Idsync resync - To populate empty directory!

Hi folks,
I have setup message Q (enterprise edition), Sun Java DS 5.2 patch 4 and ISW 1 2004Q3 as according to the docs on Solaris 10. I do have a AD in operation. I'm trying to sync my DS with AD.
Before starting ISW I read I have to run the idsync resync command to populate my empty DS on Solaris. I have three SULs created when i installed my ISW component. I also try to make use of xml file to amtch the attributes.
But when I run the idsync resync command with the parameters as
./idsync resync -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w bind password -h hostname -q config password -f filename -i ALL_USERS|NEW_LINKED_USERS
It starts by saying validating and refreshing .
Entries sent: 1
Entries that could not belinked: 1
Entries sent: 14
Entries that could not be linked: 14
SUCCESS
But actually no entries are linked. I checked the resync log but there are no related error messages on running the above command. The same is the case by looking into error.log or audit.log files.
Someone kindly advice as its frustrating as not able to populate data.
NOTE: Some additional info--- I have created few containers under people and group which shows as being created by uid=admin
Thanks
casa

I have re-opened this question since the problem appears in ISW 6.0 Solaris version but intermittent in Windows versio.

Idsync resync java error Sun-- NT

Hello there,
We're trying to sync a Sun DS 5.2 with Id Sync for Windows 1 2003Q4 with an NT primary domain controller, and have run into some errors when idsync resync is run for the first time.
# ./idsync resync -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w "ourpassword" -h ldap.ourdomain.edu -p 389 -s "o=ourdomain.org" -q "ourpassword" -o Sun -c

The NT box is running NT4, service pack 6, with Java 1.4.2_05. The Sun end is Solaris 9, DS 5.2.2 with patches for Id sync 2004Q3 installed. We do not have any AD connections with this installation.
Thanks very much,
P.J.

You also need to supply the configuration password using the -q option. Hope this helps.

Idsync resync - list file

Hello,
We have installed DSEE 7.0 & ISW 6.0 on Solaris 10.
Active Directory is running on Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
We have one way syncronization (LDAP -> AD)
I have a flat file with list of users that I want to run "idsync resync" on so that it will create those accounts on AD.
I can run:
/opt/SUNWisw/bin/idsync resync (various other flags here) -a "uid=<account_name>"
The above command successfully creates the account on AD.
Question I have is:
Is there a way I can specify a "list file" in this command?
Any ideas on this will be great!
Thank you,

Hello Marco,
I did try that, and it works, but issue is speed...
After syncing each user, connection between two server closes and it is re-established before processing next user. Here is some info from log file:
"Shutting down the object cache."
"Shutting down the database checkpoint thread."
"The object cache database connection pool has been closed."
"Closing the object cache database environment."
"The object cache database environment has been closed."
"The object cache has been shutdown."
"Starting 4 controller threads"
"About to open the object cache database environment."
"The object cache database environment has been opened."
"When establishing LDAP connections over SSL, the connector will accept any certificate from the LDAP server."
"Established a connection to the Sun Java(TM) System Message Queue Broker as user: with clientID: "
And, it took close to 2-hours to process about 100 users. So, I was looking for a way to specify a file list...
Thank you,

Directory Traversal and Empty Directory Issue. Please Help!

Hi
I am building an application which is aimed at traversing the entire hard disk or a given folder and extract files from the folder, sub-folders and so on. I am able to currently traverse the disk and able to gain access to the files which are nested several layers of directories. The issue I am facing is that when I reach an empty directory, it throws a NullPointerException. I have tried using all kinds of methods like dir.exists() and have also tried to check for whether the number files in the directory is > 0, but the exception is still bugging me. I would require any help I can get.
Here is the code:
public class myFileReader{
    void myRecursiveMethod(File dir) {
        File eachFile;
        File[] files = dir.listFiles();
        for (int i = 0;i < files.length; i++) {
            if (files.isDirectory()) {
if (files[i].list().length > 0) { // I am not sure if this is the right way to go about it. This is one of the ways I tried.
eachFile = (File)files[i];
myRecursiveMethod(eachFile);
System.out.println("Directory: " + eachFile);
} else if (files[i].isFile()) {
System.out.println("Files: " + files[i]);
public static void main(String[]args) throws Exception {
File dir = new File("C://");
myFileReader mfr = new myFileReader();
mfr.myRecursiveMethod(dir);
Hope to get some responses soon.

kajbj wrote:
One line throws the exception, and why aren't you checking what list() returns? It can return null.
and the whole of this
              if (files.list().length > 0) { // I am not sure if this is the right way to go about it. This is one of the ways I tried.
eachFile = (File)files[i];
myRecursiveMethod(eachFile);
System.out.println("Directory: " + eachFile);
} can be replaced by myRecursiveMethod(files[i]);
System.out.println("Directory: " + files[i]);

How to populate active directory users in to drop down list items dynamically in Share point 2010 ?

