How to list files from a remote directory?

Hi,
I have a user interface on a PC that needs to display a directory listing of a remote RT processor. I don't want to have the RT to use List Directory function and the PC to get this result... I'm sure there's a cleaner way to do that with FTP or DataSocket. I've tried FTP, but it stalls in FTP Directory Listing.vi.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Patrick.

There are a number of reasons why the Directory lister can hang. The best thing to do is try the "FTP browser.vi" found in the example finder. If you have the internet toolkit it will show up if you search for "FTP." In this example program, type in your RT unit's IP address and see if you can browse the directory structure. If it works you can use any portion of this program in your own application. Hope this helps.

How to list files from .jar file in applet?

I have created applet and export all files to .jar file.
I use File.list() method in applet to list files from one directory and that works ok but if I try to do that from web browser it sends exception AccessDenied meaning that File.list() isn't allowed in browser.
I know what's the problem but I don't know how to solve it.
What I want is to read from directory list of files.
Help anyone?

I will post here my code so that can be seen what I want to do:

Method init() is irelevant, it just adds JTextPane in applet.
Method start() is relevant, it runs normaly when started from Eclipse but from browser it sends exception AccessDenied.

How to make a remote panel file dialog open remote directory from any computer

Hello to everybody. I am using Labview 6.1 and I would like to know how to make a remote panel file dialog open remote directory from any computer (Not only from a specific computer. If I open the file with a specific computer, I have to conect the path of the remote machine, but if I don´t know which remote computer is going to run the aplication, how can I do it?)?

Hi!
first you have to know progammatically the name of the remote pc connected to your server: this is a problem!
I did not find a straigth way, LV 6.1 doesn't allow much progammatic control on the remote panel connection feature, but I'm confident that in the next LV version this will be improved!
The point is that the Remote Panel Connection Manager (from the Tools menu) has all the informations about the connection: client name, server vi and whatever.
This application is embedded in the \PROJECT\REMOTEPANEL.LLB and consists of a set of password protected vis.
So here's the trick: use VIServer to grab data from the rpcm Get Server Data.vi when the Remote Panel Connection Manager is in run mode. By this you get all the informations (not only client name)o
f the remote panel connection. See my example.
By the way use client machine name to build the file dialog function input path.
If anybody has an alternative method it would be more than appreciated to share it.
Good luck,
Alberto Locatelli

Getting a list of files from a shared directory

Hi All,
I need to get a list of files from a shared directory on another server and put them in a HTMLB TableView element with links to the files.
I was not successful with CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES. This method works in test mode, but gives me a gui_not_supported exception in BSP. I guess BSPs are not allowed to use this.
Is there any other alternative?
I need to be able to upload the files as well.
Thanks,
Roman
Message was edited by: Roman Dubov

Hi again,
Not sure about the shared directory files list...
In my opinion, this cannot be done using BSP.
But, you can try using VBScript to access the file system with object of that sort :
CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
it is only a thought and you can be sure to cross security problems by accessing files through a Web application...
Best regards,

I believe you used ntfs for a reason. As far as I know, Windows isn't friendly with hdd filesystems others than fat or ntfs, so once you format your external harddrive to ext4, windows won't talk to it at all, unless you install some additional driver or software.
You have several possibilities to do:
1) You could use FAT32, it's kind of a dumb filesystem, linux, mac and windows can read and write to it, there are some limitations like file permisions or 4GB file size limit.
2) You could make multiple partitions on your external harddrive, one with ntfs (for windows) and the other with some fs that is support natively in Linux and Mac, I believe only option would be HFS+. I'm not an expert, maybe somebody will correct me. Anyway, if you aren't going to connect your disk to Mac, than ext4 would be a good choice. But this approach with two different partions is kind of dumb, because usually you need the same data available on whatever platform.
3) If I were you, I would continue using NTFS or FAT32. It's not ideal, but it's a price you have to pay for dealing with Windows systems.
4) If there is any other smarter solution, I believe somebody will add it to responses bellow.
Anyway, it's weird that your problem persists. There has to be something wrong with your filesystem, otherwise ls wouldn't show you question marks in its output. Did you perform chkdisk via GUI? It has to say that either there wasn't any error with your fs, or that there was some error. We live (unfortunatelly) in binary computer world. I mean you can perform that command from shell, or however microsoft calls it, and if you run it in a proper configuration, it will tell you whether your fs is bad or not and perform needed repairs.
And how to format disk to ext4?
Backup your data, run as root fdisk /dev/yourexthdd (fdisk /dev/sdd), delete all partitions, create new ones, once you are done, write changes down. fdisk is pretty easy to use, don't be afraid of it. Then you have to create filesystem on each partition you created with fdisk, so if you created only one, run mkfs.ext4 /dev/yourexthddwithpartnumber (mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdd1). There are nice articles about doing these things on Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_Systems), don't be worried to read them

