Input file

How do you tell Java where the input file resides so it may be read?

File f = new File("C:\\dir\\file.ext");
Doesn't that work?

I am currently attempting to write a program to help me move away from my illiteracy in Mandrin. So, that's my code, and i am using Dr.Java while writing it. When i tested it out the output looked something like this v

My input file is saved in Unicode. It contains letters that cannot be saved in ANSI. I tried UTF-8, but the interactions section showed no output...
Is this just a problem with Dr.Java? Will i encounter a similar problem when i turn this into a GUI?
The following is a copy and pasted version of the txt file i used as input. It is saved in the Unicode format.

Sorry, but i do not understand this post at all... Can anyone explain it to me? Is he saying my IDE is running on something other than Unicode?
PS: I tried one of the Scanner constructors that takes a charset parameter. That fixed the odd output! However, every Chinese character has been replaced with a question mark. (It was a series of weird characters before i used the constructor with a charset parameter.)

Need Help-SOA 11g File Adapter unable to delete input file and its crashing

Hi All
Please find the details below:
1. We have created a simple SOA composite to Read file from an input directory, archive the file in an archive directory using Inbound File Adapter Read
and then use Outbound File Adapter Write to move the file to a output directory.
2. File Adapter needs to delete the file after successful read/retrieval.
3. We are using the "Use Trigger File" for invoking the file adapter. This is a new feature in SOA 11g
4. Also we are using the option of reading the file as an attachment as we are not doing any transformation in the composite
Issue Details_
1. When the trigger file is put in the input directory for the first time, the File Adapter reads the file, archives it and moves it to the output directory
2. However it does not delete the input file from the input directory and raises Fatal Exception mentioned below:
[*2011-01-12T16:55:48.639+05:30] [soa_server1] [WARNING] [] [oracle.soa.adapter] [tid: weblogic.work.j2ee.J2EEWorkManager$WorkWithListener@19c243d]*

Hi,
Using the file adapter, you can poll from multilple locations...
Keep the following property in your .jca file
<property name="DirectorySeparator" value="," />
While giving the path in File Adapter configuration, keep comma and give the next location....then the file will be picked up from the locations you gave....
Hope this helps...

How to count Number of Input files onTarget Location?

so say at one instance there are 7 files and XI picks them up, your BPM collects it and when you send it to R3 you need to know how many files have been processed?
Well if this is the case, modify your BPM to accommodate collect pattern based on time. So fix a time period basically a time out say an hour. So the BPM will run for an hour after it receives the first file in and if within an hour say 7 files have come in, once the time out kicks in the BPM will exit. In you mapping of N:1 inside the bpm you can write a UDF which will count the occurrance of the root node of the source (a mandatory node of the source) and populate it to any field in the target tht you want to use.
Is this what you are looking for?

How to execute an SSIS package on a scheduled basis from remote server and pass in input files

I have an application server and a db server. My db server has all things SQL Server stored on it (DBMS, SSRS, SSIS, etc.) I have several nightly batch process SSIS packages (dtsx files currently) that will pickup an input file and import them
into the database. I would like to execute all batch processes from my application server as I have quite a few other ones as well that do other stuff outside of SQL Server via powershell. My question is how to do this? Is there away to execute
them remotely via DTexec.exe, should I set them up as Agent jobs and somehow pass in the file names\location (how?), create and SSIS catalog, etc.?
I need to easily be able to see if the packages execute successfully or not and if not capture the detailed information of why they failed from the remote server so I can use that to drive my process flow logic in the batch processes.

Hi Jason,
According to your description, you want to execute a package on a schedule and receive notification when package ends with error in the job.
After testing the issue in my environment, we can directly add the package in a step of a job, then add a schedule and set the Alert and Notification property in the job to achieve your requirement. For more details, please see:
Create a Database Mail in the SSMS.
Right-click the SQL Server Agent services to Enable mail profile, then select the appropriate Mail profile.
Under the Operators folder, create an operator with the correct E-mail name.
Right-click the Jobs folder to add a new job.
In the Steps pane, New a step with SQL Server Integration Services Package Type to run the package.
In the Schedules pane, New a schedule for the job.
In the Alerts pane, New an alert with SQL Server event alert, then enable Notify operators option with an operator in the Response pane.
In the Notifications pane, enable Email option with same operator and When the job fails selection.
Then when the package fails, the job would be failed and we can receive the error message in the mailbox.
Besides, please make sure the account that execute the job has correct permissions for the file, for the folder that contains the file, and for the database.

Background job not responding to input file

Hi all,
I have created a program which takes one input file . The user gives the path for the file .
Now the program runs fine in foreground, but it throws the error 'FILE_READ_ERROR' while run in background .
Any pointers to this ?!

