  • Installing Itunes 7.3 - "specified path is too long"

    I am trying to install Itunes 7.3 for Windows on an XP machine and I get error that the "specified path is too long"
    The path given is:
    "C:\Windows\winsxs\x86Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b8.0.50727. 762x-ww6b128700"
    I have 2 options. Retry and Cancel. So I have to cancel and then it rolls back everything done to that point.
    I was able to get around this, though by creating that directory manually. Then when I hit retry, it gave me another long dir name like above. I created that one as well. And then it did this 3 more times, then it continued on to finish installing. Why did I have to manually create the directories that had these long unusual names?
    Thanks,
    Scotto

  • Installation error for iTunes 7.5 on XP: Specified path is too long

    I just downloaded the most recent version of the installer, but every time I run it, I get this message midway through the "Copying new files" step:
    +The specified path is too long:+
    C:WINDOWSwinsxsx86Microsoft.VC80.CRT1fc8b
    3b9a1e18e3b8.0.50727.762_x-ww6b128700
    There's no denying that it's long, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do about that. I mean, I'm not the one who specified the path.
    Clicking Retry just returns the same error endlessly, and clicking Cancel causes the installer to roll back all its changes and close itself.
    What gives?

    This is very frustrating. 
    The more I use Windows built-in backup the more fragile it seems to be. 
    The D drive is a local drive and the path is valid. 
    Running check disk finds no problems.  The drive is mostly empty. 
    I tried with and without the anti-virus software, same problem. 
     There are no other server errors to indicate a problem with the drive or the path. 
    I ran vssadmin list writers, and none of them returned any errors. 
     Why would the backup return an invalid path error, for a path that is valid? 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks much,
    James.

    Hi Sriram,
    Thanks for getting back to me!
    I'll try to mail them to you before the end of the week.
    A quick question:
     if the backup failed to find and copy a single file or directory (for whatever reason), why does it abort the whole process? 
    The file in question was not critical, so having it missing from the backup would only have been a minor inconvenience. 
    Obviously, you want to log such an event very clearly, but it does not make sense to me for it to kill the whole process... 
    Will this be improved in future versions?  I have to admit, I've not seen much backup software stop because of such a trivial error, except maybe "copy" from the command prompt.
    I think the built-in Window Server 2008 R2 backup software is very promising, and overall, I like it better than the old NT Backup crud. 
    However, from my limited use, it still seems rough around the edges; too many glitches and problems, something you don't want to see from your backup software.
    Thanks much,
    James. 

  • SharePoint 2010, Visual Studio 2010, Packaging a solution - The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

    Hi,
    I have a solution that used to contain one SharePoint 2010 project. The project is named along the following lines:
    <Company>.<Product>.SharePoint - let's call it Project1 for future reference. It contains a number of features which have been named according
    to their purpose, some are reasonably long and the paths fairly deep. As far as I am concerned we are using sensible namespaces and these reflect our company policy of "doing things properly".
    I first encountered the following error message when packaging the aforementioned SharePoint project into a wsp:
    "The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters."
    I went through a great deal of pain in trying to rename the project, shorten feature names and namespaces etc... until I got it working. I then went about gradually
    renaming everything until eventually I had what I started with, and it all worked. So I was none the wiser...not ideal, but I needed to get on and had tight delivery timelines.
    Recently we wanted to add another SharePoint project so that we could move some of our core functinality out into a separate SharePoint solution - e.g. custom workflow
    error logging. So we created another project in Visual Studio called:
    <Company>.<Product>.SharePoint.<Subsystem> - let's call it Project2 for future reference
    And this is when the error has come back and bitten me! The scenario is now as follows:
    1. project1 packages and deploys successfully with long feature names and deep paths.
    2. project2 does not package and has no features in it at all. The project2 name is 13 characters longer than project1
    I am convinced this is a bug with Visual Studio and/or the Package MSBuild target. Why? Let me explain my findings so far:
    1. By doing the following I can get project2 to package
    In Visual Studio 2010 show all files of project2, delete the obj, bin, pkg, pkgobj folders.
    Clean the solution
    Shut down Visual Studio 2010
    Open Visual Studio 2010
    Rebuild the solution
    Package the project2
    et voila the package is generated!
    This demonstrates that the package error message is in fact inaccurate and that it can create the package, it just needs a little help, since Visual Studio seems to
    no longer be hanging onto something.
    Clearly this is fine for a small time project, but try doing this in an environment where we use Continuous Integration, Unit Testing and automatic deployment of SharePoint
    solutions on a Build Server using automated builds.
    2. I have created another project3 which has a ludicrously long name, this packages fine and also has no features contained within it.
    3. I have looked at the length of the path under the pkg folder for project1 and it is large in comparison to the one that is generated for project2, that is when it
    does successfully package using the method outlined in 1. above. This is strange since project1 packages and project2 does not.
    4. If I attempt to add project2 to my command line build using MSBuild then it fails to package and when I then open up Visual Studio and attempt to package project2
    from the Visual Studio UI then it fails with the path too long error message, until I go through the steps outlined in 1. above to get it to package.
    5. DebugView shows nothing useful during the build and packaging of the project.
    6. The error seems to occur in
    CreateSharePointProjectService target called at line 365 of
    Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.targetsCurrently I am at a loss to work out why this is happening? My next task is to delete
    project2 completely and recreate it and introduce it into my Visual Studio solution.
    Microsoft, can you confirm whether this is a known issue and whether others have encountered this issue? Is it resolved in a hotfix?
    Anybody else, can you confirm whether you have come up with a solution to this issue? When I mean a solution I mean one that does not mean that I have to rename my namespaces,
    project etc... and is actually workable in a meaningful Visual Studio solution.

