Haviing double quotes show up when executing a command with a variable

I am trying to run a command that requires double quotes to be part of it. For example:
$adddiskname = "Harddisk5"
"$adddiskname(No
Signature)"
only gives the output of
Hardisk5 (No Signature)
 but I need it to look this when it runs:
"Harddisk5 (No Signature)"
Here is the command line I have now:
$adddiskname = "Harddisk5" Start-Process-FilePath'C:\Program
Files\Veritas\Veritas Volume Manager\vxdisk'-ArgumentList"-f","sig","$adddiskname(Not
Signature)"-Wait
Any help would be great.
Thanks,

The entire string needs to be in the Quotes, so when the command is run, it shows the (No Signature) as well.
Example:
"Harddisk5 (No Signature)" is the end result.
Okay:
$addDiskName = 'Harddisk5'
"`"$addDiskName (No Signature)`""

  • SQL2005 cluster error MDB-05053  Errors when executing sql command: p nr="

    Hi all,
    We are migrating from 32 bit to x64 bit machines. SQL 2005 database on windows 2003.
    I am trying to install E 4.7-200 SR1 on the clustered nodes. The installation manuals for 4.7 are very old and there is nothing for SQL2005 installation.
    Now that some how we were able to have SQL up and running in clustered environment (It only took 10 days), After installing CI, I am not able to deploy the database and database creation phase is failing with the following error:
    MDB-05053  Errors when executing sql command: <p nr="0"/>.
    I am heavily relying on our server managment team on clustering and hoping they have done a good job, However I need some guidelines which can help me in verifying what they have done is correct and meets SAP and SQL requirments and issues we are facing is actually install problems not cluster.
    SAP install manuals are not detailed in this regards. Also manuals are out dataed and they only show the sql 2000 clustering pre-requisit for 4.7 installls.
    Can any one with clustering experience please help.
    Calling out NPC, As his sql installation and upgrade manual has helped me with stand alone installs, Hoping he has some thing for clustering as well.

  • Error1006 when executing external command mv ...

    This error concerns one of the several daily batch most critical. It was not detected before because even if there is an error the program won't never fail (we will review for sure this program).
    The error appears at the call of an external command ZRENAME that corresponds to the OS command "mv" to rename a physical file on directory /interface.
    This error seems corresponds to a timeout when the SAP system tries to call the mv command on the OS level ...

  • Double Quotes In LOV Return Value Being Replaced With &qu ot; By APEX 4

    My company recently upgraded our development and test boxes to APEX 4.0.2, which we have been wanting for a while now. We discovered that since the upgrade some of our checkboxes and radio groups no longer work as expected. What I mean by this is that the return values being checked for were not correct, and on several occasions we received PL/SQL errors related to numeric to character conversion issues.
    After debugging some it turns out that we have the following LOV query for one of our Checkboxes:
    select
    statement d,
    stmt_id || '" title="&P20_FORM_STMT. ' || statement || '.' r
    from
    stmts
    The return value for the LOV is setup so that it would return a 508 compliant checkbox. We were told we needed a title for each value of a checkbox or radio group to be 508 compliant. These titles must also be relevant to the selection being made, hence the substitution string being used in the return value.
    What I discovered in all of this is that APEX 3.2 did not convert the double quotes in our return value to &qu ot;, but APEX 4.0.2 does. This causes the value of any given checkbox or radio group to look like the following:
    value="1&qu ot; title=&qu ot;This is the statement that I have made."
    And what we are looking for, and what APEX used to do is this:
    value="1" title="This is the statement that I have made."
    Does anyone know a way to prevent APEX from converting the double quotes to &qu ot;, or is there a way to insert an element attribute for each checkbox or radio group value that contains a substitution string?
    Thanks in advance!

