Fuser - identify processes using a file or file structure

How can I see processes using a filesystem?
At work (solaris) we have fuser. I have no clue how to do this in Mac OS X.
lsof is great but not what I want.
Thanks
example:
sidewinder{26}eseale@5:55pm [/tmp] fuser /tmp
/tmp: 9000c 8905c
sidewinder{27}eseale@5:55pm [/tmp] cd
sidewinder{28}eseale@5:56pm [~] fuser /tmp
/tmp:
sidewinder{29}eseale@5:56pm [~]
old G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Hi Eric,
   I agree with Andy; lsof is by far the most flexible tool for doing what you want. You gave an example that involved a specific directory to "watch" and only lsof will do that. However, for the sake of completeness, there is another command called fs_usage. That must be run as root and looks at the entire filesystem. You can't tell it which files to watch but you can tell it which processes to monitor. One hint: use a large terminal window or use the -w switch. In absence of -w, the information output depends on terminal window size.

How to start a BPEL Process using the File Adapter

Hi
I would like to automatically start a BPEL Process when I store a file in a specific directory. Can this be done using the File Adapter?.

Yes, there are samples of how to do this in the BPEL samples directory.

Restore tablespace using DBF file & structure export

Hi,
we've dropped our testing database - USER & TABLESPACE. We don't have any backup (nor control file), just .DBF file and older export (emty tables, same structure).
Is any possibility to recover dropped data?

Which .dbf files do you have and are they from a cold backup? If you have all the .dbf files, you could recreate the control file and recover your data.

Using Adobe Bridge file structure with iPhoto (latest version)

I use Adobe Bridge and have all my pics in named folders in Pictures/PICS/Folder Names. Inside the PICS folder is the iPhoto Library (only a few pics in it). Is there any way I can use the file structure I have set up with Bridge and iPhoto (latest) simultaneously? I really dont want to import (copy) all my pics into IPhot because I am pretty sure I will end up with two versions of each. I havent been able to manage pics manually the way I like to in older versions of iPhoto.

Here's some info to help you setup Photoshop for use with iPhoto:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

IPhoto and finder file structure

Hi everyone,
How can I make iPhoto use the file structure of Finder?
I understand the concept of "rolls" and the download from your camera is a new roll and these end up in your originals folder as well.
So in the course of a vacation I could have been in 5 cities and want to create albums of these. Is there a way to make the album show in finder? I tried to make a folder but you can't drag pictures into a folder. At least I couldn't.
I'm just trying to simplify life a little when I'm not using iPhoto and need a picture. Hope there is a setting to save stuff in folders outside if iPhoto.

RonsMac:
First, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that's in your User/Library/Preferences folder. If that doesn't help the try the following:
NOTE: When you use BatChmod there's no indication of the process working after you enter your admin password except when it's done you get hit up for a donaton. Those settings I suggested can also be applied to your User (home) folder. I've done it several times. But only on your home folder!
Have you run Disk Utility and verified the hard drive? If no do so and see if it indicates that some repairs are necessary. It it does, boot into your system install disk, open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu in the first window after the language select window. Repair the disk and reboot.
If you have another account on the Mac, log into it and see if you can get iPHoto to export OK. If not, then I'd do the following:
1 - reapply the 10.4.10 COMBO updater.
2 - run the Quicktime 7.2 updater
3 - reinstall iPhoto (when you reinstall iPhoto you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder).
If iPhoto exports OK in the other account then there's something in your primary account that is the culprit. One test is to determine if there's another preference file that's affecting iPhoto. Here's how to run the test:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Linking 'internal' files within contained file structure

Hi All, hopefully someone can help out with this query.
I'm using InDesign CS4 and I've created a project file structure where the output is a single, automatically completed indesign document.
Within this file structure are various illustrator documents which have been imported onto various pages of the indesign document. So for example, when the illustrator docs are updated (in illustrator), the changes automatically show in indesign.
I want to use this file structure as a template so I can duplicate it as a new project is received. So say I have the TEMPLATE file structure, I duplicate it to create PROJECT ONE, the Indesign document is still importing the files from TEMPLATE file structure and not the PROJECT ONE file structure.
Is there anything I can do so when I duplicate this file structure to create PROJECT TWO, the indesign doc is linked the the illustrator docs in the PROJECT TWO file structure?
I hpe that makes sense, thanks in advance.

          If you put utils.jar in manifest of connector jar it should work. check manifest
          once again. If it is not then probably it works in following way:
          Change Connector.jar to connector.rar. Add utils.jar to manifest of connector.rar.
          Package these two connector.rar and utils.jar into EAR then deploy.