Help needed on Transforming input File to EDI Format

I have an input flat file in one location. Using BizTalk, i need to pick that file from that Recieve location, transform it to EDI format and send it to Destination location.
Now, when I place input file in the "Recieve location", it is being processed and it is erased from recieve location. But I am not able to see the output in the Destination location.
And when i query it in BizTalk Administration console, the state is "Completed" without any errors.
Any guidance/suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have just collated everything and have put it in my words below..Please
let me know your valuable inputs as I am struck in this point from more than a week.
I need to fetch an input flat file (.txt format) from the "Receive location" and I am supposed to transform that to an EDI message X12 format and send it to Destination folder.
I have set up the receive port and send port configurations in the Admin Console, have created the Trading Partners, agreement and other settings.
The problem I am facing : Now, when I place input file in the "Receive location", it is being processed and I am able to pick up the file from the input folder
but I am not able to figure out why the file is not being processed and sent to the destination folder.. (If I query for All In Progress instances, suspended instances or Running instances : I am not getting any results and the below grid is always empty).
And when i query it in Biz-talk Administration console for Tracked instances, the Receive pipeline component's state is "Completed" without any errors.
And I am not using any Orchestration in between..
Thank you all in advance....

Getting No input file specified. in php with index.php

I just installed on a server (soalris10/u6 sparc) Web Server 7.0u4 (upgraded from u3), and I am now getting "No input file specified." for any php doc root, I now have to type the full path to get the main page.
I am using the php part of the Sun coolstack 1.3.1 and it used to work fine with web server 7.0 u3, but now after the upgrade its not loading index.php
for example I am going to http://server.domain.com/wiki used to work by loading index.php, but now I have to type the full index... http://server.domain.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
Any help is appreciated.

If you're not currently using a php.ini, you can pass the parameter to PHP via your FastCGI configuration. Something like:
Service fn=responder-fastcgi
        app-path="/export/WS7/third-party/php/php_fcgi"
        bind-path="$(lc($urlhost))"
        req-retry=5
        type="*magnus-internal/fastcgi*"
        app-env="PHPRC=/export/WS7/fooBaz/config"Now place a file called php.ini in /export/WS7/fooBaz/config and make sure that the UID Web Server is running as has permission to read it.
Common syntax is KEY = Value. An example would be:
cgi.fix_pathinfo = Off
session.bug_compat_42 = Off
session.bug_compat_warn = Off
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 128M
upload_max_filesize = 128M
fastcgi.logging = true

Can I find out the full filename of input file in message mapping?

I have in XI 2.0 the following scenario :
In the inbound fileadapter I read my input file. The filename of the input file is part fixed, part variable (Like INDATA01.txt, INDATA03.txt, etc).
So in my Adapterconfiguration, I specify the filename with a wildcard (INDATA*.txt).
What I now want to do, is in my Message Mapping use the full filename , so I can do something different for every filenumber. Is there a way where I can get the full filename available in my message mapping (I did not find the filename in the XML in the message trace).

You're backing up hundreds or thousands of files: There's the catalog (database) itself and also the media files.
In PSE10, when doing a backup, PSE displays the size of the backup before you begin the actual backup:
I assume PSE8 will have something similar.

Camera Raw Policy of Writing Back into Input Files

This came up in another thread, and I think it deserves its own discussion. I'd hope that we can influence the Camera Raw team's future direction. I welcome your input and opinions.
Given: Under some conditions Camera Raw writes data back into (overwrites) its input files.
Assuming you use Camera Raw to open your out-of-camera original files as many of us do, Adobe seems to be all over the road on whether to keep its hands off them or overwrite them...
Camera Raw will not touch a proprietary raw file, such as a Canon .CR2 or Nikon .NEF. There's a whole process for remembering settings in a separate database or sidecar XMP files. So far so good.
If you open a JPEG, TIFF, or DNG through Camera Raw, data WILL automatically be written back into it to tell another run of Camera Raw in the future what settings you used - without the software ever having warned you it will do so.
Some functions EXPLICITLY rewrite input files. You can ask the software to write new thumbnails back into DNG files, for example. This is fine - the user has instructed the software to overwrite the file, and the user is in charge, after all.
Overwriting/rewriting an input file without being instructed to do so is NON-INTUITIVE BEHAVIOR for an application. No one would expect an input file to be overwritten.
We do see that it causes people confusion. I'm sure there are people right now reading this in disbelief. I recommend you go test it for yourself (on a copy of one of your original files).
The original file being overwritten is one of the reasons why I don't configure Photoshop to open my out-of-camera JPEGs through Camera Raw.
Adobe's [mis]handling of input files on the surface seems to be derived from the history of DNG - where no camera actually writes the DNG file directly but it has been generated as an intermediate format through the DNG Converter, and as such can be handled with less "care" than an original camera file.
It seems to me that Camera Raw should NEVER write back into an INPUT file it is opening without a) letting the user know or b) being directed to do so.
Adobe:
Please give those of us who don't want our input files overwritten an option for using the database/XMP sidecar instead in EVERY case.
Thanks.
-Noel

It depends.
As far as I can tell:
When a JPG or TIF file is Locked,
Camera Raw > Done results in a Write Permission Error.
When a DNG file is Locked,
Camera Raw > Done - writes a separate xmp sidecar file.
The JPG / TIF handling seems to me inconsistent. With a locked file I'd prefer to have a sidecar xmp created as well. Some of my JPG / TIF files are originals for me.

