File time stamp issue

First, I'm not sure where this post would go.
We have several Mac users and they are noticing a problem with file time stamps on our NetWare servers. They are an hour ahead. When looked at from the server's console or from a Windows box, the file time stamp is correct. This is causing some problems with our production software.

We've seen this to and it seems AFPTCP.NLM doesn't notice the DST
change. The only fix I'm aware of it to unload and then reload
AFPTCP.NLM (or restart the server, which whilst brutal can sometimes be
cleaner).

File Time Stamp

hi,
I have to compare the two file time stamp , one file is on my local machine and the other file is on my web server.
I am using :-
long t= urlC.getLastModified(); // to get the last modified time for a file on my web server.
and for my local file:-
long ut= f.lastModified(); // to get the time for my local file.
I need to compare this two time to know that if i have new file or not. If i have a old file I copy and paste the new file on my machine. The problem is after copy and paste both time should be same since the modified time is same for both file, but i think when i use the f.lastModified() on my local file its giving me the last accessed time rather then modified time and this way even though the file are same after i paste the latest one the time stamp results are different.
Any ideas on this ...........
The goal is to compare a time stamp of one local file with a file on my web server. if my local file is old then user needs to get this new file and replace the old file on his system.
Problem: After replacement, eventhough file is same its timestamp result are different. The modified time is same in the file property, but for some reason a call to f.lastModified()is getting the accessed time which is different since its takes the time when we paste the new file.

Can access a files time stamp for calculations?

I'm using Diadem 10.2. We have an issue with our data, where the first cycle is corrupt iff the time stamp between the current file and previous file is less than 30 minutes. This indicates a manual intervention, and it results in skewed results.
I want to discard the first cycle when the File time stamps are less than 30 minutes apart...but I can't find a way do it.
We use runtime in the file as a time channel, begins at zero each file, so i can't use any channel values to do this?
Thanks in advance for the help. Completing this task will end my assignment with this team, and I'll be moving to a new position at the end of the week. Not sure if Diadem is in my future or not, but I highly doubt it.
Thanks in advance...

Hi Jeff,
What type of data files are these? If it's a custom file format, did you write the DataPlugin that reads the file into DIAdem? Is the aquired date/time stored inside the data file somewhere? For a TDM or TDMS file, this would typically be in the "File.DateTime" property, which shows up in the DataFinder as "File.Storage datetime" and in the Data Portal as "File.Storage date/time".
The File created and modifed dates you get from Windows tend to change unexpectedly, so it would not be ideal to use those for a mission-critical process.
I'm assuming that you're loading all the various data files into DIAdem, then concatenating them into contiguous channels that contain all the data from all the files. You will then need to use e "Calculate Differences" ANALYSIS function to create a new channel that has the delta date/time values for each row. Once this is the case, you can use the Channel Calculator to find rows where the delta date/time value is invalid and set these rows equal to NoValues.

Time stamp issue in odi

Hi,
In my interface I am using txt.file as source and target is oracle. Here I am facing problem with time stamp and below are the details provided.
Details: We are getting a flat file from the source in which we are getting one of the columns as time stamp (2013032710101010) and we need to populate it in a stage table column OPTOUT_DATE which is of type DATE.
We are facing issue in loading this TIMESTAMP data into DATE data type.
Km for this is,
Lkm file to sql,
Ikm sql incremental update,
ckm sql.
Can you please suggest us how to handle this.
Thx,
Sahadeva,
9986928587.

Ok thank you..
I have one more doubt this moment.
What it is means, In the Interface level of ODI we have staging are different from target. Here we have SUNOPSIS_MEMORY_ENGINE. Can you please tell what is the use of this in ODI.
1.     How this works internally?
2.     Can we use it as our target/Source as well?
4.     Is it possible to retain data in the memory for later use?
So if you explain me more brief about these three questions that would be very much better and also helpful for me. Because I am going to develop
one POC doc(Proof Of Concept) on this.
Thx,
Sahadeva.

