Generic file called ~ in root

When I look at my HDD root directory in Finder, I have the usual:
Applications
Library
System
User Guide
Users
But at the top of the list, I have a generic file called:
~
Does anyone know what this file is?

Do a google search for upnp.log and peruse the hits. If you're running Vuze, ask its developer.

    Hi all, 
    In the above script, what ever the dat file i load, the same C100227-6.DAT's is appearing in the graph. I tried doing it for any other file. But getting some errors and cant trace it out.
    Can any one tell me how can i make this script to plot graph for any other file other than C100227-6.DAT mentioned in the script.
    Also please let me know how do i learn loading generic file, generic channel referenceing, All generic things, etc etc. Instead of mentioning a specific file in a script . Any material to learn this available please guide me. 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Rash,
    Sure, just remove this line from the script:
    FilePath = AutoActPath & "C100227-6.DAT"

  • V8.2.1: generic file i/o error while loading VI's

    Hello,
    I had a large LV application open and running fine.  I closed it, and upon re-opening the top-level VI it gives "Generic File I/O Error" on several sub-VI's (belonging to me, not LV).  Opening those sub VI's individually reveals no problem at all, and in any case the whole code base lives in a Subversion repository and I have tried checking out a fresh copy of the whole source code tree and the problem re-appeared.  Before Labview displays the "File I/O error" it will hang for several minutes with no disk or CPU activity.
    I just tried checking out a fresh copy of the source tree on a separate computer.  Now Labview is hanging while loading "<vilib>:\DAQmx\create\channels.llb\DAQmx Create Channel (CI-GPS Timestamp).vi" after having managed to load 920 VI's.  On edit: I spoke too soon.  It is now duplicating the "Generic File I/O Error" on one of my sub VI's.
    If anyone has any clue to this strange behavior please let me know. 
    Thank you,
    -Brian

    What I found was this...
    My code calls a bunch of subVI's in another directory.  Those subVI's in turn had some unwise paths saved in some of them that loaded other subVI's from a network shared drive instead of the local disk directory. 
    The network shared drive had been taken off line since the computer was delivered to a customer last Friday.  When LV tried to load the VI's from the shared drive, it would hang for about 5 minutes, then give the "Generic File I/O Error" with an "Ok" button to continue.  I eventually sat and did this for about 13 VI's, taking most of an hour while waiting for the network reads to timeout. 
    Once my now-broken application loaded I was able to successfully re-direct the missing VI's to the local disk, resolving the problem.
    The "Generic File I/O Error" message could not be less useful in this case and I'm rather irritated by the genericity of the message.  Something like "Network read failed" would have immediately illustrated the problem and kept me from wasting a whole lot of time deciphering  it.

  • Generic file I/O error. Cannot save VI "filename.VI"

    Hi, I have LV 8.2.  I am having problems saving VI's after editing them.  I am getting the message:
    Generic file I/O error.  Cannot save VI "filename.VI"
    I can recreate the problem by creating a blank VI, placing a property node on the block diagram, right clicking on property and choosing, select property and in the window that pops up expanding Application and clicking on Directory path and clicking OK.  I save this VI to disk.  Then I load the file again and delete the property node. Now if I try to save that I get: Generic file I/O error.  Cannot save VI "filename.VI"
    Furthermore with the real VI that I am having problems with.  If, when I get the cannot save message, I do a "Save as" and save a copy as "filename backup" and then quit labview without saving the "filename" vi, when I run LabVIEW again I get:
    The last time you ran LabVIEW, an internal rror or crash occured at save.cpp, line 821.
    I click investigate internal error message now and get told there is a logfile of the error.  The contents of the file on one occasion were, quote:

    Any ideas?

    Hello,
    Sorry you've encountered this problem.  The cpp error is a known issue, which is filed under corrective action request number : 42BI4OO5.  In a nutshell, this means R&D is looking into the problem.  I attempted to reproduce the problem as you described below, but I did not get the "Generic file I/O error" as you did.
    If you have any further insight or detail which perhaps is the key to reproducing this, please repost, and I'll try to reproduce this again!  In the mean time, does it help to copy and paste your code to a new VI, or does that VI suffer the same problem?
    Thank you,
    Best Regards,
    JLS

