Get_file_list to list content of UNIX directory

Hi all
I am trying to list the files in a UNIX directory using the get_file_list action. Not getting anything back, but action is not reporting error.
In the folder configuration box i have used all combinations of \ and / but none do anything. I can list files on our Mii server using
server\share but this is a windows machine.
I think i have a couple of options
1. get FTP set up on UNIX server and use the FTP_get_file_list action and move files to Mii server for processing.
2. get something like SAMBA set up on UNIX to allow windows style file sharing.
Any other ideas out there?

Hi Les,
Set the "Get_File_List_0" with the following parameters:
Folder: "web://PROJECT"
Mask: "*" for list all files
http://wbhelp.sap.com/manufacturing/xmii_120/en/44/7108DF9EA03ABEE10000000A155369/content.htm (for more details)
Or use a XMLQuery
server://XMII/Catalog?Mode=ListFolders&Folder=[Param.1]&Content-type=text/xml
[Param.1] = PROJECT
Hope this help.

List contents of a directory of the J2EE engine

Hello,
I have a requirement to list the contents of a directory of the J2EE engine of the portal. For example let's assume that there are five files in directory /user/sap/<SID>/JC02/j2ee/cluster/server0/some_directory_name. I want to be able to list the names of the five files that are stored in this directory. I have written some java code that will list the entries in a given directory and that is not the problem. The problem is that when I run this on the portal j2ee I get the message back: "You are not authorized to view the content of the requested directory. Details: Directory listing is not allowed on this server".
I know I could store these files in KM and it would be very simple to do this but due to security concerns I am told by the project management here that KM is not an option for this application.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bert

Hi,
Are you testing this application which has super admin rigths?
You can integrate this file system in KM and write a simple java webdynpro code with KM apis which would display the file name. I dont think there could be security problem with this option.

In the first case I am getting an Exception called 'Access Error'

Information Broadcast Email File - Where is the file in Unix directory?

Hi,
I am using Information Broadcasting to email the BI report. We use Unix as the application server.
In transaction SOSV, I can get detailed information on the file (attachment) and the send status. There is a requirement to encrypt the file in Unix server. Does anyone know where the file resides in Unix when the report is generated from Information Broadcasting? What's the Unix directory?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

How to show direcotry content in Unix

Hey
Greeting,have a simple question for Java Gurus,I am using Tomcat and servlets for my projects running on NT platform connecting to Oracle/Sybase servers on Unix boxes my problem is I want to show directory contents on unix box.. show directory name , filesize, date etc on browser to select file and load into database.
Please help me with code and ideas, partly or fully.
Thanks in advance guys.

If your servlet container is running on NT, the only way to show something on the remote unix is to telneting that unix box. You can look on the telnet task of Ant tool for examples. http://jakarta.apache.org/

CF scripts not consistently listing contents of folder

Hello.
I upload multiple types of files to the server. Sometimes
they are folders, word docs, ppts, pdfs or xls files. There is a
script that runs that is supposed to list everything that I have
uploaded into a directory. The problem is, it does not work
consistently. Sometimes it will display all files, subdirectories,
files within, sometimes it will say that nothing is there. I am not
sure why it will work with some files/folders, and won't with
others. Some folders work great, some don't. It may be a
permissions problem, I'm not sure...
Here's an example - I have a folder and a word document in
the "root" files directory. When viewing in the browser, it
displays "No Files Found". Then if I move a ppt back a directory -
to the root, all 3 items (word doc, folder and ppt) will then show
in the browser. For some reason the ppt triggers everything to
suddenly show. This "magical" ppt does not work for every directory
though. Some items just won't show no matter what.
Here's a sample script that lists the contents of the
directory:

Thanks for your help.

You are not able to do this with CF directly. It would be a function of the web server.
You could move all documents other than .cfm into a folder outside of the web root, then use tags such as cfcontent to deliver those files programatically (as often happens when you download software off of a website now days). However I suspect this isn't what you are looking for. Just in case here is a quick example of how you may do the force download of document from outside root: http://www.aliaspooryorik.com/blog/index.cfm/e/posts.details/post/force-file-download-27

TDMS List Contents returns groups for previously opened file

I get a directory listing of TDMS files, then loop through file by file, using TDMS List Contents to retreive the groups found in the particulare file. I open each file, list its contents, and close it before opening and listing the next file.
If a file has no groups, TDMS List Contents returns the group list from the previous file.
How can I prevent this behavior?