LG Octane Camera Date/Time Stamp Issues

The pics I take with my LG Octane are designated a number associated with the date/time the pic was taken (ex 0401121345, would be April 1, 2012 at 145pm). When I transfer the pics from my phones memory card to my computer and open the pics, I can see the pics info (date/time) and everything seems correct.
The problem comes in when I load my pics onto a website that verifies the pics date/time thru the digital encoding on the pics file. (Digital Pics are encoded with date/time stamps that can be recognized with computer software). This website rejects my submitted pics from my LG Octane because this encoding is either not there or not set correctly. I had no issue previously when using my Samsung env last year. Please Help!

I take it you are noticing that the photo shows in your gallery with the correct time for the name. But, when you look at the photos on your computer it is showing a time so many hours off (ie. phone shows 12:00 and computer shows 4:00). What it is actually doing is time stamping it for GMT for some reason. This has been a problem for as long as I know. I have not found an answer and have come to believe there is not a way of changing the time/date stamp on the phone. I have not even found an app for it.
Sorry I don't have an answer. But, maybe some one else will.

LVM file time stamps - time stamps are not uniform

My LVM files do not have evenly separated time stamps. Is this by design? I want to record data from multiple channels at say 100S/s and see this in my LVM file. Ideally each of the 100 data points would be separated by 0.01s. This is not what I get.
I have tried changing the samples per second and the samples per channel inputs on my timing and read VIs but I don't get even spacing. I have figured out that the DAQmx Read VI always cuts the number of samples in the file in half. So sampling at 100S/s gives me 50 data points per second in my LVM file. Given that it cuts the points in half, I would like the spacing to be .00, .02, .04 etc., but I get this: .00, .01, .02, .03, .08, .09, .10, .11, .16, .17, .18, .19...
Is this normal or am I missing something?
HP

Unfortunately, I am not a DAQ user (the last time I really used DAQ was 7 years ago, before DAQmx was created). So, I have never seen your DAQ read issue.
LVM, on the other hand, I am intimately familiar with. Using the write to spreadsheet will almost always be faster than the LVM write. Under the hood, LVM write uses write to spreadsheet, but also handles a lot of other bookkeeping (you can look yourself by converting an LVM Express VI to a normal VI and diving into it). Your biggest issue will be saving the timestamps correctly. If you are using the waveform datatype from the DAQ read, the timestamp is included, so getting it right is not an issue. Formatting it in a text format for save is.
Precisely what are you trying to do? From you earlier post, it appeared you were taking one set of several channels of data every 10ms and writing to disk. Depending on how you use the LVM write, you may be attempting to open the file and close it at every write. This would be very slow and could account for your jitter. Saving at every data point is also very inefficient. You can stream at disk rate limited speeds (~10 - 60 MBytes/sec, depending on your hardware) if you optimize your buffer and disk write sizes. Optimum disk write size is about 65,000 bytes for Windows XP. Your data is probably far less than that.
Please post more details and code and I will try to help you more.

How to include seconds and millisecond in the CSV file time stamp generated by the SpreadSheet Object?

I'm Using Lookout 6.02, in a XP Pro Windows Machine, Service Pack 3.
I have an application that collects data at the rate of 20 samples per second. It works just fine, the CSV File contains all the samples without missing a single one.
The problem is that the time stamp in the data file only shows hours and minutes. With 20 sample per second, there are 1200 samples per minute. It is hard to figure out in which second or sample number, occurred some events collected. These files are open with Excel and analyzed with Excel. There is no easy way to implement a search or a guidance for knowing the sample number or the exact time in Excel. My problem is to add the seconds and if possible the milliseconds to the time stamp done by the spreadsheet object.
Any suggestion?
Other ways to do the same that includes the time stamp all the way down to milliseconds?

