Invalid path in folder - catalog problem

In Lightroom 4.4 I get the indication in the folder pane of invalid paths. I have accidently deleted some directories outside of Lightroom in an effort to reorganize the structure. Lightroom freezes as soon as I move in the folder pane. I have to use ctr-alt-del to exit Lightroom. Deleting the preferences file does not help because when I open the old catalog the same problem occurs.
I tried looking for the back-up catalog file, but that does not exist. The setting was to backup every time leaving Lightroom, but when the problems started, I renewed the preferences to do the backup once a day. Something did not work out, as it is no longer there. May be it replaces a backup file? I should have checked that.
How can I solve the folder problem???
When I create a new catalog, I assume I will have lost all the corrections and work I did on my files.
Operating system windows 7 - 64 bits - 16 GB RAM Lightroom 4.4 No other applications open.
Thank you.
Jan Minekus

Waiting did not solve the problem, but renaming the topfolder and
restarting Lightroom. Creating a new topfolder and moving an old
subfolder did work!
To be sure I did copy the old folder.
After restarting Lightroom, I had to import the newly copied subfolder.
Everything was allright, except the history was gone, but the metadata,
captions and keywords are still there.
I recreated the first problem folder and could now delete the images
with the wrong path. After that I could remove the folder by
rightclickting.
Now the other problemsubfolders could also be removed.
Problem resolved. I am stil importing subfolders. Thank you very much!

Reporting Services Report Subscription. Invalid path that has spaces within path

I am trying to have subscriptions for reports in this folder: servername\Admissions\REPORTS\End Of Month Reports\Reporting Services Report Subscriptions
It keeps coming back invalid path and its because of the spaces for the foldername. If I send it to the REPORTS folder, I have no problem. How can I fix this for a shared network folder?

Hi jachopich56.
According to your description, you come across an issue when distributing a report to a file share.
In Reporting Services, when we distribute a report to a file share, we must specify an existing folder as a target folder. We should make sure the folder we specify is accessible over a network. When specifying the target folder, we should use UNC format.
In your scenario, please check if you can access the folder with UNC path you specified in the subscription. If issue persists, please check the Reporting Service error log (default location: %programfiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\<SQL Server Instance>\Reporting
Services\LogFiles) around the time that the issue occurs. Please post the detail error log for our analysis if possible.

If you have any question , please feel free to ask.

Business Objects XI 3.1 SP4 Infoview and IE9 HTTP Status 400 - Invalid path

Hi There,
When I working in Infoview with IE9 32Bit or 64Bit and I right click on any object i.e Crystal Report, Folder, Webi Report etc. and select properties I get the following Error
HTTP Status 400 - Invalid path /PlatformServices/properties was requested
Has any one got a workaround or a solution for this problem.
Server - BOE XI 3.1 with SP4 running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 64 bit.
Client PC`s\Laptops - Windows 7 64 bit
Kind Regards,
Frikkie

Dear all,
Seems the issue is browser compatibility ans the below solution may work in your case
HTTP 400 occurs because of URL difference between IE9 and older versions of supported IE. To resolve this issue, this error in Tomcat will be redirected to a HTML script that applies new URL format. Please follow this 3 steps process:
STEP ONE: Solution in InfoViewAppActions Folder:
1) Go to “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewAppActions” folder. This folder already has httperror_404.htm and httperror_500.jsp by default. Rename httperror_404.htm to httperror_404_backup.htm.
2) Copy and paste the attached file from InfoViewAppActions folder (httperror_400.htm and httperror_404.htm) into “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewAppActions” folder. Go to “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewAppActions\WEB-INF”
3) Take a backup of web.xml file and name it as web_backup.xml
4) Open the file and paste the following script after the Error 404 error handling and save.
Before:
<error-page>
        <error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/httperror_404.htm</location>
    </error-page>
After:
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/httperror_404.htm</location>
    </error-page>
    <error-page>
<error-code>400</error-code>
<location>/httperror_400.htm</location>
    </error-page>
STEP TWO: Solution in AnalyticalReporting Folder:
1) Go to “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\ AnalyticalReporting” folder. This folder already has httperror_404.htm and httperror_500.jsp by default. Rename httperror_404.htm to httperror_404_backup.htm.
2) Copy and paste the attached file from AnalyticalReporting folder (httperror_400.htm and httperror_404.htm) into “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\ AnalyticalReporting” folder. Go to “D:\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\ AnalyticalReporting \WEB-INF”
3) Take a backup of web.xml file and name it as web_backup.xml
4) Open the file and paste the following script after the Error 404 error handling and save.
Before:
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/httperror_404.htm</location>
    </error-page>
After:
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/httperror_404.htm</location>
    </error-page>
    <error-page>
<error-code>400</error-code>
<location>/httperror_400.htm</location>
    </error-page>