How can i implement ISO file structure on the JC?

I am a student who come from Taiwan.
My english is not very well and i an very sorry for that.
I will do my best to say what's the question mean and how can you help me .
My JC project need to use ISO file structure on the JC.
But there are no paper use chinese language about implement ISO file structure on the JC in Taiwan.
So i don't know how to implement ISO file structure on the JC.
Can anyone tell me where can i get paper and source code about implement ISO file structure on the JC？
Thanks for you view this question.
Erebus.

Nihao,
There is no documentation about this because ISO FileStructure is not supported in current JC specs. You can explore the JavaPurse project providet with the JC development kit form SUN and find there cyclic file implementation. All other implementations should be then programmed in similar way.
(And do not worry about your english, it is good enough. Better than my chineese ... couldn't even order a cab last year I was in Taipei .... )

Help needed for file processing using FTP

Hi All,
I am new to ODI tool and currently we are implementing one project in ODI. Could you please, any one help me on the following requirement... how to implement it?
Scenario:
i) I need to pick a file from remote host 'outbox' dir using FTP process, and place into local 'temp' dir. (I can do it with odiFTPGet tool)
ii) Change the file as per target business requirement.??? ( this step challenging me)
for ex:
if source file name : <project name>_<source ID>_<transaction name>_<unique id>.txt
target name should be : 1234_<transaction name>_<sysdate in yyyyMMddhhmmss>_<unique id>_2345.txt ( here 1234 and 2345 are hard coded values)
iii) Later move to local 'temp' to local 'outbox' dir. ( I can do it with odiFileMove tool)
iv) After successful process move the file from remote 'outbox' to remote 'archive' dir ??? (again this is challenging me).
For this my questions are:
1) How to get file name into a variable ( In one of the post , it says we need to create data model and data stores, and interface to get the file names into a file. apart from is there any easy way i can implement it in package it self?)
2) How to tokenize a long string ( i.e., need to tokenize the source file to get <unique id> and <transaction name> and map to target file name)
3) How to define implementation for Java in user function?? do we need to use class declarations and import statements?? I need a sample user function in Java.
4) How to move/rename a file in remote server?? ( need to move file from remote 'outbox' server to remote archive' dir)
5) If any step in package fails, How to get the error msg into a variable which i can use for sending mail and raise a ticket in remedy?? ( I will pass that variable to as content to mail and remedy ticket)
6) How to handle list type data (string list) by variables in ODI?? (As we can define single variable not as list.)
I am sorry to ask all my queries I a single post. But I need to solutions for all to implement this in my project.
Thanks in advance. Appreciate early response.
Regards,
Kiran.N

Can any one share your thoughts for my request.
Thanks in advance.

How to Upload a File in Bpel Process using JSP

I am trying to upload file in bpel process using front end as a Jsp.
i create the jsp page and i am able to pass the value from jsp to bpel process.
In bpel process i don't know how to pass or assign the specified file name into file adapter for reading the files.
Please help me...
Saravanan

You don't assign the url of the file to it.
To either get the data from the file into the bpel process you could use the url-parameter together with the ora:readFile function....or you could let your web-application upload the file to some location on the server...and on this location you could use the file-adapter together with the polling, to start your bpel process.

Cannot process a Fixed Field Length file using the File Adapter (Sender)

Hi -
I have checked throughout these posts and blogs but I still have not been able to find a solution to my issue. When using the File Adapter (Sender) I get a Conversion initialization failed with "xml.keyfieldName", no value found. Why would I require a key field when I am using fixed field lenghts? The file is comprised of 2 structures - 1 header and multiple details (see below). There are no key fields in the flat file that I would be able to use. Any suggestions?

Hi,
you can use the module from which u can convert your structure to
H011000390 Customer Americas 20080605164317 000000000000000800000008000000000016000000

D12345678 100501 100501 Supplier 2 0000000000052000002008042100
Please note the extra H,D in the struture added by the module.
You can then use them as your key fieldValues.. The module should be deployed in Visual Admin and then can be used in the Module tab of your adapter CC
While writing the content conversion after that please dont forget about the added new characters
Please note also that i can find that the word supplier kept repeating in all the Dtachkp records
Please use that
Also if you feel that the field is of 13 characters and that would cause a problem dont worry... create a dummy field eg split tht 13 to two fields and use the common one as key field Value and identifier... as i see in ure case its like 500 Supplier , 502 Supplier . u can split the first 4 char and the remaing 9 char are key field value.
try this out

Communication between thread in the same process using file interface.