How to pickup files from multiple directories

Hi all,
How to pickup files from multiple directories and send it to two different folders at target
Ex:
files\xi\us\US.txt
files\xi\uk\UK.txt
i need to pick up the above mentioned two files and send it to the following paths
app1\files\us\download\US.txt
app1\files\uk\download\UK.txt
US.txt has to goto US folder and UK.txt has to goto UK folder only
Regards

Hi,
To pick form multiple folders, select Advanced Mode for file selection in file adapter..
there u can specify directory name/file names
Refer
/people/mickael.huchet/blog/2006/09/18/xipi-how-to-exclude-files-in-a-sender-file-adapter
To put those files at multiple folders write a command line arguments for this.. go through this weblog...

List files stored in a Directory Object

Hi,
I looked on Google, on Oracle DB docs and here to find a convenient way to list files stored in a DIRECTORY for batch loading in a table with PL/SQL. But no luck, UTL_FILE doesn't seem to have a method for directory listing. I saw examples with some workaround like putting files list in a text file prior to loading. The directory is feeded by other process and network services, so I don't know the filelist that I need to import and, then delete. I dont have access to the server console and it's impossible for me to dump a kind of «dir» result into a text file. I saw other examples using Java, but it looks like I don't have access to Server Side Java too.
Is there a simple way to do that in PL/SQL only?
If not, I'll ask to the DBA the necessary rights to compile/run java on the server side...
The DB target versions for this requirement are 10g and 11g (mainly) on Windows environment.
Thanks
Bruno

The XUTL_FINDFILES seems to be the more convenient way. If that works for you, I certainly have no objection. In a lot of environments, though, that package would be problematic.
1) It must be installed in the SYS schema. That's generally frowned upon and lots of sites would never allow user code to go into the SYS schema. Chris is a bright guy, so I'm sure the risk of it causing harm is minimal (most likely during an install or upgrade), and it will almost certainly never cause you harm, but that would be a political show-stopper at a lot of places.
2) The package body is wrapped (if there is a version with the package body in clear text, this point is moot). Again, Chris is a well-respected guy, so I have every confidence that the code is not malicious, but asking a DBA to install a wrapped package you downloaded from the internet into the SYS schema on a production database should generate a crud-load of red flags. This is almost certainly just a theoretical danger, but DBAs and audit compliance regulations care a great deal about theoretical dangers. If someone hacked the web site and uploaded their own wrapped bit of code that had a back door, for example, it would be very hard to catch.
3) Under the covers, the package is querying one of the undocumented X$ views. Oracle is free to change those views over time, which would potentially cause the package to stop working or stop working correctly in some way. If you're developing code for a system that may be around for a number of years, that becomes a concern. It's unlikely that Oracle will change the particular X$ view that is being referenced here over the lifetime of your code base, but it's more than a trivial concern.
4) The package is determining what directories a user has access to, that's not Oracle enforcing the restriction. Probably not too big a deal, but it is probably safer from a regulatory compliance standpoint to be able to rely on Oracle the database enforcing privileges rather than relying on a delivered package to enforce those privileges. It's the difference between telling Oracle via specific grants which directories the JVM can access vs. writing your own wrapper that enforces those restrictions. In the end, the restrictions are enforced, but in one case you're relying on the developers of the Oracle database and in the other you're relying on external developers.
Just to re-iterate-- Chris is a brilliant guy, I don't mean this in any way to impugn him or his code. I am totally confident that his code works, that it works well, and that it will continue to work going forward. My concerns are purely on the political/ regulatory side of things, not on the technical side of things. Technically, I am confident that the code is top-notch.