Invalid path to word templates

Hello,
I am trying to export delivery note to word, but no way. It appears the following message:
"Invalid path to word templates"
I have checked under administration that the path set there is correct and the macros are with low security level.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
If you have checked the administration --> general settings --> path, you could also check if the folder still exists and allowable to use by user. btw, what version of SBO you are using ?

Invalid Path for target file, check if connector is deployed correctly

Hi all,
I've got a tricky problem over here: we are using OMB scripts for generating simple extract mappings that just copy data from an oracle source table to a flat file on a directory. Up untill now ( with version 11.1 ) this did not pose any troubles, but now we are using 11.2 for the first time and we don't get the mappings to execute. Generating, validating and deploying all works fine, only executing fails with the error: "Invalid Path for target file, check if connector is deployed correctly". It ends to rapidly, so I'm assuming the problem lies in the repository and not on the database itself.
I'm pretty sure all locations are defined as needed, flat file operator in the mapping has correct location, the flat file module has the same location,...
I tried almost everything: recreate oracle module, recreate flat file module, unregister and recreate db location, unregister and recreate dir location, recreate mapping and flat file, export/import...
The strange thing is, I was able to execute a mapping once. Although it ended with an error (due to a function in the mapping), it created the file correctly. After that I needed to update the directory path of the target location and from then on, I always got the error above, and I don't see a good reason.
Any suggestions??
Tnx,
Michel

That error is displayed when the generated code fails to execute with one of the following database errors;
UTL_FILE.INVALID_PATH
UTL_FILE.INVALID_OPERATION
UTL_FILE.INVALID_FILEHANDLE
So its worth checking the generated code for that map and searching for the code around UTL_FILE.FOPEN and seeing what the path and the file name in the code are. Maybe the file is created with permissions such that it can be created but not then re-written and its an OS permissions thing (such as UMASK settings).
Cheers
David

Are all of your pages that are linked to this on the same directory level?
The ../../ in front of every link means "go up two directory levels". If there are no pages, or if some of the pages are not at that directory level, the links would be going to nothing.
I don't use library items myself, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, but the "bad path" in your error report leads me to think some of those paths (since they're the only ones in the code) could be pointing to the wrong locations.
My response will also bump your question back to the top of the pile. Maybe someone else will have a good idea of what's actually happening.

PL/SQL : Error: invalid path ORA-29280

I'm trying to get this work but what can I do ? does anybody know how to resolv this problem
code : (for the exemple)
DECLARE
     fich     UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
BEGIN
     fich := UTL_FILE.FOPEN('e:\','test.lst','W');
     UTL_FILE.PUT(fich,'something');
     UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(fich);
EXCEPTION
     WHEN utl_file.invalid_path THEN
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error: invalid path ' || SQLERRM);
          UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(fich);
     WHEN utl_file.write_error THEN
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Error: write error ' || SQLERRM);
          UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(fich);
     WHEN others then
          DBMS_output.put_line('other error : '||SQLERRM);
          UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(fich);
END;
Always return :
ERROR at ligne 1 :
ORA-29280: invalid path
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 18
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 424
ORA-06512: at line 4
If someone can tell me where's the fault. thanks in advance

Also note, that directories you want to have access to should be listed in UTL_FILE_DIR server parameter (you edit it in your init.ora and restart the server for changes to take effect.) Setting it to * (everything everywhere) is NOT recommended as it opens whole file system for access and may lead to security problems.

