Invalid Parent Path in Archive

Secure Access V2.0 returned an error when I tried to open my vault. After I type in the password I get the error message, "Invalid Parent Path In Archive".  When I click 'OK' I get the standard "4 Ways To Protect Your Data" screen as usual when I open a vault. When I click the 'Next" button I get the error, "This vault could not be loaded, it may be located on another computer or the original vault file has been manually removed." After I click OK the main screen opens. It has the vault listed, but if I click on it I get the same error message.  Whats going on? How can I access my vault? It is my backup for important documents and archives. No, I haven't moved or deleted the vault. The vault is located on the memory stick.I only work from one computer running Windows 7. This particular Sandisk 32 Extreme is never used with any other computer. I haven't changed the password. Everything was working fine until I just couldn't sign in.

Hello, There are some steps you can try in order to recover the vault files . 1) copy the vault and secure access application from the write protected drive over to the new drive2) run secure access on the new drive3) when it prompts to create a new vault go ahead and create a new vault with the exact same password as the old vault4) encrypt any file in the new vault (this will generate two new system files)5) close secure access6) open the vault folder on the new drive via windows explorer, navigate to the system files folder, you should see several files, among them are two sets of "USB Flash Drive-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.idx and .bak files7) Looking at the date stamps of the files, 2 will be older and 2 will be newer (you can also check on the old write protected drive to confirm the names of the older files, the older files contain the encryption information needed however the file name is associated with the previous drive we will need to rename the old files)8) copy the 2 newer files and paste them into any temporary location outside of the flash drive (i.e.. desktop)8) once you've copied the two new files to a temporary location delete the originals from the system files folder on the flash drive.9) go to the temporary location and copy only the file name from the .idx file (the file name, not the file itself)10) go to the vault / system files and rename the old .idx file with the name you copied from the new .idx file11) repeat the same for the idx.bak file12) now you should have renamed the old .idx and .idx.bak files with the names of the newly generated system files.

    You'll need to create an Oracle Directory object that contains 'C:\SQL' and use that in your UTL_FILE call if you are using a 10g+ version of the database and the UTL_FILE_DIR parameter does not include your path.
    CREATE DIRECTORY my_dir AS 'C:\SQL';
    GRANT READ WRITE ON DIRECTORY my_dir TO <user>;You can then use the directory object name in the path of your UTL_FILE call.
    ORA-29280: invalid directory path Cause: A corresponding directory object does not exist.
    Action: Correct the directory object parameter, or create a corresponding directory object with the CREATE DIRECTORY command.>

  • Invalid Application Path

    Hello,
    While creating a new FDM application I am currently recieving a message that states that the application path is invalid.
    Path statement currently being used_
    \\SeverName\D$\Hyperion\products\FinancialDataQualityData\AppName
    Can someone please shed some light on this issue?
    Thank you!

    The folder "AppName" likely does not exist. Remove that. When creating a new app, FDM will create the "AppName" folder natively.

  • What to do if host wont allow "Enable Parent Paths"?

    Apart from moving host! :o)
    We just moved a site to WebFusion who don't have "Enable
    Parent Paths"
    enabled in the IIS on their Windows servers, nor will they
    allow it.
    Therefore, all of the include file references on the site, to
    files that are
    in a different directory:
    Connections/connNAME.asp
    ...aren't working, producing the following error:
    Server.MapPath() error 'ASP 0175 : 80004005'
    Disallowed Path Characters
    /index.asp, line 2
    The '..' characters are not allowed in the Path parameter for
    the MapPath
    method.
    Line 2 is:
    <!--#include file="../connNAME.asp" -->
    Is there a workaround? WebFusion mentioned something about
    Server.MapPath("..") but I'm not sure how to replace my
    Include file with
    this?
    My major issue is that we have InterAkt extensions on the
    site and these use
    extensive reference to include files in a parent directories
    so WebFusion
    has rendered the InterAkt extensions useless because of the
    refusal to allow
    "Enable Parent Paths".
    Hope someone can help.
    Thanks
    Nath.

    Change the above (assuming connNAME.asp is in the root
    directory) to:
    <!--#include virtual="/connNAME.asp" -->
    If the file is not in the root directory, adjust as
    necessary.

  • ZDM Agent "Invalid Drive Path"

    We use Zenworks to install software and use the Zenworks folders to display the program shortcut icon. After installed, it will launch (Run options tab > Application > Path to file) and the program will start. I'm having an issue for the last couple weeks that some users are seeing:
    0xD001
    Could not get needed resources for application [application name] to be launched (id=number).
    Problem: Invalid drive path [specified drive path]
    The same NAL app is working fine for other users. I have confirmed on the faulty pc that the program will run manually and through a Windows shortcut link. The only thing I have noticed is the users that its failing on has ZDM 6.5 agent. If I upgrade them to ZDM 7, its fixed!
    Apparently there is alot of pc's which still have ZDM 6.5 but I'm only hearing a few complaints. I know a fix is to upgrade to ZDM 7 but we have a conflicting issue if they have the ZCM inventory agent, the upgrade will kill DLU policy.
    Any ideas to discover why this is happening all of a sudden and possible fix?