    Hi
    Yes, I thought I had fixed this my moving my solution from the usual documents  to
    c:\v2010\projectsOverflow\DetailedProjectTimeline
    This builds ok, but when I come to package I get the lovely error:
    Error 2 The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters. C:\VS2010\ProjectsOverflow\DetailedProjectTimeline\VisualDetailedProjectTimelineWebPart\Features\Feature1\Feature1.feature VisualDetailedProjectTimeline
    Now, the error seems to be related to 
    Can anyone suggest what might be causing this. Probably some path in an XML file somewhere. Here is my prime suspect!
    <metaData>
    <type name="VisualDetailedProjectTimelineWebPart.VisualProjectTimelineWebPart.VisualProjectTimeline, $SharePoint.Project.AssemblyFullName$" />
    <importErrorMessage>$Resources:core,ImportErrorMessage;</importErrorMessage>
    </metaData>
    <data>
    <properties>
    <property name="Title" type="string">VisualProjectTimelineWebPart</property>
    <property name="Description" type="string">My Visual WebPart</property>
    </properties>
    </data>
    </webPart>
    </webParts>
    .... Unless I can solve this I will have to remove the project and recreate but with simple paths. Tho I will be none the wiser if I come across this again.

  • Error on the reports with drill-through links on SSRS 2012 SP2 -- Invalid URI: The Uri string is too long

    Hi, We are migrating SSRS 2008 R2 reports to SSRS 2012 SP2. (PS. SSRS 2012 SP2 has been applied.) Everything went smooth expect some reports which were using reporting services. These reports have some drilin-through actions and was passing in a huge
    xml parameter. I referred to some other posts in which there were also some similar issues like "The Uri string is too long."  but they're different. My reports can be opened and the error only occurred when accessing the drill-through actions.
    As I know, Microsoft has provided the fix for the known issue "The Uri string is too long." in sp1 but it looks it can't cover this kind of situation since I have installed the SSRS SP 2. Is there any solution? In addition, there's no such
    issue on SSRS 2008 R2.
    Thanks,
    onizga

    Hi onizga,
    According to your description that you are migrating SSRS 2008 R2 reports to SSRS 2012 SP2, after migration you got some error like “The Uri string is too long” which only occurred when accessing the drill-through actions, right?
    Usually, the issue can be caused when you try to pass some parameters that cause the URL length to exceed 65,520 characters for a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services (SSRS 2012), you cannot render the report, and you may receive the following error
    message:
    The value of parameter 'param' is not valid. (rsInvalidParameter).Invalid URI: The Uri string is too long.
    This is an known issue and already have the hotfix SQL Server 2012 Service Pack1 Cumulative Update 9 (CU9) as you know, you can try to reinstall this hotfix to fixed this issue:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2916827 .Any issue after applying the update, please post it on the following thread or you can submit an feedback:
    http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/788964/ssrs-2012-invalid-uri-the-uri-string-is-too-long

    The original post is from 2010 so not sure if he found the solution or not.
    What happens if you open a cmd windows and type the following?
    echo %APPDATA%
    It should find something like:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming
    In this case username should be your login name.
    Do you have any problems installing other software?
    Some possibilities - perhaps you have a corrupt user profile.
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-performance/vista-installer-problem-p...
    Or perhaps you don't have all your updates and your installer needs updating.
    Search for: update microsoft windows installer vista
    Make sure you have the latest one.
    Hope this helps.