The file size of selected file in input file control is shown as 0 for multiple file selection in Safari 5.1

The file size of selected file in input file control is shown as 0 for multiple file selection in Safari 5.1. If you select single file, then it is able to return file size correctly. However, if you select multiple files, then the file size of each of the selected file is always returned as 0 from javascript. This works correctly in Safari 4.0 but it does not work in Safari 5.1.
How do I get the correct file size in Safari 5.1 ?

If you want to post (or send me) a link to the lrcat file, I'd take a look at it for you, and give you a break-down what's consuming all the bytes. But it might be fun to learn how to do that yourself (e.g. using SQL). I use SQLiteSpy, but other people have their favorites.. (or you can use a command-line client if you prefer..). One way: just run "drop table "{table-name}" on each table then look at filesize (do this to a copy, not the real thing).
Anyway, it's hard to imagine keywords and captions etc. taking much of the space, since even if you had 1000 10-character words of text metadata per photo average that still only adds up to 117MB, which isn't a substantial portion of that 8G you're seeing occupied.
Anyway, if you've painted the heck out of most of them and not cleared dev history, that'll do it - that's where I'd put my money too...
One thing to consider to keep file-size down:
===================================
* After reaching a milestone in your editing, take a snapshot then clear edit history, or the top part of it anyway (e.g. leave the import step), using a preset like:
Clear Edit History.lrtemplate
s = {
    id = "E36E8CB3-B52B-41AC-8FA9-1989FAFD5223",
    internalName = "No Edit",
    title = "Clear Edit History",
    type = "Develop",
    value = {
        settings = {
            NoEdit = true,
        uuid = "34402820-B470-4D5B-9369-0502F2176B7F",
    version = 0,
(that's my most frequently used preset, by far ;-})
PS - I've written a plugin called DevHistoryEditor, which can auto-consolidate steps and reduce catalog size - it's a bit cumbersome to use a.t.m. but in case you're interested...

Need some Help ( formating strings vs formatting input files)

I have a program that reads in a text file and stores each line as a string. The input file has no delimiters and varying amounts of white space. The problem is, I am trying to display each line of the file the same way. Here is an example of what the string looks like when I read it in and then output the strings.
(I am using the underline to represent white space just in this message post.)
1.Fred Smith____GA_____23_______42______23.5_____3____5
2.Jon Doe____SC___42_______3_______39.2_____6_____12
Now here is is how I would like the output to look like.
1.Fred Smith_______GA_______23_____42_____23.5_____3_____5
2.Jon Doe__________SC_______42_____33_____39.2_____6_____12
Any thoughts or insight on how to achieve this would be great. Thanks for the time.

Hi, before I'd do anything more complicated, I'd replace some spaces with tabs and see if that does the trick.
Cheers, HJK

Input file should be deleted only after the output file is successful.

Hi Experts,
Could you pleas solve the below issue.
In a file to file scenario, the input file will be picked from a directory location and after processing output file will be placed in the output directory location specified in the receiver communication channel.
In the sender communication channel for the scenario mentioned above, if the processing mode is given as delete, the input file will be delete as soon as the file was successfully read by the adapter, but this will not ensure that the file processing is complete and the output file is being created.
If we have a scenario in such as way that the input file should be deleted from the input folder only if the complete process is successful and the output is generated. how can we achieve this functionality?.
And one more thing if we got the successful output the output file should be placed in one folder. and the if the output file is having errors it should be placed in other folder.

Hi,
In Receiver communication channel I have used the below command in Run Operating System
.And I have kept the processing mode of sender communication channel as test.
cmd.exe: /C "del /Leela/test.xml"
You are running the comman line program configured in the receiver File Adapter,but in command line you mentioned the Sender File Folder , So i guess it's not getting processed.
Try this:
Try to run the command line in the Sender File Adapter Side
"Place this in " --> Run OS Command After Message Processing.
Hope this would work and get in parrallel with u r requirement.
regards

How to find number of lines in an input file.

Hi,
Can someone tell me, if there is a way to find out the number of lines in an input file. I do not want to read line by line and then count the number of lines read.

Then how do you think a program could determine the amount of lines in an input file? How does a human know how many lines are on a page? You're going to have to count the items that separate two lines to know how many lines are in your file.
Either read line by line and count the amount or read char by char and count the number of '\n' occurences instead.
If you have control over writing the input files, however, you can make this better. Write a header in the file that specifies the amount of lines in it. The first line of your file will then hold a number that represents the amount of lines in the file, so you need only read the first line to know how many lines are in your file.