Invalid path for Microsoft Word

I had set a path for Microsoft Word as below c:
serverip\B1_SHR\WordDocs\English, but I still get the "invalid path error".
Please advice

Hi,
I have set the path like this following and nothing happened:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\WordDocs\English\
but when I try to use the path like you are using:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\B1_SHR\WordDocs\
I've got the same error message with you.
So, one of the solution is to avoid using the folder B1_SHR. The path should be used different since every users will not probably export their file in one folder.
Although you find that there is excldocs folder in the B1_SHR and you success to export to excel , it won't be available there but it will available in this path:
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\ExclDocs\

Datechkw window - odbcinst.cnt contains an invalid path

HI !
I've already installed oracle client 8.0.5 in several nt4 workstations with a cd reader and everything went ok.
Now I want to install it in workstations without cd reader.
I tried 2 things: access through a network share to another cd drive, and the other thing was to copy the entire cd contents
to my nt4 server and that shared it with full control to everyone.
One way or the other, when I start to install the client, I always get the error "my_server\my_share\win32\odbc32\ODBCINST.CNT contains an invalid path", in a window wich title is "datechkw".
What is the problem here ? Am i executing the wrong files, or will I have to edit that odbcinst.cnt file ?
Any help apreciated.
Thanks.

For OA Pages, the way help is rendered is this
1. Developers use a help target attribute and give a specific name for a specific page
2. Doc team uses this help tag in the help pages they build
3. The help doc is uploaded into fnd_lobs by the patch using FNDGFU program
4. When help is launched, fndhelp.jsp (in $OA_HTML) is used and the help target from the page is passed as a url parameter
5. fndhelp.jsp then looks up the doc in the database (fnd_lobs) with the help of fnd_help_targets and fnd_help_documents tables.
So if you want custom help to be rendered instead of seeded oracle help, please try uploading the help doc in the database (use FNDGFU) and then change the help targets in the related tables mentioned above.
Thanks

Invalid Path error - Please Help !

I'm trying to setup a golden triangle with OS X 10.5.2 server, Windows 2003 AD and PPC/Intel clients running 10.4.11.
Their is no problem on the AD side - clients register in AD ok, network accounts log in, server is joined as well.
DNS - ping, changeip -checkhostname, lookups all work fine. DNS is hosted by Windows AD server. This LAN is not connected to the internet.
*I've joined clients to OD using the IP address or the name (polk.nwts.nara), they've authenticated OK when binding (set as required), but do not get their managed preferences.*
On the OD side, I created a group, set the preferences, and added the just joined workstation to the group. I rebooted the client, but none of the preferences showed up.
I opened a terminal window and did the following:
dscl localhost
ls
+this listed the directories+
cd LDAPv3
ls
+this listed my OD server+
cd myODserver
cd: *Invalid Path*
Starting Directory Access on the client, when I go to Search & Mappings and select a Record Type and Attribute, the search base is the same as on the server - cn=(record type), dc=polk,dc=nwts,dc=nara
Soooo - what am I missing? I believe this error is indicative of why the clients aren't getting their settings, but can't figure out where the problem is. BTW, I can start Workgroup Manager from a client and access OD.
Quick addenda:
Setup mac server using "advanced"
Joined it to AD domain, rebooted.
Made it an OD Master. Rebooted.
Kerberos is not started, have not added any records.
Created group and set managed preferences for this group.
Added clients by binding them to OD server. Added client to group.
Rebooted client.
Client authentication/contacts is AD first, then OD.

Assuming that you are on Windows, most likely your registry is pointing to an invalid 'My Documents' location.
See if this can fix it: https://fixitcenter.support.microsoft.com/

Unable To Open Saved WI Reports in IE 9-Receive Invalid Path Error

I am unable to open any saved web intelligence report documents in Internet Explorer 9. When I select view or modify, the java report panel does not initiate but instead gives me an error stating "Invalid path /AnalyticalReporting/WebiView was requested". Everything works fine if I use Firefox 9. Is it a setting I need to change in internet explorer somewhere or is it a compaitibility issue?
I can create new web intelligence queries and reports in IE 9, but if I try to open a report that I saved, I get an error.

Hello,
If you are using the older version of BOXI in that case IE 9 is not supported. Please check your Boxi version which supports IE 9 or not.
Thanks,
