File Save dialog box not showing correct file name while saving file

hi
Currently, after the Submit button is hit, the File Save dialog box is displayed. If the user saves the file and then opens it then the output appears correct however if the user chooses to open the file without saving on the local machine then the correct viewer is not used to display the file. The name of the file is defaulted as qotSCopPrint.jsp and the default file viewer for jsp files is chosen to view the file. The format of the file is obviously not text (it is either pdf or rtf) so the output shows binary characters.

How to get a file save dialog box on button click

Hi All,
I have some text and I want to write this text in to a file.Then I want to save this file to my local system using a file save dialog box so that I can choose the location where I want to save this file.Please tell me how can I do this in WebDynpro.
If I cannot get the File save Dialog Box then how can I give the path while creating the new file so that it is created on my local system as the application is running on server.
Regards
Rahul

The compilation within Studio works with a bit smaller (like 35MBytes) project, thus I think the problem is some sort of memory handling.
The problem comes up while it is trying to compie/load 'external resources': it still works with 512M or even 256M of heap before this operation.
Some weird thing is that I cannot set Xmx >640M, nor launcher.XXMaxPermSize > 1024M (winXP SP2, 2G RAM). While I'm sure that nothing is hacked around the memory allowance of Windows (i.e. how much memory does it allow for particular executables), I think this operation should be tested to work even on 256M heap...
On the other hand, the ANT compilation works well.
Well, almost well.
I have had some errors in my project, which ALBPM6.0 said to be OK, like defining a String array attribute 'not null' and setting no default value; or defining some object to be abstract and instantiating it.
However these errors are not always reported, e.g. during catalog compilation: XY must be explicitly instantiated before being used since it does not have a default initialization... thus made it static (however, it has been used as static all the time).
I had to hack CatalogPublisher a bit so that I can read them on stdout, and correct those syntax errors.
For this possibility, iterate over the non-empty foCheckerListener.getPresentationErr() in CatalogPublisher after checkXO().

Wpg_docload not producing a file save dialog box

Hi Everyone,
I have a BLOB column in a database table and I want to show a link on a web page so when user click on it, it pops up a file download dialog box giving the user option to either open or "save as".
I am using wpg_docload.download file but it seems to be load the blob data into the browser (inline)
Here is the code:
   -- get image size
    intimgsize := dbms_lob.getlength(page_b_contents);
    -- print the header
    owa_util.mime_header('Content-Type:application/vnd.ms-word;charset=utf-8', false);
    htp.p('Content-length: ' || intimgsize);
    htp.p('Content-Disposition:attachment filename="test.doc"');
    owa_util.http_header_close;
    -- download BLOB
    wpg_docload.download_file(page_b_contents);
Any thoughts what might be wrong?
Thanks

How must wpg_docload.download_file hack across the network, and into the client o/s process executable running the browser, and then force that browser process to pop up a dialog box to save contents as a file?
Do you understand the concept behind Mime types? The browser has specific actions (some configurable) for specific Mime types. PL/SQL can specify the Mime type. And provide a well formatted Mime header. It cannot however force the browser to act in a specific way when it receives that Mime stream from PL/SQL.
See Office 2007 File Format MIME Types for HTTP Content Streaming - VSOfficeDeveloper: Known Problems, Bugs, and Fixes - Si… for basic header details.

Download file in struts - File save dialog not showing up

Hi,
The issue i have is - the file save dialog box which should be displayed on file download is not showing up.
I have a DAO being called from the Action form SaveDocumentAction which extends DispatchAction and has a download(mapping, request, response,..) method. Below are relevant portions of my code.
public void showDocument(DocumentTO Doc, HttpServletResponse response){
//get filename etc
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=myFile.txt");
OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
//code for writing from input file to out
I shld be getting a File Save dialog after response.setHeader(), but I am not. Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong. I have printed SOPs and all print fine, even the file writing part.

Put this code into a servlet rather than a JSP.
JSP are for returning text based HTML pages. It adds extra carriage returns into the response that will corrupt the file, and prevent the dialog showing up.
This code is much better off being in a servlet
If you are using a FileInputStream, you should be using a ServletOutputStream rather than the JSP writer: response.getOutputStream()
When dealing with file input in a JSP/Servlet you should use the methods of ServletContext. getRealPath() turns a website relative file into a real location on disk. getResourceAsStream() opens the file for you. getResourceAsStream() is more reliable as it will work even if the web app is deployed in a packed WAR.

