seperate it by GO statement block. Each GO block gets its own row into the
#SQLTemplate_TSQL. I then replace single quote with 4 quotes and run it. Then I run against my list of databases. I am unable to get the BACKUP DATA base to work with this model.

Dynamic Save File Path

Hey Everyone,
So I deal with a lot of files each day that need to be saved according to their lead code, meaning that there is a folder that holds thousands of sub folders that have the same name as this lead code on a server.
So since I have the lead code in the file name I'm trying to use that in conjunction with the file path to tell illustrator where to save it with Javascript. Also the idea of a dynamic save path is awesome to me.
Here's what I've got so far, it's not working yet but I feel like I'm close.
Dynamic Save Path////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#target illustrator
var sourceDoc = app.activeDocument;
var sourceName =sourceDoc.name;
var customerNum = sourceName.substring(0, sourceName.length - 8)
    customerNum
    sourceName = sourceName.substring(0, sourceName.length - 3)
//alert(sourceName)
alert(customerNum + " Customer # saved")
alert(sourceName + " File name saved") //end
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var doc_Path = File("I:\GRAPHICS"+ "/" + customerNum);
var substituir_Path = doc_Path+ "/" + customerNum;
//alert("sourceName: "+sourceName+"\nsourceDoc_Path: "+doc_Path+"\nsubstituir_Path: "+substituir_Path);
function SaveFileAsFXG (dest) {
    if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
        var saveOptions = new FXGSaveOptions();
        var fxgDoc = new File(dest);
        app.activeDocument.saveAs( fxgDoc, saveOptions );
var destFilePath = substituir_Path;
SaveFileAsFXG (destFilePath);
alert("done!") //end

I figured it out, I had it removing too many characters. I can get away with hardcoding this in my script because of how we name files where I work. also I realized I had a left over part in there that I didn't need.
I also got rid of the dividers to make it easeir to read here online

Create table space command with no specification of data file path.

I am using following command for creating table space in oracle 11g
CREATE TABLESPACE testTbSpace DATAFILE 'dataFileName.dbf' SIZE 50M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 32767M NOLOGGING"
But it is creating datafile dataFileName.dbf at disk at following path
echo $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
I dont want to create datafile at this path and also dont want to specify data file path in 'create table space' command.
Is there is any parameter,which i can set and above command start to create dataFileName.dbf at that path

Copy full file path+file name in Midnight Commander

Hi!
How can I copy a file's full path with the file name in Midnight Commander?
If I press Ctrl+Alt+Enter it's shows this to me in the command line but I can't copy this route.
If I mark a file with 'Insert' and than if I would like to paste this for example in Mousepad or any other text editor with Shift+Insert or Ctrl+V it isn't works.
(Relatively newbie sitting here so if the answer is complicated please write a step-by-step instruction )

Well,I did a lot of research on the internet and I found the best solution.
- choose the file,press 'Ctrl' + 'Shift' + 'Enter'
- after that you can see the full file path + the file name in the command line (bottom of the screen)
- Select the text with 'Shift' + 'Mouse Left Click' (drag it across the whole command)
- For copy the text, press 'Ctrl' + 'Insert'
- For paste, press 'Shift' + 'Insert'
This is still pretty damn slow,I wanted to do it with a single key combination while the file is selected but it looks impossible.
But at the same time I have started to use Ranger file manager which is also runs from terminal,extremely fast,easy to use and if I press 'Ctrl' + 'Insert' on a file it is copies the full path with the name of the file itself. Just perfect.
I won't mark the thread [SOLVED] because if anybody knows a better method for this in Midnight Commander (with a script or whatnot) maybe will write it down for us. I hope...

Concatenate the field SY-SYSID, SY-UNAME and SY-DATUM for the file path

How do I set the default file path for the Place command?

I keep my graphics files for each document in a particular folder. Every time I open an existing InDesign document and place a new image I have to browse back to that location - even though all of the previous images in that document came from the same folder. InDesign does not remember the file path that was used previously in the document. This is very annoying.
IS THERE A WAY TO SET THE DEFAULT FILE PATH, OR LOCATION, FOR IMAGE FILES?
I have looked through the preferences, searched the forums and internet, but I have not found any reference to setting default paths. Is there a setting like the one in MS Word called "File Locations" on the Options toolbox?
Thank you.

Since you're working in ID on Windows, you can take advantage of a neat trick in Windows. Copy the file path out of the File Explorer address bar and paste it directly into the Place filename field. That will jump you directly to the desired volume. For example, let's say I want to place a graphic located at X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working Source Files\Links. I copy that entire path from the File Explorer address bar, go to InDesign, select File|Place, and press Control + V to paste that path into the filename field. I press the Open button and Shazam! I'm there instantly, without a bunch of navigation.
You can do the same thing in the File|Save As and File|Export fields. Let's say you want export a PDF file from InDesign to the volume X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files. First copy the desired file path from the File Explorer window. In InDesign, select File|Export, click anywhere in the filename field, and press the Home key to move the insertion point to the front of the filename. Press Control + V to paste that path in front of the filename, then add the backslash character (\). The filename will now look like this: X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files\Filename.pdf. Press the Save button to bring up the Export Adobe PDF window. Select your desired PDF preset, press the Export button, and the PDF file will magically appear in the desired volume.
This sounds really complicated, but it's not. In practice, it only takes a few seconds. I probably save an hour's worth of needless navigation every day with this technique.