    4.2.1
    Hi,
    I have a classic report, which has a count column that is hyperlinked. using the standard apex column hyperlink option. In that we have the option of passing values. I noticed that when I am passing a value which has "/" in it, it replaces the / with & #x2F;
    I have created a application item which I am populating with the report column.
    Because of which I cannot use that value in the report query.
    Any suggestions?Yes. Don't pass string values in URLs. Especially where it is possible for these strings to contain URI reserved or APEX sensitive characters. This might work for a while but your application can be broken months from now by users including a "&" or ":" in data that gets passed as a URL parameter. Whilst it is possible to escape strings to make them URL- and APEX parameter-safe, it is much better practice to avoid the problem altogether.
    Exposing data in the URL may also introduce security vulnerabilities. Also note that the maximum length of a URL in Microsoft Internet Explorer is about 2KB, which can easily be exceeded by throwing a few string values at it.
    Only use discrete alphanumeric key values as URL parameters. In target pages/regions, use these key values to retrieve the required data using item source attributes and processes.

  • Error with Project Parameters when executing the package with dtexec command

    Hi,
    We have started migrating our SSIS package from 2005 version to SSIS 2012. In SSIS 2005 we were using XML configuration files and executing the packages with dtexec command from the packages folder (without deploying packages to filesystem).
    Now in SSIS 2012, we have seen Project Parameters and created couple of package parameters and used those parameters in the package. when executing this package from solution explorer it was working fine but when i try to execute the same package from command
    line with Dtexec command, it was showing an error message of 'Not able to map Project Prameters to configurations'.
    Could you please give me an idea of how to execute the packages from command line by using dtexex command. basically i would like use project parameters in 2012 similar to configurations?
    Thanks,
    Venu.

    Refer
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-IN/library/hh231187.aspx
    you can pass parameter like this
    /SET \Package.Variables[$Package::ParameterName];<value> /SET \Package.Variables[$Project::ParameterName];<value>

  • Error MDX when executing WBI query with different prompt but same text

    Current version is BO XI 3.1 SP2 FP 2.6
    Connected with SAP BI7
    Identified problem :
    when using same text prompt in different filters, only the first one is correctly answered, the MDX code for following ones are not correctly generated : the engine uses the right filter but applied to the object from the first filter which gives a MDX code error.
    Example :
    In a report :
    - asking a user choice on 'document month' for operational view
    - using the same answer to fill up the 'posting month' in financial view
    Document month (0FISCPER) filter is filter !V000001
    Posting month (FISCPLCD) filter is filter !V000002
    Question text is unique : "Single Year Period ?" and should be sent to both prompts/variable.
    When using the same text prompt, the MDX code generated is :
    SELECT  { [Measures].[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( [0FISCPER].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, [FISCPLCD].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM [CATS_M01A/ZGL_CATS_UTILISATION] SAP VARIABLES [!V000001] INCLUDING [FISCPLCD].[Z12010006]
    Please notice that in this generated code, the filter !V000001 is applied to the FISCPLCD object, while filter !V000001 is related to document month. A MDX error is generated.
    Any clue to solve this issue ?

    Here is the real case :
    Object filter =
    Based on object =
    .[LEVEL01]
    Object filter =
    Based on object =
    .[LEVEL01]
    In WBI query result I take these objects :
    .[LEVEL01]
    .[LEVEL01]
    .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y]
    In query filters, my 2 filters with same text :
    1.
    I run the query.
    Answer to question 'Single Year Period ?' = Period 06 2010
    ==> MDX error
    A database error occured. The database error text is: Echec de l'exécution de la requête MDX SELECT  { .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM SAP VARIABLES INCLUDING .[Z12010006] INCLUDING .[Z12010006] avec l'erreur Invalid MDX command with . (WIS 10901)
    And you can see that the value sent to both filters is the same and come from the first filter .[Z12010006] instead of applying the value to each filter .[Z12010006] for the first one and .[Z12010006] for the second one.
    Please, notice that if I change the order of this 2 filters in the WBI query, the MDX generated become :
    SELECT  { .[4IUX93YJGXQEHGLX0T0GPNA9Y] }  ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, .[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION ON ROWS FROM SAP VARIABLES INCLUDING .[Z12010006] INCLUDING .[Z12010006]
    Thanks for your help.