Prevent File Save Dialog appearing?

I have been using Excel 2010 to create Word Documents and then use .SaveAs to save the newly created file without any issues
When I moved to Office 2013 the same code now presents a File Save dialog box.
I have researched the issue and can find no way to prevent the Dialog appearing (and worse regardless of the user selection the Excel code crashes)
The following is a simplified version of the troublesome code
Sub TestWordSaveAs2()
Dim InvoiceProFormaFileName As Variant
Dim NewFileName As String
Dim WordApplication As Object
Dim WordDoc As Object
' Prompt for a word document
InvoiceProFormaFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Word Documents, *.docx", Title:="Any Word File", MultiSelect:=False)
Set WordApplication = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set WordDoc = WordApplication.Documents.Open(InvoiceProFormaFileName) ' Open the pro-forma invoice
' Create a new name
NewFileName = Replace(InvoiceProFormaFileName, ".docx", "2.docx")
WordDoc.SaveAs2 Filename:=NewFileName, FileFormat:=16, AddtoRecentFiles:=False ' <======= this line Shows the File Save Dialog and then fails
WordDoc.Close SaveChanges:=0 ' wdDoNotSaveChanges
' Finished with the Word Application so can close
WordApplication.Quit
End Sub
Thank you in advance

Hi,
I have create a doc file and a excel file in my pc, after I run the code you have provided ,and choose the doc file I just created, it runs without any save dialog. And My Office is Pro Plus 2013 .
I have upload my sample to OneDrive, you can download it here:
http://1drv.ms/1DhnMe5
When you run this sample, will this show the save dialog again ?
To narrow down this issue, can you create a new empty word and choose it in the excel, does it will happen again? if it is convenient, can you share the doc file you're using? Have you update your office ?

Windows File Save dialog freezes a virtual folder

We have a shell namespace extension that presents a remote document repository as a virtual folder in the Desktop folder. When the File Save dialog box is opened from within Adobe Reader or Acrobat version 9, our virtual folder appears inactivated. Even though the common dialog box displays the items in the folder, it is not possible to select any of the items, e.g., using a mouse click or key code press.
Note that the same common dialog when running in open mode works fine. Our virtual folder is enabled, and an item can be selected for the Open action. It appears that the problem shows up only when the Save dialog runs from within Adobe Reader 9 or Acrobat 9.
The problem appears to be limited to Windows 7 and Vista. XP does not have the problem.
I would like to know why and how the save dialog gets disabled, and would like to know how to prevent the dialog from disabling the virtual folder.

Hi,
I have followed the example you mentioned to save a picture to the folder shortcut, and the name won't change to the shortcut. Also the picture would be saved into the original folder.
Here is the steps I did:
1. Create a folder named New folder in My documents:
2. Select it and then press ctrl + C and right-click on destop choose paste shortcut(named New folder-Shortcut);
3. Right-click on a picture in one webpage then open the save picture as dialog box;
4. Navigate to the desktop folder shortcut and double-click into it, the file name field won't change;
5. My machine is Windows 7 Enterprise SP1.
Would you please tell some more details on how you saved the picture?
In addition, there might be some other applications triggered this action, we may take a look with process monitor:
The download link here:
Process monitor
And here is a blog talking about how to use it:
Process Monitor - Hands-On Labs and Examples
If possible, please redo the action, then upload the result into onedrive and paste the link here.

Clicking a .pdf link does not open .pdf file, it opens a SAVE DIALOG box

Recently when I click on a .pdf file link I am no longer able to open the file in a adobe reader either within a FIREFOX webpage or open it using the full adobe program. Instead it opens a SAVE dialog box requesting me to save to my harddrive. I am not sure what has happened and am trying to find someone who might know what is going on?

You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu.

Save dialog box for text and pdf files

Hi,
I am using CRM UI framework for developing my components.
Currently i have a hyperlink for a file. On click of the hyperlink i want the Save dialog box to appear with SAVE/OPEN/CANCEL options. For Word/Excel/PPT files, dialog box appears. However for txt/PDF files, dialog box does not appear.
URL looks like the following:
http://uxcia0g.wdf.sap.corp:50026/sap/bc/contentserver/000?get&pVersion=0045&contRep=RPS_DB_02&docId=80215A5C348E1DEE8A9EC8FFDED05E54&compId=chk.pdf&content_disposition=attachment.
Could you please help me to resolve this issue?