  • ODBC for Rdb files dissolve at root directory now

    Late Dec99, I noticed a change in behavior of Oracle Rdb driver installation files.
    For a couple years, on a Windows 95 PC, when I run the rdbwin95.exe installation program via Start > Run > and specify the -d qualifier, the installation program would first create a Win95 folder inside the current folder location and then create additional folders inside that new folder. Now, it creates the Win95 folder at the root directory, e.g., c:\ level, instead of inside the temporary installation folder.
    Likewise, when I run an older version, rdb32.exe for example, it also dissolves into multiple files, all at the root level, instead of the temporary folder where I had placed it. Rdb16.exe behaves the same way.
    Processing these 2 files can get ugly because it can exceed the maximum number of objects permitted on the c: drive, making new folder creation impossible until the install files are deleted.
    I wonder if there might be some incompatability between the zip program used to create the install files and my current PC software. Each of the PCs I've tried at my location behave the same way, but some PCs at other locations do not, while some do. I just haven't been able to figure out the common denominator.
    The only reason I call this a problem is that I have some s/w installation instructions that walk users thru example screens and it looks like I may need to cover both possible behaviors in my examples.
    Has anyone else seen this problem? Or, have any explanation for it?
    Thanks

    Risa no.
    What i mean is this. This is a screenshot of my ftp server at my host(ipage.com).
    Now this is a screenshot of my program and you can see that in my program i have only the directories hello stats test but i don't have the files in the root: htaccess.config swp txt 1.txt 2.png....all this files i don't have it on my treeView.
    What i want it to be is that on my program on the treeView i will also display the files like in my ftp server.
    I see in my program only the directories and the files in the directories but i don't see the files on the root directory/node.
    I need it to be like in my ftp server i need to see in my program the htaccess 1.txt 2.png and so on.
    So what i wrote in my main question is that in the var files i see this files of the root directory i just don't know to add and display them in my treeView(my treeView is treeViewMS1).
    I know i checked in my program in the method CreateDirectoryNode i see in the first iteration of the recursive that var files contain this root files i just dont know how to add and display them in my treeView.
    On the next iterations when it does the recursive it's adding the directories hello stats test and the files in this directories but i need it to first add the root files.

  • Upgrade breakage (file called /dev/tty[0-9]*)

    Today I updated a laptop with the usual pacman -Syu. After the upgrade (with no errors visible in pacman.log) i rebooted into a fscked system. Instead of /dev/tty0, /dev/tty1, ... I had a file called /dev/tty[0-9]* , and when the boot process completed I was left without a gui or a console login.
    I have no idea what could have caused this as I updated successfully on several other machines.
    Is there a quick fix for this? I tried reinstalling the base group, reinstalling ALL packages, still no go. If possible I'd like to avoid wiping the root partition and installing/configuring all over again - any ideas?

  • Where does a file called "sun_jch.jar" come from?

    Hi,
    we're using jdk142_05 from Sun with Bea Weblogic on a Sun Fire V240 running Solaris 8.
    Some days ago, as part of a testing, the network interface connecting this server to the database server (Oracle 9) was shut down abruptly while Weblogic was running.
    After restoring the connection to the database, all the applications using that jdk were perfoming very slowly their database queries (even if they were outside Weblogic).
    It took us a long time to determine that a jar file called sun_jch.jar located in the jdk142_05/jre/lib/ext folder was the root cause of the problem.
    It contained a lot of classes related to oracle and their creation date was exactly the date when the connection to the database was cut.
    Does anybody know is this file comes from Weblogic or from the JVM itself? I can not find any information about it over internet.
    Thanks!

    Hello again,
    yesterday I found a tool called "Javac Compiler Helper", available at http://freshmeat.net/projects/jch/.
    I don't know it this tool can anyhow be related to the file I mentioned, as the initials match "sun_jch.tar".
    We're not using this tool, but it's the only thing I've found over Intertet.
    Regards!

  • How can i get also the files in the root directory and how can i for testing add items of IEnumerable FTPListDetail to List string ?