    You could try having the App launch your program from the "Launch
    Script" instead of "Path to File".
    This helped with some issues I had years ago.
    (Might have been ZEN2 .........)
    Maybe Try Killing the NALCache Folder on those devices?

  • Import-CMDriver fails with "Import-CMDriver : Invalid object path "

    I am attempting to use Import-CMDriver but it fails with:
    "Import-CMDriver : Invalid object path "
    I can see that it is adding the driver to the catalog, but it is failing to add it to the package and I can't figure out why.  I have tried with different inf files and deleted and created different packages.  It just doesn't work.  Here is
    the command that I am running.  I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.
     Set-Location abc:
        foreach($iniFile in $infFilesToDeploy){
            $cmDrivePackage = Get-CMDriverPackage -Name "PackageName"
            $cmDriverCat = Get-CMCategory -CategoryType "DriverCategories" -Name "PackageName"

    As I said, it is seeing the ini file since it it importing it into the catalog.  It just won't add it to the package.  It also leaves the package in a locked state if I try to modify it after I run this command.
    Anyone have any ideas why this command doesn't function?
    Thank you for your time.

  • How do I enable parent paths in Visual Studio 2013?

    I am converting a classic ASP site to a Visual Studio 2013 MVC. When I run the ASP code inside of the Visual Studio 2013 debugger I get the following error message. How can I enable parent paths in 2013? 
    Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0131'
    Disallowed Parent Path
    /prospect/contact/contact_search.asp, line 33
    The Include file '../menu_inc/contacts.inc' cannot contain '..' to indicate the parent directory.
    

    I discovered the answer myself.  Here is how I did it.
    I opened Task Manager and saw that Visual Studio was running processes of IISExpress for the web server functionality.
    I clicked on Start and entered IISExpress to find out where it was installed. To my surprise, but an obvious choice, it was located in documents.
    I opened the C:\Users\Mike\Documents\IISExpress\config folder then opened Notepad as an administrator.  I then opened the applicationhost.config file and under the <system.webServer> element there is an <asp> element. I modified it
    to read. <asp scriptErrorSentToBrowser="true" enableParentPaths="true">
    I then opened by MVC solution and ran the Classic ASP program without any problems.  Everything works!

  • Get parent path

    How do i get the parent path of my java applicaiton?
    I see something called getRealPath() but that's for servlets.

    Your Java application doesn't have a "parent path". There's no such thing. The concept is especially nonsensical if the application is in an executable jar file.
    When you execute a program (including a Java application), that process has a current working directory. The current working directory may be the one where your Java class is stored, or it may not. If you can't work with paths that are relative to the current working directory, because you haven't controlled it properly, then you'll have to work with full paths.

  • Invalid Directory Path

    Hi,
    When I execute a procedure as shown below i use to get an error as
    <b> "invalid directory path"</b>
    exec emp_details('c:\emp\test.txt',100);
    The first parameter is the the path where file is stored and the other parameter is the emp code.
    After executing the procedure the error message is,
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-29280: invalid directory path
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 18
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 424
    ORA-06512: at "emp_details", line 34
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    but actually the file is located in the mentioned path but still the error occurs.
    Please help me in this regard.

    Hello
    Did you create a directory object or are you relying on utl_file_dir?
    You may need to upper case the path if you are using a directory object (I think). Also, utl_file.f_open takes in the path AND the file name, not just the file name on it's own. Are you correctly splitting the file name from the path?
    It might help if you can show the relevant parts of the procedure that are failing.

    The correct thing to do is to create a directory object e.g.:
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY mydir AS 'c:\myfiles';Note: This does not create the directory on the file system. You have to do that yourself and ensure that oracle has permission to read/write to that file system directory.
    Then, grant permission to the users who require access e.g....
    GRANT READ,WRITE ON DIRECTORY mydir TO myuser;Then use that directory object inside your FOPEN statement e.g.
    fh := UTL_FILE.FOPEN('MYDIR', 'myfile.txt', 'r');Note: You MUST specify the directory object name in quotes and in UPPER case for this to work as it is a string that is referring to a database object name which will have been stored in uppercase by default.
    p.s. as already mentioned by others, this directory must be on your Oracle database server. You can only access client directories if the server itself has a mapping to the client machine itself. Don't expect to provide a path and for the process to access the local client machine of whoever uses it.