  • Executing multiple commands with sudo fails

    Hi,
    We're having trouble with sudo and bash.  When we want to execute multiple commands and there are spaces, the commands don't run.  Here's an example of what works:
    [root@erpapp1-prod ~]# sudo -i -u oracle bash -c 'ls;pwd'
    In this case, I get a listing of the files in /home/oracle followed by the current directory of /home/oracle.
    Here's an example of what DOESN'T work:
    [root@erpapp1-prod ~]# sudo -i -u oracle bash -c 'ls; pwd'
    Notice the space before "pwd".  In this case, all I get is the listing of files in /home/oracle.
    Caveat:  I'm a real beginner with Linux.  I've compared many of the files (/home/oracle/.bash_profile, /home/oracle/.bashrc, /etc/bashrc, /etc/profile) from this server to another where we don't have issues and, other than some logic being in different order, don't see much of a difference.  Again, very beginner here.
    Any ideas?  Thanks!
    Todd

    What shows up as a space may not necessarily be a space. For instance, it could be some control character like a newline, which might interfere with the execution. For example:
    $ test=`echo -e "test;\ntest"`
    $ echo $test
    test; test
    $ echo "$test"
    test;
    test
    Here is another example:
    # test=`echo -e "ls;\npwd"`
    # su - oracle -c "$test"
    oradiag_oracle
    /home/oracle
    # su - oracle -c $test
    oradiag_oracle
    I cannot guess how you construct the command list. Perhaps the problem is a text files that was created under Windows and copied as binary to Linux, or a shell script using a different IFS environment variable, etc.
    Personally I would use a different approach. From a security standpoint it is a bad idea to use passwords at the command prompt because every user can see them using the ps -ef  output.

  • How can I execute a Procedure with OUT variable is %ROWTYPE on SQL Prompt

    Hi,
    I have a procedure with OUT variable is %ROWTYPE
    How can I execute the following procedure on SQL prompt.
    (without creating anonymous block)
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE zz_sp_EMP(VEMPNO IN EMP.EMPNO%TYPE,
    V_REC IN OUT EMP%ROWTYPE)
    AS
    BEGIN
    SELECT * INTO V_REC FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = VEMPNO;
    END;
    Thanks & Regards,
    Naresh

    as previous posters said: it's not possible to do this without declaring a variable in the anonymous block.
    With anonymous block it would look like this (had to change it a bit, since i'm using hr-schema on oracle XE):
    declare
    l_rec EMPLOYEES%ROWTYPE;
    begin
    zz_sp_EMP(VEMPNO => 100, V_REC => l_rec);
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ( 'first_name = ' || l_rec.first_name );
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ( 'last_name = ' || l_rec.last_name );
    end;
    first_name = Steven
    last_name = King

  • Error when opening a workbook with mandatory variables

    BEx analyzer displays an error message window in the same time as the variable popup window.
    The worbook is linked to 1 query that uses 2 mandatory variables (month ?, year ?), and was defined in the test system.
    I assume that values are thus saved within the workbbok.
    The developper had 0bi_all autorisation.
    When a reporting user is opening it (also in the test system), the error message is displayed.
    This happens only the 1st time when Analyzer is started, and by clicking on the OK button, we are able to run the query.
    The next workbook refresh runs without the error message display.
    Question =  does anybody know the reason of this, and how to avoid the error message ?
    more infos:
    error message E019(R9E) appears for each variable (thus, 2 time with a query with 2 variables):
    Help type 5 is not valid for the platform NONE
    Exception 5 occured while calling IWB_HTML_HELP_URL_GET
    the details of this error message is:
    Diagnosis
       You tried to start the online help with help type on platform. Help type is not supported on this platform.
    System Response
       Profile parameter eu/iwb/help_type must contain a valid help type.
    Diagnosis
       The documentation is not correctly connected to the BI server.
    System Response
       The documentation cannot be displayed.

    i checked the query and authorisation with RSRV, but this didn't help, furthermore, a lot a functions are not implemented in the system, sorry.
    i also changed the query and workbook, and i think that it depends on the workbook release 3.x or 7.
    imagine following situations: same query 7.0, same workbook 7.0
    with BI7
    1) opening the query with variables doesn't display the error message
    2) refreshing the workbook with the query with variables displays the error message (only for a non mandatory variable - as soon as there is a variable, the error message is displayed)
    3) refreshing the workbook with the query without variables doesn't display the error message
    with BW 3.x
    4) refreshing a new workbook 3.x with the query with variables doesn't display the error message
    i also investigate in the function modules for workbooks (RS...), but nothing helped.
    i still think that it is linked to authorisations, because with sap_all, the message isn't displayed.
    how can i continue ?
