Help required in reading a file from Shared location on Network

Hi,
I need help in reading a file from a shared location. Can you kindly tell me the pattern for inputting the shared location path. I am using fileUtilService>Exists
"\\Shiva\test\shared\eForms\temp.xlsx" is the actual location of the file. How should i input the location in the INPUT variable of EXISTS.

readResource content operation will fetch documents from Adobe Repository. Unless you checkin the required file into repository, the above error will remain.
From a shared folder, you should able to read the files using readDocument (using FileUtils) without any issues. Perhaps, the access rights prevent the execution.
If you are running JBoss as a windows service (turnkey will create a windows service for the JBoss instance), try the following:
Run -> services.msc -> Right click on JBoss service for Adobe LiveCycle -> Properties
Check the value given under logon tab. The User Account mentioned there should have appropriate access to the shared folder you are attempting read.

How to read .mdb file from shared folder

Hi All,
In one of my local computer I have a shared folder and within the folder I have a .mdb file. Now I am trying to read that file from MII. I have tried with Get_File_List action block. I am providing the following information to Get_File_List
Folder :
<Computer Name>\<Shared Folder Name>
Mask: .mdb
But in return of Get_File_List, I am not getting any file related information. It is only providing like below
<Rowsets>
<Rowset>
<Columns>
<Column Description="Name" MaxRange="0" MinRange="0" Name="Name" SQLDataType="1" SourceColumn="Name"/>
<Column Description="Date" MaxRange="0" MinRange="0" Name="Date" SQLDataType="93" SourceColumn="Date"/>

Reading XML file from specific location&Storing xmldata into related tables

I am new to xml.
My requirement is,
1) Get the xml file from specified location (C:\xmlfiles\ xmldata.xml)
2)Convert xml data in clob data.
3)store the data into related table.
and vice-versa.
What i did,
a) I got the data from related tables and converted into xmlformat using SQLX
b)converted this resultset into clob data and stored as xml file in specific location.
It uses more then ten tables.
All this help i got from AskTom site , thanks for that.
Now i have to do vise-versa, i.e. i have to perform 1), 2), 3) steps........
Please tell me proper steps to acheive it.
Thanks in advance for giving your precious time to solve my issue.

Have you read the"XMLDB FAQ" in this Forum?
You could use stuff like:
create or replace directory xmldir as C:\xmlfiles'
declare
xmldata xmltype;
begin
xmldata := xmltype(bfilename('XMLDIR','xmldata.xml'),nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'));
-- etc, etc your code --
-- --> convert to clob by using for instance getclobval() function
-- --> then insert the data in your relational table with CLOB column
-- etc, etc your code --
end;

Help required in accessing a file on shared path

Hi,
I am trying to access a file present in a shared location using a custom component. When i run my Java code the file is accessible. But when i deploy the same code on livecycle as a custom component, the code is not able to access the file.
The location of the file is as follows: \\Shiva\Test\tempExcel.xlsx
The path string i use in Java code is: ////Shiva//Test//tempExcel.xlsx
Can someone help me with this issue. Do i have to change the pattern of the file path when i am trying to access the file from adobe livecycle custom component?
In case i need to provide permissions to livecycle for accessing the Excel sheet please suggest on how i should implement the same.

Help with utl_file (read/write file from local directory)

Need help reading/writing file on local machine from plsql using 10.2 DB.
I am trying to read/write a file from a local directory(laptop) without success.
I have been able to read/write to the database server directory but can't write to directory on local machine.
The utl_file_dir parm has been set to * and the db restarted but I can't get it to work... Here's the plsql statement.
out_file := UTL_FILE.FOPEN ( 'C:\PLSQL', 'TEST.TXT', 'W' ,32767);
Whenever I run it continues to write to c:\PLSQL dir on the database server. Have looked at the "Directory" object and created MY_DIR = C:\PLSQL but it writes to the db server.
Running 10.2 on a remote windows server, running PLSQL using sql*navigator.
Thanks in advance for your help..

I don't see how you expect the server to be able to see your laptop across the network, hack into it and start writing files. Even if it could, what if there is more than one laptop with a C: drive? How would it know which one to write to?
Is there a shared drive on the server you can access via the laptop?

Which Updates are required to read RAW files from a Nikon D300

iPhoto 6 on Tiger can't read RAW (nef) files from my Nikon D300. Can I just update to iLife'08 or do I need Leopard as well?

AndyMm
I'm not sure about iPhoto 08, but you will definitely need 10.5.2 for the D300.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1475
So if you don't want to update to iLife 08, try update to 10.5 first, see if that works for you.