    What i get is only the directories and files that in other nodes. But i have also files on the root directory and i never
    get them. This is a screenshot of my program after i got the content of my ftp. I'm using treeView to display my ftp content:
    You can see two directories from the root but no files on the root it self. And in my ftp server host i have files in the root direcory.
    This is the method i'm using to get the directory listing:
    public IEnumerable<FTPListDetail> GetDirectoryListing(string rootUri)
    var CurrentRemoteDirectory = rootUri;
    var result = new StringBuilder();
    var request = GetWebRequest(WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectoryDetails, CurrentRemoteDirectory);
    using (var response = request.GetResponse())
    using (var reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
    string line = reader.ReadLine();
    while (line != null)
    result.Append(line);
    result.Append("\n");
    line = reader.ReadLine();
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(result.ToString()))
    return new List<FTPListDetail>();
    result.Remove(result.ToString().LastIndexOf("\n"), 1);
    var results = result.ToString().Split('\n');
    string regex =
    @"^" + //# Start of line
    @"(?<dir>[\-ld])" + //# File size
    @"(?<permission>[\-rwx]{9})" + //# Whitespace \n

    @"\s+" + //# Whitespace \n
    @"(?<filename>(.*))" + //# Filename \n
    @"$"; //# End of line
    var myresult = new List<FTPListDetail>();
    foreach (var parsed in results)
    var split = new Regex(regex)
    .Match(parsed);
    var dir = split.Groups["dir"].ToString();
    var permission = split.Groups["permission"].ToString();
    var filecode = split.Groups["filecode"].ToString();
    var owner = split.Groups["owner"].ToString();
    var group = split.Groups["group"].ToString();

    Group = group,
    FullPath = CurrentRemoteDirectory + "/" + filename,
    Name = filename,
    Owner = owner,
    Permission = permission,
    return myresult;
    And then this method to loop over and listing :
    private int total_dirs;
    private int searched_until_now_dirs;
    private int max_percentage;
    private TreeNode directories_real_time;
    private string SummaryText;
    private TreeNode CreateDirectoryNode(string path, string name , int recursive_levl )
    var directoryNode = new TreeNode(name);
    var directoryListing = GetDirectoryListing(path);
    var directories = directoryListing.Where(d => d.IsDirectory);
    var files = directoryListing.Where(d => !d.IsDirectory);
    total_dirs += directories.Count<FTPListDetail>();
    searched_until_now_dirs++;
    int percentage = 0;
    foreach (var dir in directories)
    directoryNode.Nodes.Add(CreateDirectoryNode(dir.FullPath, dir.Name, recursive_levl+1));
    if (recursive_levl == 1)
    TreeNode temp_tn = (TreeNode)directoryNode.Clone();
    this.BeginInvoke(new MethodInvoker( delegate
    UpdateList(temp_tn);
    percentage = (searched_until_now_dirs * 100) / total_dirs;
    if (percentage > max_percentage)
    SummaryText = String.Format("Searched dirs {0} / Total dirs {1}", searched_until_now_dirs, total_dirs);
    max_percentage = percentage;
    backgroundWorker1.ReportProgress(percentage, SummaryText);
    percentage = (searched_until_now_dirs * 100) / total_dirs;
    if (percentage > max_percentage)
    SummaryText = String.Format("Searched dirs {0} / Total dirs {1}", searched_until_now_dirs, total_dirs);
    max_percentage = percentage;
    backgroundWorker1.ReportProgress(percentage, SummaryText);
    foreach (var file in files)
    TreeNode file_tree_node = new TreeNode(file.Name);
    file_tree_node.Tag = "file" ;
    directoryNode.Nodes.Add(file_tree_node);
    numberOfFiles.Add(file.FullPath);
    return directoryNode;
    Then updating the treeView:
    DateTime last_update;
    private void UpdateList(TreeNode tn_rt)
    TimeSpan ts = DateTime.Now - last_update;
    if (ts.TotalMilliseconds > 200)
    last_update = DateTime.Now;
    treeViewMS1.BeginUpdate();
    treeViewMS1.Nodes.Clear();
    treeViewMS1.Nodes.Add(tn_rt);
    ExpandToLevel(treeViewMS1.Nodes, 1);
    treeViewMS1.EndUpdate();
    And inside a backgroundworker do work how i'm using it:
    var root = Convert.ToString(e.Argument);
    var dirNode = CreateDirectoryNode(root, "root", 1);
    e.Result = dirNode;
    And last the FTPListDetail class:
    public class FTPListDetail
    public bool IsDirectory
    get
    return !string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Dir) && Dir.ToLower().Equals("d");
    internal string Dir { get; set; }
    public string Permission { get; set; }
    public string Filecode { get; set; }
    public string Owner { get; set; }
    public string Group { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string FullPath { get; set; }
    Now the main problem is that when i list the files and directories and display them in the treeView it dosen't get/display
    the files in the root directory. Only in the sub nodes.
    I will see the files inside hello and stats but i need also to see the files in the root directory.
    1. How can i get and list/display the files of the root directory ?
    2. For the test i tried to add to a List<string> the items in var files to see if i get the root files at all.
       This is what i tried in the CreateDirectoryNode before it i added:
    private List<string> testfiles = new List<string>();
    Then after var files i did:
    testfiles.Add(files.ToList()
    But this is wrong. I just wanted to see in testfiles what items i'm getting in var files in the end of the process.
    Both var files and directoryListing are IEnumerable<FTPListDetail> type.
    The most important is to make the number 1 i mentioned and then to do number 2.

