Ftp activity property in linux

HI,
I create a process flow and use a ftp activity in it.
My Os is linux .and I want to get some files from a ftp server with win 7 os.
I set my ft activity with this Properties:
Command=/usr/bin/ftp
ParameterList=?"-s:${Task.Input}"?
Script=
open ${Remote.Host}
${Remote.User}
${Remote.Password}
lcd ${Working.RootPath}
cd ${Remote.RootPath}
get test.txt
quit
But I GOT this error:
RPE-02254: For security reasons, activity operator FTP will route the execution through executable proxy {1}.
Anybody knows any solution about it?
Regards,
Sahar

Well, Metalink can't find any pages that match that error number, or the error text.
Nor can Google - the only pages that come back are this page and your post on orafaq with the same message.
Have you posted the error message correctly? If you run the procedure from SQL*Plus as if the workflow engine were running it, what happens?

FTP activity to trigger applescripted email?

Hey, I am looking to make an apple script that will run and email me when there is FTP activity on an OSX comp that will act as the FTP site. Can anyone here help me out with this or tell me if this is even possible with applescript?

Hey thanks for the advice. I found a couple scripts that might do the trick, but I need help putting them together.
This is the first script, it makes an alert when something is added to a folder with this action enabled.
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"
--get the name of the folder
set the folder_name to the name of this_folder
end tell
-- find out how many new items have been placed in the folder
set the item_count to the number of items in the added_items
--create the alert string
set alert_message to ("Folder Actions Alert:" & return & return) as Unicode text
if the item_count is greater than 1 then
set alert_message to alert_message & (the item_count as text) & " new items have "
else
set alert_message to alert_message & "One new item has "
end if
set alert_message to alert_message & "been placed in folder " & «data utxt201C» & the folder_name & «data utxt201D» & "."
set the alert_message to (the alert_message & return & return & "Would you like to view the added items?")
display dialog the alert_message buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 2 with icon 1 giving up after dialog_timeout
set the user_choice to the button returned of the result
if user_choice is "Yes" then
tell application "Finder"
--go to the desktop
activate
--open the folder
open this_folder
--select the items
reveal the added_items
end tell
end if
end try
end adding folder items to
And I have a script that I modified to send and email automatically, I just need to know if I can combine these two scripts and then have it as a folder action on the folder that will handle the FTP traffic. Particularly if I can get it to grab the # of items added part and place it in the body text of the email. Perhaps this is over the head of forum help but I ask anyway.

Trying to understand Activation property from Taskflows and childCreation

Hi !. I would like to know what would be the interpretation If I build a jspx with a popup and I put a task flow with the activation property set to deferred but with the childcreation property from the popup to inmediate ?. Thanklx

Hi,
"deferred" on a task flow only ensures the task flow is not initialized before it is displayed (in case it is initially added to a a hidden panel). The child activation on a popup determines when the content is fetched. If you set this to immediate then the content is rendered while the popup loads. If you leave child creation to deferred as well, then the popup renders and as soon as it does, the content is fetched with subsequent partial requests.

FTP Activity - mget multiple files with dynamic names

Hello All
Hope all is well.
I was wondering if there was a way to configure FTP activity to transfer multiple files with dynamic names from source location at daily intervals.
For example, my source files are affixed with date values (source_filename_<mmddyyyy>_<hh>.txt):
source_filename_12252009_00.txt
source_filename_12252009_06.txt
source_filename_12252009_12.txt
source_filename_12252009_18.txt
What I would like my process flow to do would be to download just these 4 files once daily based on a dynamic ftp script as follows:
open ${Remote.Host}
${Remote.User}
${Remote.Password}
cd ${Remote.RootPath}
prompt off
mget ????????
quit
In DOS batch script you would have the mget command with a wildcard as:
mget source_filename_%DATE:~0,2%%DATE:~2,2%%DATE:~4,4%*.txt
How does one go about implementing this in OWB? Does it require a user defined substitution varilable of some sort?
FYI, I am using version 10gR2.
Cheers.

Hi ,
If you are able to achieve your objective from a DOS batch script then you can call that script for an User Defined Activity in OWB process flow .
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sutirtha

FTP activity ...

Hello All,
This is actually the first time for me to use the FTP activity and unfortunately I didn't get it to work. I have actually read what is in the user guide about the ftp activity. However, it was not very helpful.
What I wanted to do is to put a file that is being located in the local directory into the remote directory; So basically what I did is the following:
Inside the value of the COMMAND of the FTP activity I inserted the ftp executable [C:\WINDOWS\system32\ftp.exe].
Then in the SCRIPT I typed the following:
open 127.0.0.1
${hos}
${hos}
lcd ${D:\Oracle\A_Trainings\OBE\Case study\export\CSTRIAL}
cd ${C:\Documents and Settings\hhassani\Desktop}
recv Connec_Explorer.mdl
close
quit
The weird thing is that the control center runs the process flow that has the ftp activity perfectly without any errors prompted. So that gave me the mind scratch.

