File Download not working for anchor tags

Hello,
I've encountered a bug with the 4.1.31 version of Tomcat. Apparently, when
I use an anchor tag for a file, and I click on the link, it does not show the
file download message "Do you want to open or save this file?" with the open
and save options. Instead, it displays the file in the browser. I know you
could normally save this information from the browser to a file, but I need it
to show the download message because it's easier for users to save their
file. I'm using Internet Explorer version 6, SP2. I've also tried setting
the "Confirm open after download" check box for file types to no avail. It
use to work in Tomcat 4.1.18.
Any help would be appreciated.

Can anyone pls. help me ? I tried all options from disbling firewall to uninstalling Bonjour.. But nothing works. Had I known that Apple makes such worst software I would never have bought iPhone !!!! Apple really *****!!!!!!!

File downloads not working in Pepper-Flash beta 11.8.800.115 (chrome)

Pepper-Flash Beta version 11.8.800.115 was auto-installed in latest Chrome update (29.0.1547.57 m). This flash version does not display save/open dialog when clicking on a link that opens a file via flash.net.navigateToURL(request, "_self"). Request is an http get that calls a servlet that responds with a binary stream.

The follow are two separate workarounds that we used. We initially used the first workaround below until figuring out #2.
(1) Use the download function on a flash.net.FileReference object. The flow is not as nice, but works as long as the download occurs as part of a user initiated event, such as a button click. We added a switch so that this workaround was only used if the browser was Chrome, so that IE and Firefox kept the same flow.
(2) Embed a hidden frame in your html and make an ExternalInterface call similar to the following to target the download to it. We also have an exit page prompt, but targeting a hidden frame does not affect it:
ExternalInterface.call("downloadFileToHiddenFrame", url);
Javascript function...
function downloadFileToHiddenFrame(locationRef) {
top.frames["myhiddenframename"].location.href = locationRef;
One note, we always use application/octet-stream as the mime type for downloads to avoid the possibility of the file actually rendering in the hidden frame. After implementing #2 above, file downloads in Chrome now flow exactly the same as before the pepper flash issue surfaced.
Hope this helps.

Zip download not working for IE, but works with mozila and crome browsers

The requirement is: we need to download a zip file, and the zip file may contain more than one csv file.
The application is deployed in Linux server and WebLogic 10.3.2. In internet explorer the zip files downloads as a corrupt file which cannot be unzipped. Although in mozilla firefox or chrome I can download the zip file, can unzip and can see the contained csv file as well. Could you please let me know what is wrong in the above code or what modification is needed to make this code workable in Internet Explorer as well?
I have created a fileDownloadActionListener as below:

Well if it works from one browser it would seem likely that the code you are using to create the file is OK. So I would concentrate on what is different between the browsers, so that will be Mime type management and security.
Your mime type def seems to be OK but it may be the mapping that IE is using that is broken
IE will take the mime type mapping from the registry so it may be worth trying IE from another machine just in case there is something screwy there. Also if you're on Windows 7 make sure that the Zip has not been "blocked" - save it to disk on the client, select the file and choose properties from the context menu - see if it says blocked in the Attributes section.

File sharing not working for any new accounts

I am using the latest version of Mavericks. For every new account I set up (Sharing, Administrative, Standard) trying to set up file sharing on a directory fails. When I set up the account, select a directory (on the boot drive or on an external drive) to share and do a get Info it always shows "Fetching..." on the new account. If I try to set that directory to share from an account in SysPref>Sharing when I click on the directory and try to set the account to share, even though the account shows up in the list of accounts to use, when I select any new account it does NOT show up as selected for sharing. It is as though the new account isn't quite being correctly set by the system. If I launch and look at any new account in WorkGroup manager they appear to be normal but cannot be used in File Sharing. I am really scratching my head on this, since I do everything I should to share a directory and all new accounts are just not working.
Any ideas or suggestions??????????????? HELP HELP!

hi there,
that error message sounds like you placed a shared folder within a parent folder that is not shared. It also can help to boot into Recovery Mode (pressing Command and R simultanously when hearing the startup tune), launch Disk Utility, select the disk containing your OSX installation (usually named Macintosh HD) and choose Verify Disk Permissions. Should any problems be reported select Repair Disk Permissions. Once that is finished, reboot normally.
Though unlikely, it might have happened during all the folder removing and readding that some Permissions are out of sync. So checking these Permissions is merely a precaution
Once you are back in "normal" OSX using your admin account, try this:
Open Terminal from the Utilites folder
enter the following commands one line at a time:
mkdir /Users/Shared/Family
mkdir /Users/Shared/Family/Movies
mkdir /Users/Shared/Family/Mom
chown -R <placeholder> /Users/Shared/Family
chmod -R 755 /Users/Shared/Family
Be sure to replace <placeholder> with your account's short name (no brackets!)
Now open System Preferences and select Sharing
Select File Sharing from the left pane
Click on the little plus and add /Users/Shared/Family to your shares (The subfolders are automatically included)
in the right most pane check the access privileges. They are set, so that you can read and write to those folders, while everyone else can only read. If you want everybody to have read and write privileges, use 777 instead of 755 within the terminal last command.
Now the other computers should be able to see and use the shared folder you just created.
If you create individual user accounts on your machine for every family member you want to access the shared folders, you can choose far more sophisticated levels of access privileges.
Hope this helps,
Chris

