How to run a script automatically once a day

Hi everybody
I need some help: I should run a script in Illustrator once a day, automatically at 23 p.m.
What is the easiest way to do this?

What about: Scheduling "open" & "close" Illustrator in the Windows scheduler and then putting the script in the startup folder of illustrator.
Should be working, right?
-> Closing Illustrator at 10 p.m.
-> Opening Illustrator at 11 p.m.
-> Running Script at Startup of Illustrator

How to run a Discoverer graph once per day for my intranet site

Hello,
I would like to run a particular worksheet graph once per day, and place it on my intranet site. For performance reasons I don't want Discoverer to re-run the worksheet every time a user views the graph.
Could someone kindly point me towards somewhere I can read about how to do this, or indeed offer some guidance ? I'd like to know how to generate my graph on a regular basis, and how I can construct a URL to link it into my intranet home page.
I am very appreciative of any help,
Steve - a Discoverer "newbie" :)

What version are you running?
In 5.31, what I would do is to have the main set M-F then use a different job (like a cmd echo or powershell write-host) on weekends that inserts the MF set at the time you want with a job event \ job insert action. This would override the time and execute when you want (you could probably just use one for SAT, SUN). we do similar things to avoid maintenance windows.
You might lose any downstream dependecies if the original is in a nested group but that might even work with a slight modification to the job depdency with the match occurance check box (relative to group, otherwise, for day) option
It would be best if tidal let you add multiple calendars to one job, not sure if that is in the works but it should be on their radar.

How to run a script automatically just before Reboot or Shutdown

Hello all,
Could someone tell me what folder or what entries to be made if I want an event to take place before the machine actually start the reboot/shutdown process. For instants, i usually mount my USB flash drive but sometime I forget to umount it, which will cause a dirty file system when restarting the machine. Would anyone have an example to get me going. It's just like when rc.conf will do added things for you during start-up if special code/script was inserted.
There are other things I like to do before the machine reboot or shutdown, like, to run a very small scripts to automatically kill a certain process "first", before the rest and before rebooting. I'm sure I can write the code but I don't know where it goes.
Thanks in advance
PS: Thanks fsckd, Your explanation of SKIP/SEEK for dd has never been explained so well in any documentation, or on ANY web-site I ever been to in 6 months pass. Now I know how it really works and i'm getting it down to a science. I did not use it for what my thread indicate because in the end the other suggestions were better, but still I Thank God I finally know how to use SKIP/SEEK in dd. dd is my most use tool for what I do.

There something new every day to learn with this OS. Just when you get one thing right here's comes another. I guest it took 20 years to build LINUX and I read the kernel has something like 10 - 30 million lines of code or better. Some how I lost the better link that went much deeper. 30 million lines of code mean billions of documentation to read. But you still got to find the right one first. So I guest we read and still have to ask questions just to get to the good parts, and than ...

How to run a script on Oracle server from isqlplus

Hi I am trying to run a script on my workstation from Oracle server through isqlplus workarea. I entered following command and get the following error. i have enabled isqlplus URL by editing web.xml file already. Can please someone help how to run the script?
@http://myaixserver.com:5560/scripts/Databasestartupstages.sql;
SP2-0920: HTTP error 'page not found (505)' on attempt to open URL

So far, you haven't specified your rdbms version and isqlplus behaved differently on a 9iR1, 9iR2 from the one release on 10gR1/R2. on 9i it was a servlet based on a JServ servlet executor machine, meanwhile on 10g it is a J2EE compliant application deployed on an OC4J container, so configuration is different.

How to run a script from Calculation Manager

Hi All,
I would like to know how to run a script made by using Calculation Manager. I have converted a simple rule script which has just one statement(HS.EXP "A#Sales = 100") in "Sub Calculate()" by using FMRulesMigrator.exe and then imported, deployed to an application. when I execute "Calculate" from a Data Grid, the rule didn't take effect to application data. If I load the script by using classic rule editor, it works fine.
Is there anything I have to know to run a rule script which is made by using Calculation Manager?
Thanks in advance.