    Risa no.
    What i mean is this. This is a screenshot of my ftp server at my host(ipage.com).
    Now this is a screenshot of my program and you can see that in my program i have only the directories hello stats test but i don't have the files in the root: htaccess.config swp txt 1.txt 2.png....all this files i don't have it on my treeView.
    What i want it to be is that on my program on the treeView i will also display the files like in my ftp server.
    I see in my program only the directories and the files in the directories but i don't see the files on the root directory/node.
    I need it to be like in my ftp server i need to see in my program the htaccess 1.txt 2.png and so on.
    So what i wrote in my main question is that in the var files i see this files of the root directory i just don't know to add and display them in my treeView(my treeView is treeViewMS1).
    I know i checked in my program in the method CreateDirectoryNode i see in the first iteration of the recursive that var files contain this root files i just dont know how to add and display them in my treeView.
    On the next iterations when it does the recursive it's adding the directories hello stats test and the files in this directories but i need it to first add the root files.

  • My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • Flash Player Installer downloads from the Adobe distribution site as a generic file without an extension and the file won't open.

    Hi, everyone.
    When I download Flash Player Installer from the Adobe distribution site Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe the file downloads to my hard drive as a generic file with no extension, and Windows can't determine which program to use in order to open/play the file. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    Is there something wrong with the downloaded file? Or am I missing required software?
    Thank you for your time,
    -Brandon

    Yes, I've never had a problem before. I've even downloaded the Flash Player Install files from the Adobe distribution site on multiple occasions in the past without issue. The only thing I could think of is that perhaps the ".exe" extension was left off to avoid triggering security measures on a computer or private network that would prevent the download.
    Anyway, it worked after I added the ".exe" extension to the filename, so I have no complaints!

  • How do I get iWeb to publish just the files to my root directory

    Hey all, when I publish my site to my hosting server via iWeb it's just copying the entire folder into my root directory instead of copying the files to the root directory. This is causing my site url to look like this: www.mysite.com/myfolder/ how do I get iWeb to publich the files in the "myfolder" to my server instead of the entire folder?

    I needed to do this while keeping ftp publishing inside iWeb, and so I developed a sneaky solution. I just figured this out, so there may be some extra steps in here. Here goes:
    Find the iWeb application on the computer you are publishing from.
    Control-Click on the application and choose "Show Package Contents".
    In the window that appears, open the folder "Contents".
    Control-Click on the folder "Resources" and choose "Get Info".
    In the window that appears, open the "Sharing and Permissions" drop-down.
    Click the lock in the lower-right corner and enter your password.
    Where it says "Read Only" across from "Everyone", click the arrows and choose "Read and Write".
    Close the "Info" window and open the "Resources" folder.
    Find the "defaultPublishConfiguration.plist" file and change the permissions (repeat steps 4-7 but with "defaultPublishConfiguration.plist" instead of the "Resources" folder).
    Open the "defaultPublishConfiguration.plist" file in TextEdit.
    Find the line "<string>/Web/Sites</string>".
    Change it to "<string>/Web</string>".
    Save and close the text file.
    Restart iWeb.
    Go to your publishing settings and enter the information for your server. Point the "Directory/Path" to the folder above your server's root web folder.
    Set "Site Name" to the name of your server's web folder.
    Make sure that none of the files in your server's web folder have the same name as those iWeb would upload.
    Select File>Publish Entire Site.
    It should now publish your site to "http://www.yourdomain.org/Home.html".
    Hope it works!

  • Set default app for generic files

    I don't know when this started happening, but some OSX update broke my opening generic files. Now when I doubleclick the generic file icon it opens in Microsoft Word, which is unacceptable. So I deleted Word and now the files open in a genealogy application, which has to throw a number of error dialogs before it can be closed.
    How do generic files know to open in the genealogy app? Is this something in Launch Services I can change to set them to open in a decent UNIX editor? This bugs me, because it all worked well until a few months ago.
    If I say:
    defaults read com.apple.LaunchServices 'LSHandlers'
    the resulting text contains:
    LSHandlerContentTag = ged;
    LSHandlerContentTagClass = "public.filename-extension";
    LSHandlerIgnoreCreator = 1;
    LSHandlerRoleAll = "uk.ac.qmw.dcs.seegedcomx";
    seegedcomx is the app that now opens all generic files. Is there a way to set this to a proper application?