Hi My self Arun in my current project i have a task on that active directory user need to automatically populate in share point list drop down please help me. is that any out of box feature in share point 2010 ?
Thanking You
Arun

Arun,
If you plan to implement the "Querying the Active Directory" based on my code snippet,
and if you do not have permission [your account must be the part of domain admin] to do so,
Then still you can do it in least effort through code,
string usersInXml = SPContext.Current.Web.AllUsers.Xml;your xml string look like this.
<Users><User ID="2" Sid="" Name="Administrator"
LoginName="i:0#.w|murugesan\administrator" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="True" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /><User ID="1" Sid="" Name="Murugesa Pandian" LoginName="i:0#.w|murugesan\murugesan" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="True" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /><User ID="1073741823" Sid="S-1-0-0" Name="System Account" LoginName="SHAREPOINT\system" Email="" Notes="" IsSiteAdmin="False" IsDomainGroup="False" Flags="0" /></Users>
You can user Linq to XML to filter the "LoginName,Name and Email and then populate your drop down list.
* User must be logged into the site at least once.

How to populate target directory from the source XML in Receiver File Adap?

Hi All,
Our scenario is IDoc - XI -(Receiver File adapter) File. Is it possible to populate complete "Target Directory" from the source XML message??
Lets say we added field to maintain target directory in Idoc structure and some how populated value to it, then grab this target directory from the IDoc-XML and pass in Comunication Channel. I think its possible through Variable Substitation ...just want to make sure and if sombody has done the similar scenario their inputs would be great.

Delete non-empty directory: better solution than traversal?

So far, I'm only able to delete a directory via File.delete() when I delete each single file in this directory and recursively in any subdirectories. I wonder if there is a better/easier way to delete non-empty directories?

Yes, it takes a fraction of a second. To be exact: about 0.3 seconds in our cases for each temporary directory with about 1.5 MB content and less than 100 files.
But during big reports with hundreds of pages, each pages producing several such temp directories, this deletion takes about 5-10 seconds for a full report. Now, we have several customers with several users generating reports all over the place and reducing processing time is of good value. 10 seconds less for reports the user is waiting for might not be a big deal for you but for our customers.
I read in some Linux forums that some file systems just remove the root directory out of some tree structure without recursing the whole tree. That's why deletion is so fast and "real deletion" (to not be able to undelete files) is slow. Unfortunately, we have Windows servers ...

Sapinst generated an empty directory structure when exporting DB

I try to use SAPINST (i.e. db-independent) exporting a DB.
However, even it is done without any error, only an empty folder structure is generated:
folder ABAP ( which is empty)
file: LABELIDX.ASC
I remember about 2 years ago, I had to copy the migration monitor related *.SAR files into the sapinst directory and then
start export_monitor.sh to kick off the background exporting job which generated the export dump. However I cannot find
that document I made then.
Could you help recall?
Thanks!

There are 2 sapinst at SMP for 701.
I have tried the newer one sapinst 701_2.
Please advise.
Thanks!
P.S. This morning I tried 701_1 from scratch. But no dump file generated.

JFileChooser in OS X: Approve Button Disabled In Empty Directory

I have written a simple extended JFileChooser-based 'wizard' to assist in working with sound files in an application. It's a JDialog, which contains a JFileChooser to which is added a file preview (player) accessory. In step 1 you choose a file. In step 2 I reset the current directory to the destination. The user then presses the approve button ad it drops a copy of the selected file into the current directory.
This works OK in Windows, but in OS X the approve button is disabled if nothing is selected in the current directory. If the destination directory is empty there is no way to get the approve button to be enabled. JFileChooser allows you to modify a few properties of the approve button, but hides the button itself. Is there any way to ensure that this button is enabled even if the current directory is empty or nothing is selected?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Hmm... perhaps in step 2 you could setFileSelectionMode(DIRECTORIES_ONLY) and allow the user to choose the directory?