Create another column with the Now() function, then set the calumn format to hh:mm:ss.s
expression would be now(trigger) for the date and time or now(trigger)-today(trigger) for just time
The trigger will cause the expression to stay updated, perhaps using the same trigger for logging the spreadsheet.
Good luck
Mike

HCM Process & Forms: Date & Time Stamp issue in Prev Comments Box

Hi
We implemented HCM Process and Forms and we are in EHP4. We need user name, date and time stamp in each step for audit purpose.
Form Process Example:
Step1: Manager -> Initiates a Form for employee pay/position changes (REQUEST)
Step2: 1-Up Manager -> Approves a Form for employee pay/position changes (APPROVE)
Step3: HR Admin -> Process a Form for employee pay/position changes (PROCESS)
Process Overview: HR Admin can open a form once all steps are completed and they want to see all 3 steps date & stamp here.
New Comments -> To enter user comments in each step. Used data type HRASR_CURRENT_NOTE
Previous Comments-> To display prev. step / user's comments including user name, date & time. Used data type HRASR_PREVIOUS_NOTES.
I tried all different property settings in the form. May be I am still missing some property settings here.
Issue: If user enters any comments in "New Comments" box then only date & time stamp is coming along with their comments in "Previous Comments" otherwise not showing anything, just blank in the Prev. Comments. I added some code in form script in case no data in "New Comments" then default a value ":" . It is working fine for first step but not working the same for other 2 steps.
Trying in different way:
Creating 3 text fields in a form just for display purpose and modifying each field (data set) with some text (combination of user name, system date and time) at each stage/step in a BADI.
Method: IF_HRASR00GEN_SERVICE~DO_OPERATIONS
Here it is updating correctly for first step/stage (REQUEST) and other 2 fields are not updating accordingly. I did debug for each step and updating the data set correctly but finally not dispalying the valuse in a form except first field.
Can someone please share your ideas or inputs.
Appreciate your time & help!
Thanks
Hari

Hi Sahir
Thank you for your reply.
As I explained in my post, user details with date & stamp are coming when user enters some comments otherwise it is blank., All users may not enter comments because it is not a "required".
HR is needed this for audit purpose, just at end of the process they need to see all user names, date & stamp in the form. Forget about comment boxes, Can't we make just simple text fields with user details for each step (all 3 stages)?
FYI:
Issue: If user enters any comments in "New Comments" box then only date & time stamp is coming along with their comments in "Previous Comments" otherwise not showing anything, just blank in the Prev. Comments. I added some code in form script in case no data in "New Comments" then default a value ":" . It is working fine for first step but not working the same for other 2 steps.
Appreciate your inputs !
Thanks

Data file time stamp on Logical Standby

Dear All,
My Logical Standby Database that is Oracle 10gR2 on Wondows 2003 Server is fully synced with the production database.
If i query number of records on Logical Standby they are the same as on production.
And when i query applied_time from dba_logstby_progress view, there is hardly a difference of second since I have configured real time apply.
BUT the date and time stamp of my data files and index files on Logical Standby is more than 12 days old.
I am confused, why this its like this. Is there any workout to fix that? Is it normal? or what?
Kindly help.
Regards, Imran

Synchronize file time stamp problems

I upload files from Dreamweaver (CS3) to the server. The time
stamp on the local files will say 3:37 p.m., but the time stamp on
the remote server will say 7:44 p.m.
Also, when I select synchronize, it will tell me that some of
the files on the server are newer than locally, even though I know
they aren't. But it does not give me this message consistently, and
it seems untroubled by the three hour difference referenced above.
Any ideas? A few other people at another location make
changes to this site, so it is critical to know when something
really has changed.
I am new to Dreamweaver, coming over from GoLive, so maybe I
am missing something obvious in settings somewhere? Didn't have
this trouble in GoLive.

Thanks for replying. I did think of server location. However,
I am on the East Coast, so the time difference would put the server
in the middle of the Atlantic. Also, I have been told the server is
in Denver, although I am not sure if that is true.
Also, I later logged on to the server through their control
panel, completely outside of Dreamweaver, and the date and time
stamps of the files I looked at bore absolutely no relation to
reality. Perhaps the server is a mess somehow?
Anyone else have these problems and can point me to any
reading or help files? Thanks.

