Folder creation

Is it in the plans for Vibe Desktop to allow subfolders created on the desktop in a synced folder to be synced to Vibe? Now, the folders have to be created in the Vibe web interface and then the files will be synced. It would be MUCH easier for users who want to sync a large folder structure to Vibe to be able to create those folders on the local PC and have the folder structure synced to Vibe by Vibe Desktop. Also to allow file deletion from the local files. If this is in the plans when is the expected timetable for it?
Thanks,
Dan Pearson

Yes, it's definitely in the plans. I don't know what the time table is, but the next release of Vibe/Vibe Desktop will definitely support creating, renaming, moving and deleting folders and renaming, moving and deleting files.

Automating Folder Creation

Here's what I want to do. I'm trying to automate client folder creation. I have a directory called clients. Every time I create a new folder in the clients folder, I'd like for it to automatically ask me what I'd like to name the folder, then I would like it to create 6 directories inside the created folder titled "legal" "spec files" "correspondence" "modules""graphic design" and "archived materials".
How would I go about that with automator?

A couple of options. The first uses automator and a shell script, but you would run the workflow which asks for a folder name instead of you creating it first, as you requested. The second uses Folder Actions so that when you create a new folder in your clients folder it will ask for a name and create the folders.
Automator Method:
1) From Files and Folders, drag over a "New Folder" action.
2) Enter a default name for the folder in the Name: field (or leave blank)
3) Select your Clients folder in the Where: field
4) Click the "Options" button and tell it to "show this action when the workflow runs"
5) From the Utilities, drag over a "Do shell script" action
6) Select the /bin/bash shell
7) in the Pass input field select "As arguments"
8) Enter this code mkdir -p $1/legal/ $1/spec files/ $1/correspondence/ $1/modules/ $1/graphic design/ $1/archived materials/
Save this workflow and run it when you want to create the new folder. If you have quick keys, launch bar, Quicksilver, or the like, you could set up a shortcut...or, you can use cmd-space to call up spotlight and search for you workflow name and launch it from spotlight.
For the Applescript option:
I had some glitches with it in that it seemed to re-run the script after I changed the name. I couldn't figure out if the name change drove the script to run again. Also, after creating the new folder, you have to wait a few seconds for it to trigger. Kind of annoying, I thought.
First, copy this script to a new Script Editor script (Applescript folder).
property dialog_timeout : 30 -- set the amount of time before dialogs auto-answer.
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
try
tell application "Finder"
set theFolder to item 1 of added_items
set response to display dialog "Please enter a folder name:" default answer "New Client"
if button returned of response is not "Cancel" then
set the name of folder theFolder to (text returned of response)
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"legal"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"spec files"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"correspondence"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"modules"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"graphic design"}
make new folder at folder theFolder with properties {name:"archived materials"}
end if
end tell
on error theErr
display dialog theErr
end try
end adding folder items to
Save it as a script in your user/Library/Scripts/Folder Action Scripts/ folder. Run the Folder Actions Setup script in the Applescript folder and attach this script to your "Clients" folder:
1) Click on the Enable Actions checkbox
2) Click the "+" button in the left pane and find your clients folder
3) Click the "+" button in the right pane and find your script you just saved.

Folder creation in UCM

Hi All,
There is on security group eg:-New Profile,if any new profile check-in ucm automatically the folder structure will create on that perticular profile.

Robocopy not copying the folder creation date

We migrate the data between 2 Windowsfile servers using robocopy and it works finew ith issues. Only issue is it doesnt copy the folder creatiopn date from source to destination server, it does copy the file creation date without any issues. Command
we use is as below.
robocopy.exe %1 %2 /COPYALL /MIR /ZB /R:10 /W:2 /TEE /DCOPY /LOG+:robocopy_%3.log
This command is called using a batch file where we specify the source and destination using the below syntax.
call Robocopy_Module.bat "C:\Backup" "C:\Restore"
Kindly advise if this is normal behaviour , if not what is the correct command used to copy the Folder creation dates.

I was using like this
Go to CMD prompt,
RUN as Administrator
Type
robocopy "source path" "destination Path" / MIR
It will copy including time stamps.
or create seprate folder in a destination place and copy everything into that folder.
It will work.