First of all, you need an app on the iPad that can read those files that you want to transfer. Adobe Reader and iBooks are two free apps that will read PDF files. Adobe Reader is much more robust than iBooks as it offers so many more features like renaming files, creating folders, annotating, highlights, etc.
Download Adobe Reader in the App Store. Then read this about file sharing with iTunes.
iOS: About File Sharing - Support - Apple
There are other ways to get files to the iPad, like email, DropBox and some other apps that let you mount your iPad like a flash drive.
This should be helpful as well.
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad

MS Word: This file is read-only. To save a copy, click OK, and give the document a new name in the save dialog box.

This is not a question. I believe I've found a new issue and the fix for it.
The situation:
A brand new iMac 27" running Yosemite 10.10.1
MacMini server running 10.8.5 server.
The issue:
Client on iMac trying to work on MS Word documents stored on server was requiring him to save the documents to his desktop and then copy them back to the folder on the server. The exact error message was, "This file is read-only. To save a copy, click OK, and give the document a new name in the save dialog box."
The issue is unique to this computer in an office of 10 client computers and three servers.
Attempted fixes:
Verified that the ".Temporaryitems" folder existed and the permissions were set properly.
Repaired permissions on the client and the network share.
Definitive fix:
By default, Yosemite 10.10.1 uses SMB for connecting file shares. When I overrode the default and switched to AFP protocol, the issue went away.
I hope this helps someone else.
Rob

That was it. What an operating system. It is very helpful to view files you are looking for. But if you have preview on you cannot save files.

'Save Scanned File As' dialog box causing problems

A lot of our users just upgraded to Adobe Std 8 from Adobe Std 7. With Adobe Std 8, the 'Save Scanned File As' dialog box comes up even before the document gets scanned (this was not the case with Adobe Std 7). How do you get rid of the dialog box? This is causing us a lot of problems because our Adobe is integrated with a document management program called DM5. With Adobe Standard 8 our users cannot save directly to DM5.Because the
#Save Scanned File As# dialog box comes up first, now they have to tell Adobe to save it first somewhere other than DM, after the document
gets scanned they save the document again to DM then they go back and delete the document that they saved in the other location. Is there a registry setting or anything that I can set to get rid of the 'Save Scanned File As' box. If you hit CANCEL, the document does not get scanned so users really do not have a choice but to save the document twice. As I said earlier, this was not the case with Adobe Std 7.

Is there a registry setting or anything that I can set to get rid of the 'Save Scanned File As' box.
No.

Save PDF File As dialog box not appearing

I am running Acrobat 8 Pro on Windows Server 2008. I'm having a problem with the Adobe PDF printer. When I attempt to print a document to this printer, the "Save PDF File As" dialog box does not appear. The dialog box does open, but it is either hidden behind the running application or is minimized. I have to click the icon on the taskbar to bring the window to focus. This problem only occurs the first time I attempt to print after logging onto the computer. On subsequent print jobs the dialog box shows up fine.

Is there a registry setting or anything that I can set to get rid of the 'Save Scanned File As' box.
No.

Check if file downloaded successfully , through Open Save dialog box

hi,
In the jsp I have a download link through which user can download a file which is located on the server . I have achieved this by setting the response type in servlet as follows => response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName); .When the jsp page loads the user is shown a Open Save dialog box for downloading the file. The user can download the file or cancel the operation.
But now I need to track if the user has downloaded the file successfully on his m/c , depending on which a flag will be updated in the database . I am not able to track this event . Pls help how I can check if the file has been downloaded successfully and do further processing.

This is fully dependent on the client side. You can never rely on that.
In most cases you could check if any byte of the file is written to the outputstream and/or no IOException is been thrown, but some webbrowsers (such as Firefox) will download the file immediately while the client still need to choose 'save' or 'cancel'. Only when the client chooses 'cancel' the download will be aborted and the file will be deleted. But if the file is small and/or the network is fast, then the file download might be already completed at that time.
Again, you can never rely on what happens at the client side.