  • The input line is too long.

    I am a prentice on J2EE by using the Tutorial 1.4.
    - Problem:
    I keep getting this error message: "The input line is too long. The syntax of the command is incorrect." from the windows's terminal no matter what arguments I issued for the command asant right after I successfully executed command "asant build" under the directory of both <Install>/examples/web/bookstore and bookstore1 when I practice the topic of The Example Servlets on Chapter 11: Java Servlet Technology.
    The command and the arguments are:
    asant create-db_common
    asant create-bookstore-war
    asant package-bookstore
    asant deploy-war
    All of them have the same outcome:
    "The input line is too long.
    The syntax of the command is incorrect."
    I have tried to do the research on the google and ased some Java developer friends and school teachers; unfortunately, none of them can solve this problem.
    - Environment:
    The OS I am using is win2k professional. The commands were issued on DOS terminal. I have successfully built application server, and pointbase, deploy tool. I have utilize this tools and environment to run all the examples very well on Chapter 8: Building Web Services with JAX-RPC.
    The Server and PointBase were activated when I issued those commands.
    -New Problem:
    Even worse, after failing on running the Servlets Examples, I got the same error message when I go back to the Chapter 8's Examples and run the command "asant build" on the directory <install>\j2eetutorial14\examples\jaxrpc\staticstub.
    - tried solutions:
    (A) I checked the log from admin console and found this error message that was Severe:
    A "com.sun.enterprise.tools.guiframework.exception.FrameworkError" was caught. The message from the exception: "Unable to get View for viewDescriptor 'webApplications'"
    The root cause is "com.sun.enterprise.admin.common.exception.MBeanConfigException: Component not registered"
    See the HTML source for more detailed (stack trace) information.
    (B) I also after unistalling the Application Server from the directory of C:\Sun\AppServer, and reinstall the Server onto C:\AppServer; in addition endited the build.properties file under the directory of <install>\j2eetutorial4\examples\common on the line of j2ee.home=C:\Sun\AppServer to j2ee.home=C:\AppServer, I got the error msg as following:
    D:\Java\Tutorial\J2EE\j2eetutorial14\examples\jaxrpc\staticstub>asant build
    The system cannot find the path specified.
    The input line is too long.
    The syntax of the command is incorrect.
    where D:\Java\Tutorial\J2EE\j2eetutorial14\examples\jaxrpc\staticstub is the project I had successfully built before I tried to build on Servlet project.
    Can anyone or the tutorail's authors give me some helps? Thanks!

    This is a known problem of win2k...
    one of the solution is to shorten your J2EE path... e.g shorten c:\program files\sun\app_server to c:\app_server. i haven't tried this method personally though.
    the other solution is to use winXP. i have tried it n its working.

    Hi eric.jendrock,
    Appreciate your help; unfortunately, in my asant.bat script I cannot find the line you indicated even though I found the solution addressed in the FAQ as you instructed, too. The only ines I found are:
    :runAnt
    "%_JAVACMD%" %ANT_OPTS% -Dcom.sun.aas.installRoot="%AS_INSTALL%" -Djava.library.path="%AS_INSTALL%\bin;%AS_ICU_LIB%" -classpath "%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-se.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/admin-cli.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-admin.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/j2ee.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-ext.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-rt.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/commons-launcher.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/install/applications/jmsra/imqjmsra.jar";"%LOCALCLASSPATH%" "-Dant.home=%ANT_HOME%" org.apache.tools.ant.Main %ANT_ARGS% %ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS%
    goto end
    :runAntWithJikes
    "%_JAVACMD%" %ANT_OPTS% -Dcom.sun.aas.installRoot="%AS_INSTALL%" -Djava.library.path="%AS_INSTALL%\bin;%AS_ICU_LIB%" -classpath "%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-se.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/admin-cli.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-admin.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/j2ee.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-ext.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/appserv-rt.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/commons-launcher.jar";"%AS_INSTALL%/lib/install/applications/jmsra/imqjmsra.jar";"%LOCALCLASSPATH%" "-Dant.home=%ANT_HOME%" "-Djikes.class.path=%JIKESPATH%" org.apache.tools.ant.Main %ANT_ARGS% %ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS%
    goto end
    I however did tried to remove those lines with -Dcom and -Djava but kept the variables of arg0s, "%_JAVACMD%" %ANT_OPTS%. Here is the result I got:
    Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
    (to execute a class)
    or java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
    (to execute a jar file)
    where options include:
    -client to select the "client" VM
    -server to select the "server" VM
    Looks funnier. Do you haver any clue or better solutions? Thanks!