FIle download not working in page fragment

Hi All,
I have to download a file . I am using Dynamic tab shell and in one pf my page fragement link to download a file is avaliable...
I did a POC on jspx and its working fine but when i try to use the same code in my jsff (page frament ) its not working any idea that do i have to do anything specific to acheive the same..
Thanks
Shubhangi

Shubhangi/Timo,
was this resolved? I am having the same issue. File download works fine in a jspx page but the same code is not working when file download is used as part of a page fragment.
I have a table column that has the filename as commandlink with a managed bean code as below.
public oracle.binding.BindingContainer getBindings() {
return BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
public void downloadFile(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
// myDocumentLocation specified in web.xml
String DOCUMENTS_LOCATION =
fctx.getExternalContext().getInitParameter("myDocumentLocation");
if (DOCUMENTS_LOCATION == null) {
// DOCUMENTS_LOCATION = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\xxloc\\";
Application app = fctx.getApplication();
ExpressionFactory elFactory = app.getExpressionFactory();
ELContext elContext = fctx.getELContext();
ValueExpression valueExp =
elFactory.createValueExpression(elContext, "#{row.OrderFileName}",
Object.class);
String s1 = (String)valueExp.getValue(elContext);
System.out.println(s1);
String filename = s1 ;
File srcdoc =
new File(DOCUMENTS_LOCATION + filename);
if (srcdoc.exists()) {
FileInputStream fis;
System.out.println("exists");
byte[] b;
HttpServletResponse response =
(HttpServletResponse)fctx.getExternalContext().getResponse();
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=" + filename);
response.setBufferSize(1024);
// response.setContentLength((new Long(srcdoc.length())).intValue());
OutputStream out = null;
try {
out = response.getOutputStream();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
try {
fis = new FileInputStream(srcdoc);
int n;
n = fis.available();
while (n > 0) {
b = new byte[n];
System.out.println("b" +b);
int result = fis.read(b);
out.write(b, 0, b.length);
if (result == -1)
break;
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("in file error");
e.printStackTrace();
try {
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
fctx.responseComplete();
It would be great if someone could guide me with this issue.
Thanks,

File.execute() not working for bat file

Dear all,
The purpose of my function copyToWinClipboard (text) is to get a string directly into the Windows Clipboard. The purpose is to allow the user of my project just to paste into the open-dialog of the application EndNote. I’m not certain whether the FM clipboard (supported by the copy/cut/paste methods for Doc) really fills into the Windows Clipboard also.
In the PhotoShop script forum I found the idea how to do this.
#target framemaker
// note the blank in the path
copyToWinClipboard ("E:\\_DDDprojects\\FM+EN escript\\FM-11-testfiles\\BibFM-collected.rtf");
function copyToWinClipboard (text) {
var theCmd, clipFile = new File(Folder.temp + "\\ClipBoardW.bat");
clipFile.open('w');
// theCmd = "echo \"" + text + "\" | clip"; // this doesn’t help either
theCmd = "echo " + text + " | clip";
clipFile.writeln (theCmd);
clipFile.close ();
clipFile.execute ();
Running this script provides a short flicker (the command prompt), but the clipboard does not contain the expected string. However, when double clicking on the generated I:\!_temp\ClipBoardW.bat the clipboard is filled correctly.
IMHO the execute method does not work correctly for bat files. In another area of my project-script i run an exe file with this method correctly.

Hi Klaus,
sorry for my late response.
execute definitely works witch batch-files
Here's a "batch" - example you can test.
There are two methods to prevent window from closing:
"|more" - kind of pagebreak
"pause"
var oTemp = app.UserSettingsDir + "\\tmp";
    var MyDosCommand = "ipconfig.exe /a|more";
    var MyPath = new Folder (oTemp);
    if (!oTemp.exists)
        var MyPath = new Folder (oTemp);
        var lFehler = MyPath.create();
    oTemp = oTemp + "\\" +"nw.bat";
    var MyFile = new File (oTemp);
         MyFile.open ('w');
           if (MyFile.error > "")
                alert("ERROR");
        MyFile.writeln(MyDosCommand);
        MyFile.writeln("pause");
        MyFile.close();
        MyFile.execute();

Download not working for iTune for Win 7

Dear Friends,
I am quite new to the world of Iphone. I am trying to download a few applications in my Win 7 PC through iTune which is not working as I expect.
Here the sequence of events:
I start iTune and it prompts me to download and Update / Download Only for iPhone. After I select Download only It starts download of iOS 5.0.1 software (which I don't want to download); so after I canceled it prompts me to download iBook - the application I want to download - But after showing the progress bar (Accessing iTune store ) it says that iPhone sync is complete but it never downloads anything.
I wish to know is it possible to download iBook - or any other application through my PC-iTune and then synchronize it with my iPhone?
Best Regards
Sabya

Can anyone pls. help me ? I tried all options from disbling firewall to uninstalling Bonjour.. But nothing works. Had I known that Apple makes such worst software I would never have bought iPhone !!!! Apple really *****!!!!!!!

Serial Number for CS5.5 Production Premium that I received for Mac download not working for Windows

My ProductionPremium CS5.5 serial number for my Mac is not working when I download and install ProductionPremium CS5.5 on my windows machine. Do I need to deinstall on my mac or get another serial number issued?

This is expected. Serial numbers are platform specific and platform swaps only apply to current versions. You need to upgrade to CS6 and make the switch.

Click event not working on anchor tag

I've the following code and it's not working on the Safari browser (latest version, windows or in iPhone User Agent mode). This works fine in any other browser. What am I missing or is there any other alternative to fix this?
What code is supposed to do, is, when you click on the "google" link in the example, it should create a Image request from JS (junk test) which I don't see it happening when I look through network sniffer.
Thank you in advance...

Changing the clickhandler to the version you suggested yields
nothing. No trace. But if I change the condition to:
event.eventPhase == EventPhase.AT_TARGET
I get the click trace again. My conclusion is that for some

File downloads not working most of the time

[I originally included this problem in another post; I should know better. I'm posting it separately here in hopes of getting some feedback about this other issue I'm having.]
When I click on a link on a Web page to download a file (maybe the latest version of Firefox), the Save dialog that appears almost always displays the file name without the extension. For example, I just tried downloading the Firefox installer. Instead of displaying the name as "Firefox Setup 13.0.1.exe", it displayed "Firefox Setup 13.0.1". The file type is listed as "binary file". Every once in a while (maybe one in ten tries), if I quit and relaunch Firefox, immediately return to the download page, and click the file link again, the file name and file type will appear correctly. Almost always, I have to resort to using some other browser to download the file.
I've tried deleting the browser cache; resetting Firefox from the about:support page; installing a new copy by downloading the installer file from the Mozilla site. None of this has helped.
The thing that mystifies me the most is the fact that, maybe 10% of the time, the file download succeeds. This (the file download succeeding) seems to happen only immediately after I launch the browser.
Any ideas?
--Larry

Thanks for the suggestion. I followed the instructions and deleted the MimeTypes.rdf file, then relaunched Firefox. Unfortunately, nothing changed.
I did notice something strange and possibly informative, however: When I tried to download the Firefox installer, the file once again failed to download. The Downloads window that pops up when I download a file gave the full file name, including the ".exe", and displayed "Canceled - mozilla.net". It appears that the file type isn't lost after all, but the download is canceled.
Any idea what could cause this?

Mac to Mac file sharing not working for new folders

My folks got a new iMac today, and I've got a 2007 iMac on the same network. We're both running 10.8.2.
I had a few folders set up to share files. My public folder, Movies, and then a new fold called "Mom" that I set up specifically for them. The settings are identical on all the folders, but they can only access "Movies." If I try to access any other shared folders from their machine, I get the following error:
"The operation cannot be completed because the original item for "[insert folder name]" cannot be found."
I have read the Mac 101: File Sharing document (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1549?viewlocale=en_US) and followed the directions to no avail. I have removed and re-added all the folders, and still, only "Movies" is readable from their iMac (it too was removed and re-added). The settings for all the folders are identical to the settings for "Movies."
Additionally, after a short period any new folder I create and use as a shared folder will no longer allow me to rename it, even after I remove it from the shared folders list. The folders are not locked, and I have full admin privileges.
(Things work fine the other way, though: I can set up shared folders on their new iMac and access them just fine from my 2007 iMac.)

[SOLVED] PCManFM file manager not working for me

Hi, i'm having some troubles with PCManFM. Every time i want to open the file manager it just doesn't do anything, no errors and no feedback if i run it from a console. If i create a folder on my desktop and double click on it, file manager will pop up and i'm able to use it as it were no problems, but still when i close that window it won't open otherwise than clicking on the folder on the desktop. Any ideas?. It's a clean install, followed the wiki for lxde and i've been using linux for 10 years now, tried to figure it out but i couldn't. It's not my first time with arch but i took a break for the last 6 months, thanks in advance.
ibfm 0.1.14-2 (lxde)
pcmanfm 0.9.8-2 (lxde)
cat /etc/rc.conf | grep DAEMONS
# DAEMONS
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus hal !network networkmanager dnsmasqd !netfs crond alsa)
cat .xinitrc | grep exec
exec ck-launch-session startlxde
As i said before, there are no error messages.
Update:
I've just found a lead (l think), if i kill pcmanfm process and rerun it the file manager works fine, the way it should, but desktop won't get managed.

FlashPlayerTrust file is not working for firefox

Hi guys,
there are two methods of putting your swf under the localTrusted.
1. add your location to local trusted by setting in to online setting manager on macromedia site.
2. create a cfg file and put it in flash player trust directory i.e "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust".
Am i right?
now my application works fine in IE by doing so but it irritate me on firefox.
if i add my swf file location in online setting manager on macromedia site then it start working but cfg file doesnt leave any effect.
really i need to achieve this by cfg file not by adding some setting in online setting manager .
any solution, suggestion??
Thanks