Hi,
I am developing driver and i need to communicate between two thread.
>can anyone guide me on implementing communication between two thread in the same process using File Interface. First thread will be driver and second will be application.I need to send IOCTL like commands using File interface ie is WriteFile(),ReadFile()
from Host process to driver through file-interface(which run's in driver context).Host process should not be blocked for the duration of the driver to process the command.
>File-interface will run in driver context and it will be responsible to receive command from application and pass it to the driver.
what are the complexity introduced?
>Can anyone also give me the link/reference to get more information on this topic?
>How to replace IOCTL command's for instance baud _rate change command with a file interface for example with IRP.

Here is the detailed query:
Hardware Abstraction Layer will interact with Driver(Both will be running in complete different process) .there is a IOCTL for command and File interface for read and write.
My requirement is:
Both should run in the same process so HAL will run as one thread and driver as another thread in the same process .I don't want HAL to wait for completion of request and also i don't want driver to be blocked .
We are planning to use a File Interface for communication between Hardware abstraction layer and Driver
HAL will send the command or read/write operation to a file interface and driver will get the command or read/write request from the File interface
There is a flexibility to change Hardware Abstraction layer and also the Driver
Is it possible to use IOCTL between two thread under same process? if not what other options do we have.
Can we use File interface to send command (like IOCTL) between two thread?

Script Alert: "Sorry I could not process the following files" (Error Message using Image Processor)

I'm a seasoned Photoshop/Bridge CS5 user who recently upgraded to CS6. In Bridge I just ran my first Image Processor batch, trying to convert a set of RAW .NEF files to .PSD files with a basic editing action I created applied to them. Photoshop CS6 opens the files from Bridge and applies the actions, but then I get the "Script alert" error message "Sorry I could not process the following files" and a list of all of the files in the batch I was trying to run the script on. The files all remain open and are saved on my hard drive in a folder created by the Image Processor script, but do not close unless I manually close them. I never had this problem in CS5 where the image processor would apply the desired actions to the batch of photos one at a time, then save and close. Thoughts on how I can fix this bug?

Hey Jeff--
No specific action steps to make the image safe - no flattening, etc. Had problems narrowing down the specific action step causing the problem. So I ran the Image Processor script in the ExtendScript ToolKit and debugged in. (I'm using the version that shipped with CS4.)
Turns out what was happening is that the app.activeDocument.close() command on line 1490 was never getting called, because the this.SaveFile() above it was throwing an exception. More debugging got me to the problem - SaveFile() tries to restore the history state after making a doc safe for saving as a JPEG. This causes an exception. So I commented out line 1571:
// app.activeDocument.ativeHistoryState = historyState;
The script runs just fine after this. I commented out the close to see what history states got added to the doc, but no new states are recorded, so commenting out the restore line should not cause any problems.
Of course, my solution does not solve the problem and I may need to comment out all the saveFile() lines that does this. Not sure why some actions have this problem and others don't. The actions I am running have about 25 steps. Perhaps PS is not catching up quick enough. I added a $.sleep(2500) after the restore history but that didn't help.
So, not sure where this gets us. I will check about posting an action set with just one of the actions that cause the problem. But I may also have our customer comment out that line of the Image Processor script.
Hope this helps. May post more next week.

I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why the iTunes Scripting Brigde returned failed when it is actually success? It occurred exactly 2 minutes after submit the request to Scripting Brigde. Is this 2 minutes related to the Apple Event time out? if it does, how do I get around this problem? thx

I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account? I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.

How to process files one by one using sender file adapter

Hi,
I have to process file one by one using my file adapter (sender), because while doing the G/R materials get locked, if the same materal exist in other files.
I have maintained QOS as "Exactly Once in Order" & processing Sequence as "by date".
Processing sequence come in which tab? What will be the Queue name?
Thanks,
krishna

It will come under Processing tab
Here you need to select the first parameter QOS as EOIO
Then QUEUE name and processing sequence will be enabled.
NOTE: This will work only for NFS protocol not for FTP.

Please note that record types 8 and 9 have 2 fixed fields.
I have tried playing around with the File Adapter and the ESB but not having much luck. Can someone provide any suggestions on how I can handle this?

James,
Thanks for your prompt response. I have come across your post previously.
Please excuse my in-experience (very new to SOA and Oracle SOA Suite) but i have not understood how your post regarding the manual creation of an XSD will assist with my problem. Could you possibly further elaborate on the overall approach i should be taking?