  • Security.Cryptography - The specified path is invalid. while accessing the private key stored in LocalMachine store

    Hello,
    I have C# dll which is invoked through a C++ cgi executable which is deployed on apache 2.2. I am getting the following error when I am trying to access the private key of a certificate which is stored in the Localmachine store. It works fine while
    debugging in visual studio.
    It also works fine when I try to access the same certificate from the current user store through apache.
    I have tried running apache as "SYSTEM", even then I get the same error.
    I have followed the right process to import the certificate into the localmachine store through mmc. 
    Error Message:

    The above error is not really helpful as it doesnt tell me which path is invalid as I am not passing any path in my code. I am just accessing the certificate through the X509Certificate2 store
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    This is probably because the worker process identity does not have read permission to the machine key store.
    And I agree with you. "The specified path is invalid" is a typical misleading message.
    You may need to clarify the difference between "SYSTEM- User" and "Current-user "through apache. Good Luck!

  • Specify Remote Folder - The specified path is not a remote shared folder

    I'm getting this error when I try to check a backup stored on a NAS.  When I attempt to recover from it, I pick "A backup stored on another location" then "Remote shared folder". 
    I put in the path: \\192.168.16.17\public\server\2014-01-24
    And what I get is the above error message: "The specified path is not a remote shared folder"
    The path clearly is a remote shared folder. If I paste it into explorer it opens fine, and I can copy/delete files from it.  What gives?

    That's correct; the folder I specified above contains the WindowsImageBackup folder.  I can access that folder fine in Explorer, but when I try to direct the backup to it it gives the error I mentioned: "The specified path is not a remote shared
    folder".
    Note that the error message you receive if you specify a folder which does not contain a WindowsImageBackup folder is "The specified remote shared folder does not contain a backup. Provide the path to a remote shared folder that contains backups."

    Did anyone came across such issue while deploying Orchard on Azure with TF service? If yes, how did you sort this freaking error?
    Thanks,

    Hi AltafB,
    For your situation, you can short the path for the source code. Or use a short path for build agent folder in your build definition. You can refer to the links below to solve your problem:

    Besides, since you deploy Orchard to Azure, you can also publish it directly using publish profile in Visual Stduio or WebMatrix directly.

  • Powershell Get-childItem: The specified path, file name, or both are too long.

    Hey Scriping Guys!
    I've been using a PowerShell script for a couple of years now to generate a monthly report showing the size of user folders on a number of departmental file servers.  It's working just fine on all file servers except one where the users have gotten carried away with creating sub-folders and using realy long descriptive file names.  The problem piece of script is this:
    $colItems = (Get-ChildItem \\192.168.10.5\marketing -recurse | Measure-Object -property length -sum)
    "marketing-serv\marketing: "+"{0:N2}" -f ($colItems.sum / 1GB) + " GB"
    The reply I get is:
    Get-ChildItem : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully
    qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name mu
    st be less than 248 characters.
    At G:\data\Server_space_Report\serverspace2.ps1:37 char:27
    + $colItems = (Get-ChildItem  <<<< \\192.168.10.5\marketing -recurse | Measure-Obje
    ct -property length -sum)
    Yes, the message is correct, however, when I connect to the server, right click the folder and chose properties it returns a size of 128 GB.  My questions are
    1. Why does clicking on folder properties not produce an error (what is it doing differently from my script)?
    2. How can I fix my script?
    Thanks,

    I am trying to clear up the older open posts on this forum. If this is still an unresolved issue for you please let me know. If you do not post back within one week I will assume it is resolved and will close this thread.

  • Get-ChildItem : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

    Hi, Im trying to get the whole path in my server, so i tried that with this following code
    Get-ChildItem $sourceFolder  -Recurse | ?{$_.PsIsContainer} |Get-Acl
    But then, it showed me somtehing like this :
    Get-ChildItem : The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
     I tried to find the solver everywhere and mostly they propose to change the path name, which is impossible, since I am working with my company server, and those folder have already there before i start to work here, then the other ask me to use robocopy,
    but all of the trick just dont work
    is there any way to solve this problem? thanks

    There is no simple solution to this. And it is not a limitation of powershell itself, but of the underlying NTFS file system.
    If the problem is that a folder with a name longer than 248 exists anywhere within your directory structure, you are hooped.
    If the problem is that some fully qualified path names exceed 260 characters, then, in those cases, the solution already given is to create a psdrive partway up the path from the drive letter or server/share root of the path. Unfortunately, the output produced
    will be relative to that psdrive and not to what is specified as the $sourcefolder.
    unless you already know where those problematic paths are, you might consider trying to trap those errors and have your script figure out where it needs to create psdrives. You might then be able to calculate the equivalent path for each file or folder and
    output that. the programming effort would be simpler to just created a psdrive for each folder encountered, however I expect that would be very inefficient.

