How to change directory in Terminal (ex. cd System HD)

hi
how to change directory in Terminal (ex. cd System HD)
i wrote cd system hd, which did not work. Terminal understood it as cd system.
is there some character to write a "space" between words?
thanks

You need to escape the spaces with a leading backslash or the shell will give you unexpected results.
For example to cd to "folder with spaces"
cd folder\ with\ spaces/
Also, the bash tab-auto-complete is your friend. Type a character or two and then tab, you'll get the idea when you see the result. If there is more than one possible completion, then hit tab a couple of times quickly and you'll get a list of all of the options.

  • How to change the SID for an existing system

    Hi All,
    I need to change the SID of the development and quality system without making a system copy.
    The requirement is on strict timeline basis so I need to find out an alternate way to do it. A system copy will need a lot more time to do the same which is the last option at this time.
    Please suggest.
    Relevant answers will be rewarded accordingly.

  • How to change directory for VOD files

    Hello..
    My company has recently asked me to install the Adobe Streaming Server 4.0.  I was wondering if it is possible to have the server software reside on the C: drive, while having my VOD files on seperate D: drive.  The staff here wants to separate the software (server in this instance) from the individual flash video files, so they have set up two drives.  Any suggestions here?  Can this be done, or do the files have to reside inside the VOD folder on the C: drive?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your interest in FMS 4.
    Yes , you can have the FMS installation in the C drive and the media files any where else. Go to the FMS installation directory and to the conf folder under it. There is a fms.ini configuration file where we can edit the settings for the vod folder. Find a variable VOD_DIR which is now pointing to the vod/media folder under FMS. Change it to the location that you would like to have.

    I'm not sure but i have read somewhere that, using getDocumentBase() instead of getCodeBase() to resolve the URL, returns the URL for "htmldir" (provided you are keeping the html page which loads the applet in that directory).
    You may have to change
    URL url = getCodeBase();to
    URL url = getDocumentBase();Hope this may help you....

  • How to change Business partner PERSON in GTS system

    Hi,
    I have developed an program to create business partner (Person, Contact person and Organization). But now I have to include code for changing Business partner.
    I have used BAPI_BUPA_FS_CREATE_FROM_DATA2   BAPI for Person creation. But now I am not finding any BAPI to change PERSON business partner.
    Let me know a BAPI or any other way to change PERSON BP.
    Thanks

    Hi experts,
    I am facing the exact same issue and was wondering:
    1.  Are there specific authorization objects that I can use to limit access on the web UI based on BP roles?  I found authorization object B_BUPA_RLT.  But does this work for just SAP GUI or web GUI as well?
    2.  I have read threads relating to another solution, to use a BADI to alternate configuration views.  Are there any other alternative solutions that are purely configuration based?
    Vinay,
    Could you provide details on which solution you eventually went with to solve your problem?
    Thanks,

  • How to change user account's Short Name

    Hopefully this is a fairly simple question.
    When I installed OX 10.3 I mispelled my short name, and now I'm can't find how to change it.
    Reffering specifically to: System Preference>Accounts>Short Name
    It's not super important, but would be handier to have it displaying correct for networking.
    If anyone can let me know how to change the short name, and any issues that may result from changing it, it would be great.
    Thanks for any input

    Hi baobhanjex!
    Here is a direct link that usually works, to the utility ChangeShortName by Dan Frakes.
    Read all of the instructions carefully, and proceed cautiously, as an improper change can result in unwanted results.

  • How to change the "short name (account name?)" and home directory name?

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new iMac and migrated account info from my MacBook Pro.  I happened to use random account name during migration without knowing it will not be easy to change the short name (account name?) and home directory name.  As a result, I am now having extremely confusing short name and home directory name on my new iMac.
    I did online search to find out how to change the two names, but I could only found somethig like "enabiling root user and....."  I have no idea what it was talking about and I don't want to take risk altering such advance set up manually.
    Please advice how I can change the short name and home directory name safely without much PC knowledge.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    There are a few ways of doing this. The easiest method is logging into the first account and copying everything to an external drive (or flash drive or whatever), which changes the permissions so that others can see the files.
    Then, login with the new account and copy the files over. Once they are copied, the correct permissions will be applied again (so other people on your computer can't access them).
    If you can't do this method for one reason or other, you can do some terminal commands to change the ownership of the files. Login to the new account. If it is an admin account, open terminal and type the following command:
    sudo chown -R -v yourusername:admin /Users/originalaccountnamehere
    That should change the ownership of the files from your old account to the new one. At that point, you can simply drag the files into place.

  • How to change default compile directory tmp_ejb?

    Dear all,
    Someone knows how to change the default directory "tmp_ejb...." in WebLogic Server
    7.0?
    This is the default directory where WebLogic Server 7.0 generates and compiles
    the EJB's declared in config.xml.
    I try to specify the attribute TmpPath="ANOTHER_TMP_LOCATION_DIRECTORY_FOR_EJB"
    in the EJBContainer node but still doesn't work.
    The same thing happens when I test this attribute on EJBComponent declaration.
    Someone knows if there is an enviroment variable that specify this tmp_ejb location
    path?
    It's false that the tmp_ejb is located where the config.xml file is placed.
    I have 3 weblogic servers and they haven't the same behaviour.
    Someone can help me??????
    Thanks.

    I ran into the same problem and was wondering if you got an aswer the question you posted in BEA's news group: "How to change default compile directory tmp_ejb?

  • How to change default directory of exe file

    I have created a VI that reads a template and writes on the template and saves it to a new file. When i created to an exe file, I would like for this exe to be able to be used on any computer. As such, the directory where i will open my template will change on different computers. Hence I am having this problem of how to change my VI such that it will choose this template in a new computer and set it as its default directory.
    I understand that in my own computer, I can simple "set current values as default" so that my VI will always open this file from a particular path. But what i need help with is when i put it on another computer where the particular path would definitely be different. I tried using the config file.vi but I could not understand how it is used.
    Please assist me in this. Thanks

    Hi Aaron,
    Micorsoft suggest to use folders like UserAppData to store files for your own programs.
    Put your template in there and use GetSystemDir function to get the UserAppData path...
    Or you put the template in the program folder or one of it's subfolder (not recommended by MS) and use a relative path to load it...
    Best regards,