I previously had PS CS5 Trial installed but removed it using both Control Panel Programs and deleting all files from the CS5 directory on Program Files. I then installed a purchased product from Adobe disc using the serial number on the case. But when I try to launch it, I get a screen headed Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial. It asks for the serial number and says that my trial has expired. It rejects the serial number from the Adobe case saying "This Serial Number is not valid for this product". It thinks that I still have the expired Trial Version installed. How do I convince it (the program) that the Trial Version is long gone and the currently installed product was installed with a valid and accepted serial number????

Let me know how it goes. Go into your Adobe account and register your serial number asap.

HT1379 Summary: how to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards.

How to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards?
Insert the SD card.
System opens iPhoto with SD contents.
Want to transfer files from SD card to system drive. iPhoto closes
SD card directory removed from the Finder window and is not available again.
I don't want to have to reboot the system every time I want to perform this option.
What's wrong here.
The support columns show this isn't an isolated incident with all sorts of solutions possible.
This is a simple task - there should be a simple method for the system to recognize SD cards.
What's the answer?
I've reviewed a recommendation to reset the SMC.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18500187#18500187
and

and another thread that says, basically, you must buy extra hardware to perform this simple task,

another one that has the same problem with OS Mountian Lion,
https://discussions.apple.com/message/21919740#21919740
another one with the problem that says SD cards can't be read by Apple unless the card is formatted specifically for Apple, ie. that Apple is not compatible with other cards, but the problem maybe something else that requires Apple service - (bad SD card reader?).
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18711818#18711818
there are probably more discussions, but I dont' want to spend my entire sunny in Seattle day working this.
thanks for the help!

When I plug in an SD card, the finder window shows it under the DEVICES section. At this point, I can drag the contents to the hard drive. However, when I screw up and click the character on the right side of the name - it apparently closes the SD card and I can't find any command to reload or re-recognize the card. I have to remove and reinsert the card and then sometimes it recognizes the card. Other times I reboot and it will recognize it.
What does that character on the right side of the SD card name do? Is it an eject function - with no way to subsequently reread the drive?
It ejects or unmounts the card. When the SD card mounts click on it once to highlight it and then drag the files shown within it to the new folder.

I'm a new comer to this famous forum. I was trying to go through the PDF "Solaris Advanced User's Guide" .So in chapter 9-"Using the network" i came across "Copying Files From a Remote Machine". And the syntax was "rcp machinename:source destination" . And i got another note. It is like
"The rcp command enables you to copy files from one machine to another. This command uses the remote machine's /etc/hosts.equiv and /etc/passwd files to determine whether you have unchallenged access privileges. The syntax for rcp is similar to the command syntax for cp.".
But i maintained remote machine's IP address in my system's /etc/hosts file. But still i am unable to do the rcp from remote system to my system or vice versa.
Always i am getting error message " **Connection refused**".
Therefore please some one guide me how to perform the " Copying Files From a Remote Machine" through rcp command.

Hi
The inconvenience of using scp is that you have to type the password every time you stablish a connection. You can work around this, adding a key into the remote hosts_allow file. This implies in more maintenance.
From the rcp man page:
+rcp does not prompt for passwords. It either uses Kerberos authentication which is enabled through command-line options or your current local user name must exist on hostname and allow remote command execution by rsh(1).+
From the rsh man page:
+ If you omit command, instead of executing a single command, rsh logs you in on the remote host using rlogin(1).+
By default, rlogin is disabled on Solaris 10
[SunOS 5.10/bash] root@wgtsinf01:/store/sun/operating-systems
# svcs -a|grep -i rlog
disabled May_11 svc:/network/login:rloginSo, to use rcp you have to enable the rlogin service and set up all the configuration files. Particularly, as already suggested, I too suggest you to use scp. :)