  • Unexpected "result of the string concatenation is too long" error

    Hello,
    I am using Oracle Database 11.2.0.
    When querying my database with a common table expression which concatenates VARCHAR2 strings, I receive an ORA-01489 error although I'm doubting that I am concatenating more than 4000 characters.
    To be more precise, I have a table entity which basically stores XML elements including their parent element and their sibling position among its siblings. The CREATE statement for this table is listed below.
    CREATE TABLE Entity (
    ID NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    Name VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL,
    Parent NUMBER(10,0) REFERENCES Entity(ID),
    Sibling_Pos NUMBER(2,0) DEFAULT 0
    Now, I would like for all elements to be concatenated with their ancestor elements to a structure like this:
    "/root_element(sibling_pos)/.../ancestor_element(sibling_pos)/parent_element(sibling_pos)/current_element(sibling_pos)"
    (where root_element, ancestor_element, parent_element and current_element are just values from the name column of the entity table)
    In order to achieve this, I use a common table expression which concatenates the name and sibling_pos values as shown below:
    WITH entity_cte (lvl, id, path) AS (
    SELECT 1 AS lvl, id, '/' || name || '(0' || sibling_pos || ')' AS path
    FROM entity
    WHERE parent IS NULL
    UNION ALL (
    SELECT lvl + 1 AS lvl, e.id, entity_cte.path || '/' || e.name || '(' || cast(e.sibling_pos AS VARCHAR2(2)) || ')' AS path
    FROM entity_cte, entity e
    WHERE entity_cte.id = e.parent
    SELECT lvl, id, path
    FROM entity_cte e
    After inserting certain values, I get the ORA-01489 error, that the result of the string concatenation is too long. The maximum is referred to as being 4000 characters for VARCHAR2 in the oracle documentation and in various websites. Of course, it is clear to me by just using the common table expression like that, I could run into such an error. However, due to the structure of my XML documents, I doubted that the resulting strings would be more than 4000 characters long.
    So, I rearranged my query in order to count the characters to be concatenated instead of actually concatenating them. The query is stated below as well, the changes are marked bold:
    WITH entity_cte (lvl, id, path) AS (
    SELECT 1 AS lvl, id, length('/' || name ||  '(0' || sibling_pos || ')') AS path
    FROM entity
    WHERE parent IS NULL
    UNION ALL (
    SELECT lvl + 1 AS lvl, e.id, entity_cte.path + length('/' || e.name || '(' || cast(e.sibling_pos AS VARCHAR2(2)) || ')') AS path
    FROM entity_cte, entity e
    WHERE entity_cte.id = e.parent
    SELECT lvl, id, path
    FROM entity_cte e
    ORDER BY path DESC
    The result of the query gives me a maximum length of 319 characters.
    To be sure, I also checked the maximum level depth (indicated by the column named lvl in the common table expression), meaning the maximum number of elements in my path (the concatenated string). The result is 18. As I use VARCHAR2(100) for the name column and add 5 charcaters in each level, the maximum number of characters expected for 18 levels would be 1890.
    So, now I wonder is the ORA-01489 maybe raised for another reason? Or is there something else I am missing?
    Any help would be appreciated. Further suggestions to track down the error are more than welcome. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the hint, BluShadow.
    Still, I don't reach that limit of 1000 characters with my actual data (yet). I understand that if my data changes, I might run into that error with the given query. But I don't understand why this error is raised with the given data I have. The longest string in the column "name" is 32 characters long up to now. When I'm adding 5 characters on each level and I only have max 18 levels that should only result in max 2664 bytes.
    @odie_63
    The database characterset is: AL32UTF8. If I googled correctly, than it just confirms what BluShadow said, that one character is represented by max 4 byte.
    Regarding the sample data, the XML document that I am inserting and which causes the error comprises 1058 nodes. That means I have 1058 entries in my entity table. I think it would be no sense posting all of it here, but is there a way that I can attach a text file containing an insert script to this post?
    Some sample data from the entity table orderd by the length of the string in the name column are shown below.