Custom property not displaying at folder creation or Details screen

Hello everyone
I have created a custom boolean property that I need to have displayed both at folder creation and in the Details screen of a folder after it's created. The property is in the default namespace, and is in the Custom group. I have created a properties file for the label and created the necessary meta data extension. The folder validity pattern is " / " and the Resource Type listed is "normalct" so that it's active for folders only.
Then I went to Property Groups and listed my new property in the Group Items field of the Custom group. The Custom group is a part of "all_groups" so that group is displayed both when a new folder is created in KM and when the Details screen of a folder is displayed.
<i>However,</i> my custom property isn't displaying under the Custom tab when I go to create a new KM folder, nor when I view the Details screen of an existing folder. What configuration am I missing? Do I have to develop a custom property renderer for each new property I need to create? I was hoping I could achieve this result with configuration changes only, but I must be missing something.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Fallon

Hi Fallon,
actualy, if you want this property to be displayed only for folders and not for documents, you don't need to specify the resource type for folders. Setting "/" or "/**" for "Folder Validity Patterns" and "" (empty) for "Document Validity Patterns" should be enough.
If you sill experience problems, you have to check all settings, for example with the settings suggested in this <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/2654">weblog</a>. If you use the "default" Property Group in the property settings, you don't have to enter the <b>Property ID</b> in a special Property Structure Group that in turn is integrated in the all_groups Property Structure Group.
Hope this helps,
Robert

Home Folder Creation w/Active Directory

If this has been asked a million times, just point me to the url for the answer...
I have done the leg work and have the "magic triangle" working - I can login and auth to AD and get my preferences from OD. I want our user's home folders to reside on our Windows server. I have shared out \\server\students on the Windows server and in AD I am pointing their home folder to our Windows server, but I can't get the permissions right. When I point a new user's home folder in AD to our Windows server, it creates the folder \\server\students\jtest.
When the user logs in, none of the subfolders are created. Can someone give me some pointers on how permissions need to be set so the subfolders are created on first login?
This is all pretty new and I'm happy that I got the triangle to work - if I can get this all important piece, I'll be set.
Thx in advance!

Hi
A lot of this depends on how many OUs you have; how deep they go; and how many directories you have nested in each OU or the particular OU the directory for home folder creation is within. The accepted 'recommendation' is not more than 3 deep - generally. Having said that I have made it work with OUs 7-10 deep. Gets trickier after that.
In my experience the non-creation of expected directories is generally down to permissions not being assigned properly - as you've guessed. Essentially users must be given read/write access all the way down the nested directories. I have seen permissions assigned correctly to a parent folder, with a set of different permissions applied to the next folder down and the next one along again with the correct permissions applied. Folder creation fails when permissions are set in this way.
What is interesting is the log-in does not fail though you are greeted with the usual "the home folder exists on an SMB or AFP Server etc" dialog box when getting to the desktop. You sometimes get this at the log-in window as well. Although you can also see the message for other reasons - usually down to poor DNS configuration.
You should be able to log in as the local admin and look at the system.log in Console. You should see an error starting with 'NSurl etc etc. . . ' listed. If you do that's an indication it's a permissions problem.
Beyond this and without being there it's difficult to tell?
Hope this helps, Tony

Using iOS Folder Creation Function on OSX Desktop Dock?

Need New for Read Access except Folder Creation

Hi,
I have some problem which is as follows:
I have created the folder <b>ABC</b> in KM Content -> documents -> ABC and given the Read Rights to the user <b>user1</b>, then created the KM Navigation iView.
Now user1 can see the ABC folder and the documents under it. The problem is that now I want to have New in the context menu and in New except folder creation, all are needed.
How I can achieve it, please help me on this.
Regards,
Deep

Hi,
From previlages perspective If user1 should create folders under ABC, then he need more than just READ rights!!
If you need a context menu New Folder, then you should set <b>new_folder</b>
UICommand to your KM Navigation iView's Layoutset's Collection Renderer. The Collection Renderer property is <b>Collection Command Group </b>
So have a new UI Command group and add the <b>new_folder</b> UICommand to it.