Unfortunately, the original VIs were developed on a Classified system, so I can't include them here. However, I've created similar VIs that demonstrate the equivalent problem.
Run the 'create files' VI to generate appropriate TDMS files, and the 'list contents' VI to demonstrate the issue.
Note that these VI's were created in LabVIEW 9 SP1 (Version 9.0.1 32-bit).
Thanks for taking a look it this!!

How to check whether a file is present in the UNIX directory of app. server

        I am creating files in the UNIX directory in the application server using :
                   CONCATENATE '/sapmnt/RD1/interfaces/client670/'
                   p_fname '.CSV' INTO w_filename.

          ENDLOOP.
         CLOSE DATASET w_filename.
I am unable to check whether a file with the same name exists or not. How to check the duplicate state of the file.

You can use the following fm

Search for documents using External Data on list content type

hi,
say we have clients in an external database, we create the external content type for use in sharepoint 2013
we create two content types, Quote and Order for use in a library
we create a document library that uses the above content types
we then add a column for the external data ( in this case Client Name- but also include ID) , we have the option to copy to content type selected. so now library shows 'Client' and 'Client:ID'
I believe that column gets added to list content types based on the 2 document content types.
so we have list items , which have a document , a content type and a piece of data from the external LOB system.
now that is fine, works great, however, how do you configure the content search web part to return documents based on the piece of external data - ie client:ID ? or Client Name ?
I can map the client:ID to one of the Int00 managed properties and crawl etc - but do not see a way to use that to return documents
any help would be appreciated :)
thanks
MrP

Create a scopr with that in managed properies and then u can get results from external sources

Deploying a Reusable Workflow to a List Content Type using PowerShell

We have a situation where deployment of a reusable workflow for a site content type cannot be completed through the web interface due to the number of libraries where the content type is in use (time-out on deploy and update).
It was hoped that this could be accomplished with PowerShell but the method of deploying to a list content type appears to be different than it is to a list (all content types).
The below snippet works fine for a list / all content types:
function AddWorkflowToLibraries ($SiteCollection, $ctName, $WfName, $WfAssociationName)
$site = Get-SPSite $SiteCollection
[Guid]$wfTemplateId = New-Object Guid
#Step through each web in site collection
$site | Get-SPWeb -limit all | ForEach-Object {
$web = $_
$_.Lists | ForEach-Object{
if($_.AllowContentTypes -eq $true)
if($_.ContentTypes.Item("$ctName") -ne $null)
write-host "Enabling workflow on" $_.Title "in" $_.ParentWebUrl
$ct = $_.ContentTypes[$ctName]
$culture = New-Object System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")
$template = $site.RootWeb.WorkflowTemplates.GetTemplateByName($WfName, $culture)
if($template -ne $null)
$tasklist = "Tasks"
$historylist = "Workflow History"
if(!$web.Lists[$historylist])

else

$association.AllowManual = $true
$_.ContentTypes[$ctname].AddWorkflowAssociation($association)
$_.ContentTypes[$ctname].Update()
But unlike the list version, the association doesn't appear to be saved and no error is generated.
Is anyone aware of what may cause this or have an example in C# that may explain something my script is missing?

Hi Garry,
After you associate the workflow to the content type, you should update the update the content type using
$ct.UpdateWorkflowAssociationsOnChildren($true,$true,$true,$false)
method.
Here is the completed script:
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint")
$site=Get-SPSite "http://serverName"
$web=$site.OpenWeb()
$list=$web.Lists["ListC"]
$taskList=$web.Lists["Tasks"]
$historyList=$web.Lists["Workflow History"]
$ct=$list.ContentTypes["Link"]
$culture=New-Object System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")
$wfTemplate=$web.WorkflowTemplates.GetTemplateByName("Three-State",$culture)
$associationWF=[Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowAssociation]::CreateListContentTypeAssociation($wfTemplate, "myThreeStateWF",$taskList,$historyList)
$ct.WorkflowAssociations.Add($associationWF)
$ct.UpdateWorkflowAssociationsOnChildren($true,$true,$true,$false)
Here is a demo about how to update it using C#