ITunes "Last Played" Time Stamp issues

I have a late 2011 Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2 & iTunes 11.0 (163).
Ever since I did the last update to iTunes, the "Last Played" time stamp has not worked.
In the past, whenever a track finished playing, iTunes would place the time & date in the "Last Played" column. This no longer works.
I just came back from the local Apple Store, & one of the workers there suggested setting the iTunes Preferences supply the time stamp.
When I got home, I went through the preferences, but could not find anything for the "Last Played" time stamp.
Please help.

Go into iTunes Preferences and turn off crossfade. Don't ask why it works; do ask apple to fix this bug!

Date Time Stamping issue

When I use select xyz_Date from abc table in coldfusion
cfquery tag, the out put comes as follows:
CF5 - '05-MON-2007'
CF8 - '2008-01-27 00:00:00.0'
Note: The xyz_Date is stored without time stamp in the
database.
both running on 10.2.0.3 Oracle version. This is creating
problem when inserting dates when we only use xyz_date as a value
to be inserted. It worked fine on CF5 but not on CF8 due to format
change. Is there a way to set it to behave like CF5. It appears
that the later is using JDBC driver.

I assume that your oracle field is a date field and not
varchar. Also, your xyz_date is a date object. The most important
thing to remember is that the format does not matter.
This will work - #xyz_date# (no quotes)
cfqueryparam will also work and has some performance
advantages.

Date/time stamp issue when transferring vids/pics to computer. Help please.

Hi, i am having an issue when transferring my vids/pics from my Z2 to my PC.
On all my previous phones when transferring media to my PC it would be copied and labelled with a date stamp followed by a picture number- an example being 2014-01-13- 0123. This has always made organising and finding my pics/vids in there relavent folders an eay task.
The problem i am now faced with is when i transfer pics/vids from my Z2. The pictures are stamped with DSC_0001 for example and the videos with MOV_0001. This means when on my PC i have to examine each file individually to find out its date and time of origin.
Even more of an headache is everytime i have transferred files from my Z2 and then take more pics/vids and then try to transfer them to my PC the computer will not allow transfer as the stamp on the file i am transferring from my Z2 eg - DSC_0001 is already present on the PC from a previous transfer. This means i have to rename all the PC files first.
I hope this makes sense and hopefully there is an easy fix.
I am new to Android and overall i am very happy with the operating system, being a massive improvement generally over my previous phones. Fingers crossed this is down to my lack of knowledge and just involves a settings change somewhere.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi.
The case you described is right. But it´s not a bug.
Why don´t you organise your pics/vids on your desktop with picasa for example. There you have many tools, also to rename your files, so that the filename contains the creation date.
Or you use a cloud solution like dropbox, google+ or amazon clouddrive to sync pics/vids from your phone automatically.
But never use the built-in sony playmemories. It´s really slow, pics are down-scaled to 1280x720 and vids are not synced. It´s the worst cloud-service for pics I´ve seen.

Windows File Time stamp

Hello!
From my understanding there is a File class which has several methods e.g to get file name. The problem i am having is I am trying to implement a simple program which looks at the time file stamp and output the creation, access and modified times of a file; so far I have been able to retrieve the last modified time of a file but not the access and creation times. How is this done? below there is code to retrieve last modified time:-
===================================================
package timestamp;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args)throws IOException {
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter file or directory name : ");
File filename = new File(in.readLine());
// check to see if its a directory
if (filename.isDirectory()){
// check to see if its a file
if (filename.exists()){
long t = filename.lastModified();
// get a directory name
System.out.println("Directory name : " + filename.getName());
System.out.println("Directory modification date and time : " + new Date(t));
else{
System.out.println("Directory not found!");
System.exit(0);
else{   // check to see if the file name exists
if (filename.exists()){
long t = filename.lastModified();
System.out.println("File name : " + filename.getName());
System.out.println("File modification date and time : " + new Date(t));
else{
System.out.println("File not found!");
System.exit(0);
}

Hi! thanks for the response I have written the code to retrieve the creation, access and modified times using Run exec (). A user enters file or directory name and idealy it should output those times. When i run the program I get IOException error=2..... a lot of articles online suggest the error means that the files is not found but the file I have specify does exist unless the my coding is wrong. Any suggestions:
