How can I specify relative SubVI file path in VIs?

I use LabVIEW 2009 Service Pack 1.
SubVIs are referenced by absolute paths, so when I move them to a new folder I may need to set their paths again.
How can I make a SubVI reference a relative path so that I don't have to set its path after moving VIs to a new folder or a new drive?

[...]Where did you encounter any problems?
From my experience, most of those problems occur when moving VI files directly on disk (Windows File Explorer) individually.
@OP:
Altenbach brought up a good point: When moving/copying the project, take care that all project related sources are within a single project folder. Move/copy the whole project folder, keeping its internal setup. In most cases, that is doing fine.
When moving individual files (VIs), make sure that you use the LV Project Explorer to do so. Add all files used in the project into a single lvproj and then swap to the "Files" tab. Rightclick the individual VI you want to move and select "Move on Disk" from the context menu. This will auto-update all (known) callers as well.
hope this helps,

:-) How can we change the default file path for Bank file ( dmee ) ?

Hi All,
We encounter a problem.
Electronic bank file ( created after a F110 run ) are created, in an automatic way to the DIR_TEMP directory. ( On the SAP server )
How can we change the default file path for Bank files ( dmee ) ?
We'd like to specify another path.
Thx for your help.
Erwan

Hello,
Make sure that you have created the directory in transaction code AL11 with the help of basis consultants.
You can link your PC directory to the application server.
You can maintain the path whether your file needs to get saved in OBPM4 against your DMEE structure example GB_BACS etc.
If you do not maintain any path in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory. If you give the directory path name in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to that directory with numbers 0001, 0002, 0003 etc till it reaches 9999 and reset from the beginning.
If you give the path as well as file name as ABCD, then the file gets generated to that directory folder with ABCD0001, ABCD0002, ABCD0003 etc. till it reaches ABCD9999 and reset from the beginning.
Hope this solves your problem.

Teststand 1.03 - How can I get the sequence file path into an expression?

The sequence file will be located at different locations on different computers. I need the base address of the sequence file to get to the correct limits file. How can I get the sequence file path into a string-local expression.
Thanks

As Ray described, the FindFile expression function and TS API method will seach all TS search directories and return to you the path of your file, assuming the file is located in the search directories.
If you just want the path of a TS file that you have a reference to then there is a faster, easier method. You can use the Path property of the PropertyObjectFile class. In the attached example I use an AcitiveX Automation adapter step to call Path on the property RunState.SequenceFile. This returns the path to the current executing sequence file. Note that if you have not yet saved the sequence file then the path will be empty. In a subsequence step I strip off the file name leaving the root path of the file.

How can I specify an SFTP directory path that has spaces in it?

The directory (path) on my SFTP server has spaces in some of the folder names: e.g. /data/Cisco Products/UC Applications/
How can I specify this path in the directory field of a remote server definition if I want to upload files from my SFTP server to the CUCM?
I've tried surrounding the whole path in quotes, %, *, backslash space, point, hash...running out of things to try. Must be possible...surely?!#
Thank-you
-Rob.

I haven't tried this but when i hit tab to auto complete on a linux machine i notice a space and backslash between two words. I can see you tried backslash space. Try space backspace - <word><space><backslash><word>

How can I change the log file path instead of storing log in server.log

Hi,
I have created one domain and modified the attribute "log-file" in element "virtual-server" element to point to the new log file path.
But when I start up my domain, it still saying: "Log redirected to DOMAIN_LOCATION/logs/server.log.
Why?
Why it doesn't log to the file I specify? How can I change it?
Thanks.
Ken

I have changed the logging option to my specific path in admin console as what you said. I have also changed the logging in domains attribute too.
But still there is some logging info in domains/<dom_name>/logs/server.log instead of the path and file I specified.
Is it possbily related to linux user role setting? the Sunone AS is installed and configured by root user. But the domain is created for another user, hence I want to forward all logging info to that user's home path.

Can you specify a new file path for album artwork in iTunes?

I want to store my music and the iTunes program on a drive other than my C Drive. I moved Windows' "My Music" folder from the "My Documents" along with the iTunes program and all my music to the new drive. I've changed the file path for the iTunes music folder location, but when I update my library iTunes creates the "My Music" folder in "My Documents" and downloads the album artwork there. How can I change this so iTunes will save the album artwork in the same place it saves the music? Is this possible?

Hi,
The column's style classes will be added on the <td> elements, not the header sadly. So for your use case you'll have to place the class on the table itself then use the selector
af|table.MyStyleClass af|column.formHeader::header-text{}Sadly this will affect all columns, not just one so I don't know if it's going to fir your need.

How Can I get the Jar file path ?

I have an aplication in a Jar file. This application might be situated in any directory.
I would like to know programatically the path where it was installed.
Is there any way to know this simple thing in Java? I cannot believe that there is not a function like System.getProperty("user.dir") for this as System.getProperty("user.dir") will always return the directory from where the Java VM was lauched!
Thank you!

You can get the location with:
URL codeBase = getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeBase().getLocation();But as has been pointed out, it's probably better to specify the directory to store these files some other way, e.g. use a batch file or shell script to launch your program and make it the cuirrent directory, or put the directory in as a property or command argument.

Rules: How can I specify the repository file?

Hello,
I am trying to define the repository file but, as I am using a internet explorer which is not in the same machine as the product, I cannot see the browse to select the file location.
The product is in HP machine. Do I have to write some special character such as "file://<path_file>" or "machine:<path_file>"
I am trying with <path_file> and it doesn't work.
Best regards,
Miguel

Thank you,
I will try resetting the SMC and PRAM whatever this might mean and also
I will try to add more memory as mine is only 4GB and an SSD drive.
The funny thing is that my son advised me exactly the same thing a week ago
but I did not have the chance to fix this yet! He is going to laugh when I tell him your suggestion

Just remove the c:\ and it will be looked for in the current directory.
If you want the script how get the script path and remove the file name or use the shell
currentFolder = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").CurrentDirectory
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can any one suggest me how can I use relative path inside SSIS pacakge to access config file ?

Can any one suggest me how can I use relative path inside SSIS pacakge to access config file ? Please help me as its urgent.THanks for your help in advance.

Hi Jay,
SSIS can only recognize the absolute path of a XML Configuration file, the relative path is not supported. Furthermore, if the XML Configuration file is already generated, we can use the Environment variable package configuration type instead so that
SSIS runtime automatically looks for the configuration file from the path defined in the environment variable. This is convenient when we need to deploy a package to different environment. We only need to define the environment variable for package configurations
once on each server, and then the variable can be used by all the packages on this server.

How can I write relative path in File, ImageIcon objects

I have downloaded examples from
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/example-swing/index.html
but for some reason images are invisible until I write absolute paths?(I use windows) How can I write relative path in File, ImageIcon objects?

Hello;
I've found a lot of complaints about this through the Forte forum as well as on Dejanews. I'm just curious as to whether any of you ended up finding a solution to this problem.
There was one posting about setting up the subdirectory as a URL rather than a String and then using that as the source of the ImageIcon ... but this didn't work for me.
Any help whatsoever would be appreciated.
Thanks!

My installation of Itunes to syne my iphone with PC was missing AppleApplicationSupport.msi after 2 installs how can I install such a file do you have a path for this

Hi kensb!
I would recommend that you attempt to reinstall all of the programs and components of iTunes on your machine and reinstall everything again. It can be tricky to get everything uninstalled, so we have an article that can help you make sure you uninstall everything:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
Specifically, when it comes to uninstalling, you will want to uninstall applications in this order:
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order. Then, restart your computer.
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended effects.
You will then want to follow the links in those articles to download the latest package of iTunes software for your computer and install again from there. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

I bought a relative's original iPad. I want to leave the apps on it and add my own pdfs to read. My itunes account is really for my iPod. the computer says that if I "Sync" the iPad will be erase, and become like my iPods. how can I just get my files onto

I am a first-time iPad owner/user. I bought a relative's original iPad. I want to leave the apps on it and add my own pdfs to read. My itunes account is really for my iPod. iTunes message says that if I "Sync" the iPad will be erase, and become like my iPods. If I make a new iTunes account, would the apps be erased when I tried to use it?
How can I just get my files onto this iPad, and still have the apps that my relative left there for me?
Thank you.

iPads sync to 1 computer only.
All media and apps are tied to the Apple ID that purchased them.
Without your relatives ID and password, you cannot update any of the Apps.
I am pretty certain he is also violating Apples terms of service by giving you the apps.

How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties file?

How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties file without clustering?
I am using oracle 10g Application server. we have 3 servers Repsvr1, RepSvr2 and RepSvr3. Now i need to configure rwservlet.properties file to point to these servers based on any running report. i got 3 keymap files with reports info.
Sample entry in the key map file is:
key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
rwservlet.properties file letting me to enter only one servername. Even though i merged all 3 keymap files into 1, still i have the server name issue. If i leave the server to the default name still i am getting the below error.
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server Repsvr1 failed. However, i know the default rep_<servername> would be used incase we dont have SERVER=<value> parameter in the rwservlet.properties file.
If i specify the servername in the rwservlet.properties file then only Repsvr1 reports are working fine and other 2 server reports are giving the same error like
REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed.
how can i configure the info which will work all 3 reports. 2 Port servers are invoking using oracle forms and report server is invoking using ASP pages.
If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error, whenever i am trying to integrate all 3 to workable i am getting binding error. if i exclude the server from rwservlet.properties still i am getting the same error.

My RELOAD_KEYMAP setting is YES only.As i said If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error.
keymap file entries
key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
If i use http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key1 should bring the report from Repsvr1 and http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key2 should bring the report from Repsvr2, but i am getting an error from Repsvr2 saying that REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsvr2 failed.
Only Servername Repsvr1 is in rwservlet.properties file. Now what is the best option to by pass the server from rwservlet.properties file and should be from keymap file. if i comment server name in rwservlet.properties file still i am getting REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed error for both keys.