Help required in reading properties file

Hi,
I have ApplicationResources.properties in one of my package say, aaa/bbb/ccc/ApplicationResources.properties
I need to read this from a Java main class located in another package aaa/bbb/ddd/Info.java
This is read to get the version details of the war file that is created by running in the command prompt.
ApplicationResources.properties is formed inside a jar file which is available in the war file. Because of this, I am not able to access the property file directly by running the war file.
Please help.

Robis-a_m wrote:
Because of this, I am not able to access the property file directly by running the war file.Because of what? If it is in the classpath, you should just be able to access it.
Where and how are you trying to access it then?

Reading files from shared lib in WAS 5.1

I have a shared library name 'files' in WAS 5.1. The classpath is ${TEST_FILES}/shared.
I have some textfiles in that directory, not properties files. Can I read those file from that directory from Session Bean like
File f = new File("${TEST_FILES}/shared/some_file.txt");
Can't have that done. What is the right way to do it? Or is there any?

Enterprise beans aren�t allowed to access files primarily because files are not transactional resources. Allowing EJBs to access files or directories in the file system, or to use file descriptors, would compromise component distributability, and would be a security hazard.
Another reason is deployability. The EJB container can choose to place an enterprise bean in any JVM, on any machine in a cluster. Yet the contents of a file system are not part of a deployment, and are therefore outside of the EJB container�s control. File systems, directories, files, and especially file descriptors tend to be machine-local resources. If an enterprise bean running in a JVM on a particular machine is using or holding an open file descriptor to a file in the file system, that enterprise bean cannot easily be moved from one JVM or machine to another, without losing its reference to the file.
Furthermore, giving EJBs access to the file system is a security hazard, since the enterprise bean could potentially read and broadcast the contents of sensitive files, or even upload and overwrite the JVM runtime binary for malicious purposes.
Having said all this, my understanding is that the EJB file restriction can be broken if the developer really, really knows what they are doing and accepts the consequences such as those above. I did this on a recent WebSphere project and accessed files in a named directory on the application server box using the standard file IO APIs. It just meant that if the application was deployed to another server, the same directory structure would need to be recreated.
If you're working with read-only data a more appropriate way would be to store the files in a deployment JAR, and access then with the getResource() or getResourceAsStream() methods of java.lang.Class.

Windows 2008 : How to Restrict Users to Copy file from Shared Folder

Hello All,
I need to Restrict Users to Copy file from Shared Folder. Please let me know is there any method to achieve this requirement.

If user have Read permission, they can copy it. So actually you cannot restrict user from copy your files if they could read/edit.
Some programs could help restrict users from edit/modify/copy the content of their files such as Office files, PDF files etc as Oscar said above.

Can't copy file from Shared Folder

Hi,
Does anyone here knows how to copy file from shared music. I can view others shared music but can't do anything about it. When I tried to Right Click on music I want to copy. There are only 3 options (Get info, Unchecked Selection & Copy). I chose copy, but don't know what to do next. I wanted to place it in my Library but don't have an option to do it.
Please help.
Thanks,
guadz

I've never copied music, but have you tried just dragging the file to your library? Not 100% sure if it works, never tried it myself. Also, if you right click in your library, can you paste?

Error while reading a file from server

Mine is 9i database and 11.5.10.2 oracle apps server
I am trying to read PDF file from server, I used the below code
l_bfile:=bfilename('\u05\app\applmgr\11i\oraclecomn\admin\out\jamuna_server','o7742576.out');
if DBMS_LOB.FILEEXISTS(l_bfile) = 1 then
dbms_output.put_line( 'Exists!');
dbms_output.put_line(dbms_lob.getlength(l_bfile));
else
dbms_output.put_line( 'Not Exists!');
end if;
i used forward slashes (/) instead of backward slashes (\) too and i also made dbms_output.put_line(to_char(dbms_lob.getlength(l_bfile)));
while using dbms_log package , i got the below error .I am bit worried since I have created directory and gave sufficicent priviliges too.
Error report:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested

Can you please suggest me what I can do to move further? what kind of priviliges it requires to point and read the file from server?

I suspect you are not using a directory object is the problem.

OTHERS = 4
can any one help me out to get the exact data..
Really appreciate your quick response..
Thank You

Hi, if you really retrieve an excel file, you can not see the data in ABAP. You may see them in Excel. For this you may use
CALL METHOD document->open_document_from_table
of the interface i_oi_document_proxy for OLE objects. You can access the data with reference to the interface i_oi_spreadsheet.
Please check [Desktop Office Integration (BC-CI)|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCCIOFFI/BCCIOFFI.pdf] for details.
But, who knows, perhaps you want "And Now For Something Completely Different".