OfflineIMAP: Infinite Folder Creation Detected

Hello Arch Forums!
I'm configuring OfflineIMAP 6.5.6-1 with Gmail.
I've added the gmail portion from the OfflineIMAP wiki page to my .offlineimaprc, and added in my own info.
The wiki page says I also have to add the nametrans rule to my local repository:
you may need a nametrans rule for your local repository too that reverses the effects of this nametrans rule
To do so I just copied the one from my remote repository to my local repository, no changes:
[general]
accounts = [email protected]
maxsyncaccounts = 1
[Account [email protected]]
localrepository = [email protected]
remoterepository = [email protected]
status_backend = sqlite
autorefresh = 5
quick = 10
[Repository [email protected]]
type = Maildir
localfolders = ~/mail/[email protected]
nametrans = lambda foldername: re.sub ('^\[gmail\]', 'bak',
re.sub ('sent_mail', 'sent',
re.sub ('starred', 'flagged',
re.sub (' ', '_', foldername.lower()))))
[Repository [email protected]]
type = Gmail
remoteuser = [email protected]
remotepass = qwerty
nametrans = lambda foldername: re.sub ('^\[gmail\]', 'bak',
re.sub ('sent_mail', 'sent',
re.sub ('starred', 'flagged',
re.sub (' ', '_', foldername.lower()))))
folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername not in '[Gmail]/All Mail'
sslcacertfile = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
keepalive = 60
holdconnectionopen = yes
[mbnames]
enabled = yes
filename = ~/.mutt/mailboxes
header = "mailboxes "
peritem = "+%(accountname)s/%(foldername)s"
sep = " "
footer = "\n"
However, the wiki page says I need one that counteracts the other nametrans rule, and I don't know if this does it.
Now when I start OfflineIMAP I get:
OfflineIMAP 6.5.5
Licensed under the GNU GPL v2+ (v2 or any later version)
Account sync [email protected]:
*** Processing account [email protected]
Establishing connection to imap.gmail.com:993
ERROR: INFINITE FOLDER CREATION DETECTED! Folder '[Gmail].All Mail' (repository '[email protected]') would be created as folder 'bak/all_mail' (repository '[email protected]'). The latter becomes 'bak.all_mail' in return, leading to infinite folder creation cycles.
SOLUTION: 1) Do set your nametrans rules on both repositories so they lead to identical names if applied back and forth. 2) Use folderfilter settings on a repository to prevent some folders from being created on the other side.
*** Finished account '[email protected]' in 0:07
Next refresh in 5.0 minutes
Is there anything esle I should do to the local nametrans rule?

I changed my local repository:
nametrans = lambda foldername: re.sub ('bak', '^\[gmail\]',
re.sub ('sent', 'sent_mail',
re.sub ('flagged', 'starred',
re.sub ('_', ' ', foldername.lower()))))
Still, getting the same error
I also tried using your nametrans rules, which led me to:

yep, weird one. nuking my Mail dir would be a problem i believe for me due to archives (not all imap) and the huge think and not so huge brain.
I'm gonna try some of this.

Linked Images : Automatic Folder Creation for linked images?

Best Rgards
Mac OSX 10.9.3
InDesign CC (9.2.1)
Presently: 120 page Blurb publishing with 190 images
I have created a large number of INDD documents that I piece together from many sources,
such as file folders, internet searches, external drives, emails...kind of grabbing things
from all over the place. usually I publish this as a PDF for local and archival use. Sometimes
using this also for newsletters and other ways to distribute documents as pdf and epub.
I never really paid to much attention to LINKED FILES and where they might
be located, as my intent was PDF and you can publish a very
serviceable Pdf without verifying or correcting MISSING LINKS...
NOW, I am working on a higher end 120 page Photo BOOK to have printed on paper.
I did not organise my image assets into a folder, i should have first. Now as I go to
upload to the publisher I find I have to many missing links to images. So I am going
back through the whole project and organising the assets and re-linking...what a lot of work this is.
I was wondering if InDesign supports automatic creation of assets folder?
As you place images, with their links, the program creates a folder and puts a copy of the file there?
I don't see anything about this subject.
I am wondering why not? It would sure make the work flow speed up. Options for
the format, size, pip etc. Does this exist in InDesign and if not
wtf not?
Sure would appreciate anyone's thoughts on this. It is to late now to save this
relinking 190 images, but I realise I need to be better prepared with my assets in the
future. I work on a number of publications, some spontaneously and others
more carefully planned...some sort of auto process for asset-linked-folders
seems a simple enough coding issue. It is 2014 already.
???....best rgards, Thanks for any input on this issue.

