'log' file in user folder

I just opened my "User" folder in the finder and noticed there is a random file in there named 'log'.
When i open it in textedit, there is just one line of text: "cp_plugin_dir:/Users/Mitchell/Library/Internet Plug-Ins"
What is this file and is it safe to delete?
Thanks

I don't know what caused it but it only a (misplaced) log file so you can safely delete it. Of course whatever caused it (a poorly written internet plugin installer?) may create it again so the mystery of the cause remains. Keep an eye out for it and maybe you can associate some action you do with its reappearance.

Log files in DB folder

Hello!
Does anyone know if it is necessary to keep all of the .log files in the \zenworks\inv\db folder? There are numerous .log files, created daily, from the very first day that we installed the database on the server (over 2 years ago). Each file is 128k in size. It would be nice if we could delete some or most of them to free up the disk space being used.
Thanks!
Larry

Cannot find config.js file in user folder

Dear All,
I could not find config.js in user java script folder.
I used app.getPath("user", "javascript"); function to find the user folder and it contains glob.js and glob.settings.js file.
Where should i find Config.js file to execute priviledged methods in a non-privilaged context.
Thanks for all.
Mohamed Idris

Thanks a lot, That has worked. I was thinking that config.js will come with default setup loaded with setup information.

Spotlight won't find files in user folder

i have spoken to apple tech support on this and they continue to try to find a solution but.....
i have files that spotlight doesn't find. they are in my user folder. in fact, it won't find the folder (s) one is on my desktop, one in documents. (these are just the ones i've tested). when i take the folder and just put it on the hard drive (root level), spotlight finds it. also, apparently, it can be found when i put it in the user folder of another user. i would like to avoid reinstalling the system. any thoughts??

Where can I find log files for users logging into network homes?

We're running an open directory master and are using AFP on another server to host our network homes. I was asked to find a log of users logged into their network homes on a specific date and I'm starting to wonder if that's actually a log that exists. I've checked the OD logs and in one of the password logs I can see users have authenticated but it doesn't say specifically to what (so it just lists they logged into something). The AFP logs just show specific files being accessed without usernames. So what am I missing? What log would I check?
Thanks for your help!!

File Zilla is a dedicated ftp client that you use to upload your published web site to your server.
I would suggest that you perhaps consider using Cyberduck instead as this might be easier. Cyberduck is a dedicated ftp client in the same way that File Zilla is.
To be able to upload what you need is your published website. Open iWeb and select the site that you want to publish and then select publish to a local folder and your site will then be published to your desktop. You then upload this to your server using Cyberduck or File Zilla.

Library File in User Folder Invisible?

Is there a way to change this folder to being visible? I turned off invisible files, and it showed up, then made an alias for it so I can still access with invisible files turned on, but is there a way to change the default of this folder to being visible? I'm running Lion btw.

It helps to deter users who don't know what they are doing from poking around where they should not be.
I'm curious about something. Was my reply inferior to Sjazbec's? I ask because you awarded him a Correct Answer while mine was only Helpful. But they are both the same, essentially, except that mine requires less typing and you don't even need to know your username.

32GB "null" file in User folder- what is it?

I decided to see what was using the majority of my disk to free some space, and found this. Can it be deleted?

That file belongs in the system /bin folder. If you have a copy of it in your home folder, you can delete it, at least as far as the system is concerned. Don't delete the original or anything else in /bin.

Script to search all files in specified folder for multiple string text values listed in a source file and output each match to one single results txt file