Yes Nawneet. I have actually read this excerpt this is the reason why I am asking this question. I think since I have the warehouse builder installed on both machines with the filezilla ftp server installed I am actually blinded fomr the fact that an Application server must be installed. Since I have the control center running on both machines. Where it is being stated that the control center services must communicate in order to undergo the ftp transfer. So is it that the control center service must first communicate with a proprietary oracle ftp server which is inside the Application for the ftp transfer to take place and not some other ftp server since the service is not registered to this non oracle server. Does that has anything to do with SOA????

Endpoint for FTP based proxy in Linux-urgent

Hi,
I have configured FTP based proxy. Both FTP server and ALSB are running on same machine. I have configured endpoint as ftp://<ip>:21/. FTP directory is /home/alsb
I have also mentioned error,archive and download dirs in /home/Dir/download ,/home/Dir/error,/home/Dir/archive.
Inspite of this the proxy is not polling fo messages from FTP server. The name of the file changes to <filename>.stage but nothing happens after that.
The other alternative config done was to enable remote streaming.In this case,the file polls but it moves to error dir.None of the alerts configured in proxy are executed.
Can anyone tell me where the problem is?
Thanks.

CS-ACS SE FTP "active" mode

Dear,
The CS-ACS SE unit seems to enforce passive-FTP
when sending backup sets or retrieving CSV files.
The FTP server (Unix based) mandatorily uses
IPFilter to protect us from unauthorised accesses,
and the passive-FTP mode is quite awkward. (IPFilter
does not have the intelligence to work gracefuly
with passive-FTP).
Is it possible to change/control the way
CS-ACS-SE works:
a/ Could it be set to use "active" FTP?
b/ If only passive-FTP: can we restrict t
the port range used to a small
predictable range?

I don't remember coming across an option where choosing between active and passive mode FTP is possible. You could consider changing the filter to permit/drop based on IP only and leave the port info out.

Can you use *Active Directory* in *Linux* as a directory server?

This is a simple question that I just couldn't find a straight answer to on Google, Oracle forums, Metalink, etc. ... when I use the Net Configuration Assistant on my Linux server, the only option that exists for Directory Usage Configuration -> Directory Type is Oracle Internet Directory. In Windows, however, OID and Active Directory appear as the available options. I can't find an obvious answer to whether AD will work in Linux as a directory option. Does it? If not, is there an add-on or option that I'm missing? Our company only uses Linux hosts for Oracle purposes, and only has Active Directory for directory usage.
I was also thinking of tweaking ldap.ora and sqlnet.ora to utilize our Active Directory server(s), but I wasn't sure how to manually configure those. Is there a paper out there for more information on such a thing?
My intention is to synchronize our users in Oracle with AD, so there will be no password and maintenance discrepancies. All of our other applications (Windows, websites, GUIs, etc.) authenticate against AD, and I wanted to tie Oracle in to wrap up user maintenance up in a nice, neat package.
Thanks ahead of time.

Any thoughts on this? I'm kind of bumping it back to the top, because I still can't find any definitive evidence regarding this anywhere on the 'net. Am I phrasing something in a hazy manner? Is there something I can clarify?
Thanks.

FTP & TELNET in Enterprise Linux

hi,
can anyone help me am new in linux world,how can i connect ( ftp & telnet) from
my xp machine to Enterprise Linux, i got connection refused
thanks

First, you'd have to see if any ftp and telnet-server packages are installed:
# rpm -qa | grep ftp
and
# rpm -qa | grep telnetIf telnet server is not installed, you'd have to install it, for example:
# up2date --install telnet-serverIf there's no ftp server package installed, this will work:
# up2date --install vsftpd Then you'll want to start the vsftpd service:
# /sbin/service vsftpd startSergio

Ftp activity monitoring on windows and ftp service

hey guys,
i have several problems configuring the ftp service on my xserve - when creating a user, which will connect to ftp, everything seems to be ok, but when trying to connect - it does not make the LIST command. failed to get the list and that's it.
when trying to connect not in a just simple ftp mode, but in sftp (ssh) - it connects with no problem, fast, but seeing all of the directories in my server. well this is the main problemo i get. i want a user to see only his folder with it's contents. yes, i tried "user can see his home directory only". nothing helps. or i do smthng wrong with the creating of users and their dir's?
another thing. did you guys ever heard of a thing like to monitor ftp activities in the xserve on windows? see, we are a printing house. the clients are uploading their files onto the server via ftp, and a person must see all of the activities, so he can operate with the files later on using the workflow system. well another way or solution would be configuring automator do deliver the files into a certain hotfolder, so the workflow can automatically process them. to tell the truth, i never tried automator:) does it do smthng like this? like, it sees when the file is uploaded to the end and delivers it?
i got the xserve not so long ago. well i thing that was the smartest decision of this year. the thing is, all workstations in the house are pc's. don't ask why:) it's because of the software was bought long ago and was for win, so we have to buy everything new if we want to get mac's in the house. aaaand it costs a bit of fortune in the printing business.
so only the server is xserve, all workstations are pc's, so that is the question: how to monitor ftp activities on the xserve on a pc workstation?
guys, please help. this is a great importance to me.

when trying to connect - it does not make the LIST command. failed to get the list and that's it.
This is a classic passive vs. active FTP problem - the #1 problem with FTP and firewalls. You need to toggle the mode in the client.
another thing. did you guys ever heard of a thing like to monitor ftp activities in the xserve on windows
The only thing I can think of is going to be server-side. Either a Folder Action (or maybe Automator workflow) or a process that watches the FTP logs and takes appropriate action. Either way this is something you want to run on the server rather than on a client system.