    More than likely it's a LaunchServices problem and you should reset its database. See http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/resetlaunchservices.html for details.

  • Why can't DW CS5 see jpgs, new files in website root folder in Bridge CS3?

    Help!  Upgraded to DW CS5.  Web site done in DW CS3, used PS3 and Bridge CS3 for photo prep etc. Root folder is  in Bridge CS3.  I tried to use "Place"  to DW CS5- but Bridge opens DW CS3 instead, even with page open in DW CS5. (Have deactivated DW CS3 in associations.)   New pages,files and additions are "invisible" to DW CS5.  Why?
    Before the upgrade,files in the root folder in Bridge were listed and  immediately available to DW on Local and Remote.   (Mac OS X10.5.8-2.2GHzIntel/mem 2GB 667 MHz)
    I'm new at this stuff and have combed the Help-Knowledge Bases-DW and Bridge and haven't found anything remotely helpful or even similar? .Must be something obvious everyone knows  to do.

    Problem went away this morning!
    I tried this step again (a third time) after starting up my computer:
    Still trying to get my composite in "B" recognized by LR, I first deleted the composite from "B" using explorer, then went into LR and moved the file from "A" (where LR recognized it), into "B". 
    This time it worked, the file moved successfully and appears normally in LR.
    Don't know if the re-boot helped, or I was making some silly mistake that a good night's sleep cured.  If the later, I apologize to all who scratched their heads over this one. 
    Thanks,
    Jerry

  • CreatorContactInfo struct in Generic File Info Panels

    Hi all,
    I developed a custom panel with custom metadata in Adobe Bridge CS4, using the Generic File Info Panels.
    In this panel, I have to include custom metadata and the IPTC Contact metadata.
    No problem with custom metadata, I have a problem with IPTC Contact:
    If I insert value in the IPTC Panel provided by Adobe, I see that metadata is written in this way:
    <Iptc4xmpCore:CreatorContactInfo
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrExtadr="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCity="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrRegion="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrPcode="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCtry="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiTelWork="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiEmailWork="value"
        Iptc4xmpCore:CiUrlWork="value"/>
    If I insert values in my custom metadata I haven't CreatorContactInfo structure:
    <rdf:Description rdf:about=""xmlns:Iptc4xmpCore="http://iptc.org/std/Iptc4xmpCore/1.0/xmlns/"
    Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrExtadr="value" Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCity="value" Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrRegion="value"
    Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrPcode="value" Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCtry="value" Iptc4xmpCore:CiTelWork="value"
    Iptc4xmpCore:CiEmailWork="value" Iptc4xmpCore:CiUrlWork="value"
    xap:MetadataDate="2010-04-20T09:07:47+02:00">
    <tiff:BitsPerSample> <rdf:Seq> <rdf:li>8</rdf:li> <rdf:li>8</rdf:li> <rdf:li>8</rdf:li> </rdf:Seq>
    </tiff:BitsPerSample> </rdf:Description>
    Is there a way to reproduce the orginal (and standard) structure??
    There is my custom properties.xml (only the IPTC rows):
    <xmp_schema prefix="Iptc4xmpCore" namespace="http://iptc.org/std/Iptc4xmpCore/1.0/xmlns/" label="$$$/Custom/IPTC Contact=IPTC Contact" >
         <xmp_property name="CreatorContactInfo:CiAdrExtadr" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Address=Address:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CreatorContactInfo:CiAdrCity" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/City=City:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiAdrRegion" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/State/Province=State/Province:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiAdrPcode" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Postal Code=Postal Code:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiAdrCtry" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Country=Country:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiTelWork" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Phone=Phone:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiEmailWork" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Email=Email:" type="text"/>
         <xmp_property name="CiUrlWork" category="external" label="$$$/Custom/Property/Website=Website:" type="text"/>
         <ui:separator/>
              </xmp_schema>

    Edited reply:
    Try:
    name="CreatorContactInfo/Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrExtadr"
    name="CreatorContactInfo/Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCity"
    name="CreatorContactInfo/Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrRegion"