Thanks to everyone for these answers. I guess the real answer is "no", Adobe software engineers see no reason to create a script which
will place linked files into a folder. To bad. A really serious and lazy oversight in my view. The package function is helpful if one has already
organised their assetts.
As great as these programs are, this is an oversight of some frustration. As I said in my comments above, it seems an easy enough routine to program
into the app. Why should a user have to worry about collecting details of resources/links for a document?
Even after all these years?
Best regards, thanks to everyone who contributed some thoughts.

CProjects - cFolder collaboration folder creation

HI Gurus,
I am completely new to cProjects.
My Query:
I need to create a cFolder for the project at the time it is Released.
So, i used the BADi <b>DPR_EVENTS</b> on method <b>ON_DPO_RELEASED</b>.
for cFolder creation i used the FM: <b>CFX_API_COLLABORATION_CREATE</b> it creates a folder in cFolder but not in respective cProjects for the project i created. Is there any other FM or is there any solution so when user release project it creates a cFolder in both cProjects and cFolder ( Design collaboration scenario) which is interconnected with a link.
If need more information then please let me know.

Hey Balus,
Thanks for replying. I have read on net that the Java Security Manager can set various permission in Policy file inside the tomcat/conf directory. Is the exception bcoz of the the SM of GoDaddy might not have granted permission for writing or say creating folder or uploading file at runtime to a particular folder inside my webapplication.
I apologize, I might not have used correct technical terms above as I am a newbie and hope you will understand what i am trying to say.
Awaiting your reply.

Automatic folder creation fails ... trying to use the bulletin board tutor

Hello,
I would like to create a blog using KMC functionality. For this I found an sdn article on how to create an bulletin board an this tutorial has some functionality I need in the blog too.
Unfortunately I have some problems when I want to have an folder created automatically. Here are the steps I am doing:
Creating a folder in the km-content named /documents/Blog
In Content-Management > Repository Filters > Userhome Filter+ I created an filter:
Name: Blog
Priority:
URLs: Postings
Prefix: /documents
Startpath: /Blog
Then I created a folder for the km-navigation iview in the portal content. The path to the initial folder is: /alias/documents/Blog/<user.id>/Postings
But when I call the preview to see the newly created folder ... I get the error message that the object couldn't be found (translated it means something like):
Object not found /alias/documents/Blog/<user.id>/Postings
Has someone an idea what the reason could be? Is it that the automatic creation of folders is only possible in special folders?Did someone faces the same or an similar problem and could help to solve it?
Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend,
Vanessa

Hello,
It worked perfectly fine for me.
Of course only after the restart.

time stamps can be wrong, if your clock had the wrong time when the files were installed. Also some of those files may not have been I have files in my system that have dates from the 90s

Create LOV's for all columns at the time of folder creation

Hi,
I know we can automatically create the LOV's for all the columns of a database table when creating the folder in the EUL. Is this a good practice or should I create LOV's on demand? What is the disadvantage of creating more LOV's than needs to be used other than the disk storage? I also know it is not a good idea to have an LOV on a field that has a lot of values. I am tempted not to create the LOV's in the beginning, but then it becomes a high maintenance issue if I have to come back and create many LOV's later. Thank you for your input.

Yes, it is not a good idea to create LOVs for all the columns. LOVS should be created only for the columns where parameters will be used. More the number of LOVs, slower the response in opening up your Discoverer reports and if you are using Disco Viewer, the page might take a long time to open up and frustrate the users.
Also it is a good practise to have LOVs defined on the lookup tables or where there are distinct values in the table and not from where these values are used in the table.