This is with J2SE 1.4.1 on RedHat 7.3 running a vanilla 2.4.18 kernel. I'm running everything out of shell scripts to keep from getting bitten by typos.
Here's the punchline: The identical code works just fine on RedHat 6.2 (kernel 2.2.14 or so) - same 1.4.1.
Netstat tells me there is something listening on the appropriate ports, and output from strace suggests that there is some traffic back and forth to the server. There is no firewall running - I unloaded ipchains in the interest of paranoia. (There is firewalling running on the working system, go figure...)
Help? I can post more details if that would help resolve the problem.

The key was this:
The identical code works just

The copy included the file log/Logfile.1, written by rmid (or rmiregistry). This contains lots of IP addresses; I suspect it's more than a log. Since the original machine and the clone are separated by a firewall, attempts by the clone to contact the original failed.
Deleting the "log" directory made the problem go away.

WVC80N problems - linux mplayer capture, FTP issues

This camera was very stable for months, not sure what that heck happened about a month ago.
First off, only use this on Linux OS. I use mplayer to capture a still image every minute. Used to be very stable, for weeks on end (the linux way!). About a month ago the cam would just freeze, I could access the cam through the network but could not capture an image (either viewing on network page or via mplayer). The only way would be to reboot the camera and all was fine for a few hours before it would freeze again. I have not been able to fix this problem.
Now I decided to try the motion detection FTP feature. No luck, I cannot get the cam to find my ftp server. I can access this server from my other computers (including my windows box). I opened the port, no dice, nothing. Never seen an image saved via the motion sensor FTP option.
I anyone out there able to use the FTP feature (preferably on linux)??
Thanks so much for any help or feedback on this...
Charles
(www.camasweather.com)

Problem solved. I finally got around to reading the manual and the answer was right there in an appendix. Using linux all you need to do is...
curl -o 00000001.jpg http://192.168.1.115/img/snapshot.cgi?size=3&quality=1
Substitute the ip address of your cam. I save a time dated file and send it to my web server and can run a time lapse of my cam. Been very stable so far.
Hope this helps someone,

Block all incoming traffic and Active FTP

Will setting the firewall to Block all incoming traffic break Active FTP Connections?
The firewall will normally dynamically create exceptions for the Connection using the Application Layer Gateway, but will the profile override these?

Hi TribleTrouble,
Do you have any issue about FTP active mode?
If the clients are part of your domain, push the FTP firewall rules via GPO to your clients allowing FTP inbound sockets
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="File Transfer Program" protocol=TCP profile=domain Program=C:\Windows\System32\ftp.exe dir=in action=allow
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="File Transfer Program" protocol=UDP profile=domain Program=C:\Windows\System32\ftp.exe dir=in action=allow
For Windows 7, the entire networking stack was rewritten and several security measures were taken to further secure Windows.

Iweb with Lion: Umlaute after ftp-upload on linux-Server are not correct - but worked with Leopard!

Hi from Germany. I used iweb 3.04 and OS X 10.6+ and everything worked fine on different websites, including German Umlaute ä, ö, ü, ß.
After upgrading to Lion all Umlaute are not correct spelled (strange letters) after ftp-upload on a linux-server (which is the same as before). Before upload these Umlaute are spelled correctly, but not after upload.
Trials were a) upload htaccess file b) use older iWeb 3.03 c) asking server administrator (answer: "use ae, oe, ue instead"), but nothing worked.
Any ideas or help?
Thank you very much, and excuse my english
Peter

The problem lies in the uploading of the files or the server itself. If the umlautes looked good on the server before then we have to think it's the uploading process. Try using the free FTP client Cyberduck to upload your site folder to your server. Then check to see if the rendering is correct.
What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

Using relative path for in file/ftp adapter

Hi All,
How to have a relative path for file/ ftp adapter's inbound/outbound operation?
Example: Consider $ORA_HOME = /home/oracle --> This environment variable can be different on different machines
i want to drop a file in to $ORA_HOME/folder1/folder2 (Or poll for a file).
<partnerLinkBinding name="FTP">
<property name="wsdlLocation">FTP.wsdl</property>
<property name="out_dir" type="LogicalDirectory">What do i write here???</property>
<property name="retryInterval">60</property>
</partnerLinkBinding>
if i cant configure this in partner link section or in activation agent sction, how else do i achieve this?
i am using 10.1.3.* version.
Thanks in advance.
Roshan.

You can achive it using the deployment scripts if the directory is changing on the basis of the environment
If you want to change at run time than you can use the jca properties to set using the variables at runtime.