Can I create and empty directory with installer

I have modified a program executable to run on Windows 7 and I have an ini file that I am putting in the ProgramData\<company>\<app name> directory but I do NOT want to include in the installer. It will be created by the software. Within this ini file is a path pointing to another file that will either be C:\Program Files... or C:\Program Files (x86)... depending on whether or not the software is being installed on Windows 7 x64.
So, what I do in software is check if the config file exists (which it wont the first time I run the program ) then check the OS, and create the default the path within that ini file according to the OS I am running on. Then any time the program is run in the future it will load whatever path is there. This gives the user the ability to change it should they want and it will load their changes any subsequent time the program is run. However, in order to do this I want my installer to create the directory structure C:\ProgramData\<company>\<app name> with nothing in it. It seems I can't do this...is there a way to or do I have to just put some empty file in there in order for the directory structure to be created?

Darin.K wrote:
Sounds like a good place to put the "Readme" file that nobody is actually going to read...
I actually laughed out loud at that one. Thanks Darin, I'll go that route. Another option is to just create the default ini file with a tag that is called, say "first time" and have that default value be true. I could check if it's true in the startup state in the software and if it is then set the path accordingly. After this is done, switch the boolean to false and write it back to the file.Then I wouldn't have to write the whole file, just change that one line, and the uninstaller would also get rid of the file if the program was uninstalled (I think). If it was created programmatically I don't believe it will. But, this method would require some software changes to make it compatible with the new tag. So, I guess I just have to pick my poison here.

Why an empty directory take so much space?

Here is the problem:
[kokoko3k@Gozer ~]$ mkdir /tmp/testdir
[kokoko3k@Gozer ~]$ ls -la /tmp/|grep testdir
drwxr-xr-x 2 kokoko3k users 4096 7 feb 12.01 testdir
We have 4K, ok.
[kokoko3k@Gozer ~]$ cd /tmp/testdir/
[kokoko3k@Gozer testdir]$ while true ; do touch $RANDOM ; ls -1 |wc -l ; done

^C
[kokoko3k@Gozer testdir]$ ls -la /tmp/|grep testdir
drwxr-xr-x 2 kokoko3k users 20480 7 feb 12.02 testdir
20K makes sense, it is full of files, but look here:
[kokoko3k@Gozer testdir]$ rm /tmp/testdir/*
[kokoko3k@Gozer testdir]$ ls -la /tmp/|grep testdir
drwxr-xr-x 2 kokoko3k users 20480 7 feb 12.03 testdir
...now the directory is empty and still take so much space, i dropped caches but nothing changes, the only way to free it is to rmdir and mkdir again.
filesystem is ext4 and mount options are: defaults,barrier=0
Is this... normal?

I can clearly "rmdir /tmp/testdir", that means that the directory is empty, or rmdir reports an error, but here it is the log with du, this is on another box:
koko@slimer ~ ls -la /tmp/testdir
ls: cannot access /tmp/testdir: No such file or directory
koko@slimer ~mkdir /tmp/testdir
koko@slimer /tmp/testdir $ sudo du -sh /tmp/testdir

koko@slimer /tmp $ mkdir /tmp/testdir

Still, dir size become bigger when a lot of files are put into it, but never gets smaller, even after deleting all of the files.
Is it a bug?

Seems to be expected...

Autofs creates an empty directory

This is driving me up the wall...
I'm trying to mount a samba share on a file server in a home network.
Mounting it manually works perfectly:
mount -t cifs -o guest //lancelot/shared /mnt
My auto.master looks like this:
/mnt/shared /etc/auto.lancelot --timeout=0
and auto.lancelot like this:
shared -fstype=cifs,guest ://lancelot/shared
Starting autofs and looking at var/log/messages:
Jun 2 23:59:08 galahad automount[4235]: mounted indirect on /mnt/shared
And indeed, a directory /mnt/dir is created. However, it's empty. I've been going through the Arch wiki, Gentoo wiki, a million different howto's, including one with horrible green on black text, and now I'm at the end of my wits. Help would be appreciated.
San

I know it's late but I'm stuck right now at the exact same spot.
Automount mounts but the folder is empty.
Any help appreciated
Thanks