I have been searching high and low for this one. I have a vbscript that can successfully perform the function if one file is listed. It does a Wscript.echo on the results and if I run this via command using cscript, I can output to a text file
that way. However, I cannot seem to get it to work properly if I want it to search ALL the files in the folder. At one point, I was able to have it create the output file and appear as if it worked, but it never showed any results when the script
was executed and folder was scanned. So I am going back to the drawing board and starting from the beginning.
I also have a txt file that contains the list of string text entries I would like it to search for. Just for testing, I placed 4 lines of sample text and one single matching text in various target files and nothing comes back. The current script
I use for each file has been executed with a few hundred string text lines I want it to search against to well over one thousand. It might take awhile, but it works every time. The purpose is to let this run against various log files in a folder and
let it search. There is no deleting, moving, changing of either the target folder/files to run against, nor of the file that contains the strings to search for. It is a search (read) only function, going thru the entire contents of the folder and
when done, performs the loop function and onto the next file to repeat the process until all files are searched. When completed, instead of running a cscript to execute the script and outputting the results to text, I am trying to create that as part
of the overall script. Saving yet another step for me to do.
My current script is set to append to the same results file and will echo [name of file I am searching]: No errors found. Otherwise, the
output shows the filename and the string text that matched. Because the results append to it, I can only run the script against each file separately or create individual output names. I would rather not do that if I could include it all in one.
This would also free me from babysitting it and running each file script separately upon the other's completion. I can continue with my job and come back later and view the completed report all in one. So
if I could perform this on an entire folder, then I would want the entries to include the filename, the line number that the match occurred on in that file and the string text that was matched (each occurrence). I don't want the entire line to be listed
where the error was, just the match itself.
Example: (In the event this doesn't display correctly below, each match, it's corresponding filename and line number all go together on the same line. It somehow posted the example jumbled when I listed it)
File1.txt Line 54
Job terminated unexpectedly
File1.txt Line 58 Process not completed
File1.txt
Line 101 User input not provided
File1.txt
Line 105 Process not completed
File2.txt
No errors found
File3.txt
Line 35 No tape media found
File3.txt
Line 156 Bad surface media
File3.txt Line 188
Process terminated
Those are just random fake examples for this post.
This allows me to perform analysis on a set of files for various projects I am doing. Later on, when the entire search is completed, I can go back to the results file and look and see what files had items I wish to follow up on. Therefore, the
line number that each match was found on will allow me to see the big picture of what was going on when the entry was logged.
I actually import the results file into a spreadsheet, where further information is stored regarding each individual text string I am using. Very useful.
If you know how I can successfully achieve this in one script, please share. I have seen plenty of posts out there where people have requested all different aspects of it, but I have yet to see it all put together in one and work successfully.
Thanks for helping.

I'm sorry. I was so consumed in locating the issue that I completely overlooked posting what exactly I was needing help with. I did have one created, but I came across one that seemed more organized than what I originally created. Later
on I would learn that I had an error in log location on my original script and therefore thought it wasn't working properly. Now that I am thinking that I am pretty close to achieving what I want with this one, I am just going to stick with it.
However, I could still use help on it. I am not sure what I did not set correctly or perhaps overlooking as a typing error that my very last line of this throws an "Expected Statement" error. If I end with End, then it still gives same
results.
So to give credit where I located this:
http://vbscriptwmi.uw.hu/ch12lev1sec7.html
I then adjusted it for what I was doing.
What this does does is it searches thru log files in a directory you specify when prompted. It looks for words that are contained in another file; objFile2, and outputs the results of all matching words in each of those log files to another file: errors.log
Once all files are scanned to the end, the objects are closed and then a message is echoed letting you know (whether there errors found or not), so you know the script has been completed.
What I had hoped to achieve was an output to the errors.log (when matches were found) the file name, the line number that match was located on in that file and what was the actual string text (not the whole line) that matched. That way, I can go directly
to each instance for particular events if further analysis is needed later on.
So I could use help on what statement should I be closing this with. What event, events or error did I overlook that I keep getting prompted for that. Any help would be appreciated.

System.log file

I need to find the system.log file, but cannot. Where is it?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Jurgen

To see the log's contents, open the Console in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and click on the Logs button; one of the entries will be the system.log.
To see the log itself, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, enter /private/var/log/ as the folder's path, and locate the system.log file when that folder appears.

Is it safe to post one .log file?

Hi, I have a very basic question, so hopefully not laugh at me
Is it safe to post one. log file of the folder /var /log/?, I was wondering this, because they are often very long to read completely.
Do these files show some kind of private information or passwords?
hoping she would not laugh at me, thanks in advance
sorry for my English

You can post the tail of log material using the code tags - or, if it is a particularly long file, use a pastebin service:

Nevertheless, you should always check anything that you are posting to make sure it doesn't contain any information that you would be unwilling to have in the public domain.

Cannot Upgrade to 9860 With the Users Folder Redirected to Another Drive

I tried doing the update to 9860 and received an error message that I could not run the Windows Technical Preview because my "Program Files or Users folder has been redirected to another partition". This is indeed the case (my Users folder
was redirected to my other hard drive to save space on the SSD during setup), but if Windows is running fine, why is this not a valid configuration?
I've seen a complicated method to solve this issue and will do that to get the upgrades unless this can be addressed in the updater :)

Hi Fumarin,
This is not the new issue in current build. Actually, Microsoft has gave the reminder before:
Caution Using the ProgramData setting to redirect folders to a drive other than the system volume will block your ability to upgrade to future versions of Windows.
By changing the default location of the user profile directories or program data folders to a volume other than the system volume, you cannot service your Windows installation. Any updates, fixes, or service packs cannot be applied to the installation.
We recommend that you do not change the location of the user profile directories or program data folders.
See this article in Windows 8.1:
You encounter an error when trying to install Windows 8.1 due to redirecting the Users or Program Files folder to another partition