Applescript: How to run a script once upon logon for multiple users

I'm deploying a NetRestore image to about 150 Macs which will be using Active Directory and I've designed a custom default user for each new user. However, our system requires a specialized certificate that has to be installed on the local login.keychain for each user otherwise network connectivity is impacted.
I've tried to use the security command through Terminal to install the certificate, but no matter what combination of commands, I cannot seem to get that to work properly even with an already-created user. While it will often say it's installed, the cert will not actually show up in the login keychain in Keychain Access. And the network connectivity is still impacted.
So instead, I created a brief AppleScript that just gives the user brief instructions to click "Add" on the prompt for which Keychain to add the cert and then "Always Trust" for the "This cert is not verified" prompt. Then it launches Keychain Access. Originally, I was going to have it actually click the buttons for the user, but I realized trying to get the whole Accessibility apps and assitive devices to work on every new user would be a nightmare.
I created the script on another 10.9 Mac using Automator to make it an actual application. I've used the instructions in OS X: Using AppleScript with Accessibility and Security features in Mavericks to sign it and I'm using root to move it from its network location into the Applications folder. I've adjusted the permissions to allow all Admin users to r/w (along with everyone else). To the root user, it shows as a usable application, but every other user on the Mac sees it as damaged/incomplete.
What I want to do is add it to the default Login Items, so I can run the final AppleScript command to simply remove the login items listing. That way I don't need to worry about it running again, but it's still available for the next user to sign onto the deployed Mac.
I know it's a little convoluted, but this is the final piece to the NetRestore deployment I've been working on for months. Any suggestions on how to make this work (or even a completely different solution) would be greatly appreciated.
Here was the original shell script in case you're curious.
#!/bin/bash
## Prompt for current user admin for use in Certificate Install
while :; do # Loop until valid input is entered or Cancel is pressed.
    localpass=$(osascript -e 'Tell application "System Events" to display dialog "Enter your password for Lync Setup:" default answer "" with hidden answer' -e 'text returned of result' 2>/dev/null)
    if (( $? )); then exit 1; fi # Abort, if user pressed Cancel.
    localpass=$(echo -n "$localpass" | sed 's/^ *//' | sed 's/ *$//') # Trim leading and trailing whitespace.
    if [[ -z "$localpass" ]]; then
        # The user left the password field blank.
        osascript -e 'Tell application "System Events" to display alert "You must enter the local user password; please try again." as warning' >/dev/null
        # Continue loop to prompt again.
    else
        # Valid input: exit loop and continue.
        break
    fi
done
echo $localpass | sudo security import /'StartupFiles'/bn-virtual.crt ~/Library/Keychain/login.keychain
osascript -e 'tell Application "System Events" to delete every login item whose name is "LyncCert"
And this is the AppleScript itself. (I used the \ to make it easier to read. The first line is actually one complete command)
display dialog "Click OK to start installing Mac Network Certificate." & return & return & \
"In the following prompts, click the 'Add' then 'Always Trust'." & return & return & \
After you have clicked 'Always Trust', quit Keychain Access." default button 1 with title \
"Mac Network Certificate Install"
activate application "Keychain Access"
tell application "Finder" to open POSIX file "/StartupFiles/bn-virtualcar.crt"
tell application "System Events" to delete login item "Lync-AppleScript"
end
Thank you for your help!

I have run into this same issue. Are you trying to run the script one time as a new user logs in or everytime a user logs in?

Timer - Run .sql Script automatically

How do I setup an .sql script setup in SQL Developer to run automatically as a scheduled task?
thanks

Hello,
welcome to the forum.
SQL Developer is not a tool that can be automated. When you need to execute a script automatically, then you have several options.
- Execute the script via SQL*PLUS, scheduled from OS
- Use the db scheduler to execute a procedure
- Call a OS script from a db job.
For further information about these options go to {forum:id=193}, {forum:id=144} or {forum:id=75}.

How to run .tcl scripts with VTK?

I have a bunch of .tcl scripts that use VTK. How do I run them? I have tcl/tk/vtk installed, but when I try to run `tclsh script.tcl` it outputs errors about VTK. On other distros i saw a binary named `vtk` that could run .tcl scripts out of the box. Is there something like this on Arch?
Thanks.

Hi, vtk is in community. It should supply the tcl bindings. I once was the maintainer when it was in AUR. It works here with the tcl examples that come with the vtk package. Have not tested the version in community yet.

How to run multiple scripts in sql*plus?

I would like to run 2 scripts in sql*plus, how do I do this? I tried the following, but it won't run.
create table student_new
AS
select *
from student
insert into student_new
(last_name, first_name
values
(Crop, Jenny)
The above are the two scripts I want to run, what am I doing wrong.
Thanks

Do you have a solution to run multiple scripts continuosly, one after the other as one script.
Say I have file1.sql file2.sql, file3.sql.
I want to create a script run.sql, where this will run file1.sql,file2.sql,file3.sql one after other without any one running one after the other like follows:
run.sql should have
begin
@file1.sql
@file2.sql
@file3.sql
dbms_output.put_line(select sysdate from dual);
end;
If I run run.sql all the three scripts should be executed successfully and then display the current time . All these files have update statements(50,000 updates each file).
Very urgetn. Can some one hlpe, please.
Thanks in advance.

How to run Open scripts on Mozilla Firefox?

Hi,
My open scripts are working fine on IE7. I want to run same scripts on Firefox 5.0.
Can you please tell me the steps?
Regards,
Deepti

Hi,
Not all the firefox versions are supported. Let me point you to Error while recording with fire fox (4.0) browser. So, you'll end up getting errors like that.
As far as using firefox goes (i.e. once you have the right version),
Go to "View" menu in openscript and under
Openscript>Preferences>General>Browsers select firefox.
Thank you,

How to Run a Report automatically in Background for every night

Hi,
How to run a report program in Background automatically for every nigh.
Thanks
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
You can use SM36 and use the "Job Wizard" to define a background job in simple step by step procedure
Or
Goto SM37 and specify a job name.
Next specify the ABAP Program Name of the report you want to execute under Job Step.
Then click on "Extended Job Selection" and goto the Period Tab.
There select "Only Periodic Jobs" and then specify the frequency of execution based on Months, Weeks, Days, Hours or Minutes.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
