MaxL and long names

I am running version 6.5 on Win2k. I heard a rumor that MaxL does not correctly interpret the Windows mappings of long names. For example, it has trouble mapping DOCUME~1 to "Documents and Settings". In particular, if I dynamically get the system variable TEMP through VB for the purpose of saving a file there, which might be buried under Docs and Settings ... and then create a MaxL script to import that file, on execution I get an error that the length of the essmsh statement is too long. The problem is that I get the error sporadically, meaning not always on the same import command - but always on one that is importing a file from TEMP. Has anyone heard of this? Harold

Hi Arek,
Are you using Web Application Designer to create dashboards?
If so, you can change these names in the properties of each web item used.

  • Short Names and Long Names on Wiki Server

    I have my Snow Leopard server bound to an Active Directory server and it all works great with not problems. One thing I did notice however, is that when users login to the Wiki server using their AD account and reply to a post (leave a comment) or edit a page, then their short name will appear instead of their long name.
    This problem does not affect all my users, only some. About half of my users long names appear and the rest only display their short name. I checked the directory settings in AD and WGM; both have the name attribute filled correctly for all users but only some are displaying on the Wiki.
    Any ideas?
    I created augmented user records for my staff but not for my non-staff users. This problem only affects my non-staff users. I don't really want to create augmented user records to get around this; and anyway, it is working halfway with out them, so it shouldn't be an issue with augmented records, right?
    Thanks for your brain power in advance

    I apologize. I was unclear in my description of my new problem. I have some users using Mail.app and others using Entourage. I've encountered the "file too large" problem with Entourage users. For the record, I'm using the backup program iBackup. In the log file it creates, it states that the Entourage database file is too large.
    For example, one person has a 2.6GB Entourage database file. iBackup will start copying and get to around 2GB, maybe 2.1 or 2.2. It will then appear to quickly finish. Looking in the backup folder on the server, it shows the entirety of the Office 2004 Identities folder to be 96KB....
    Is this some sort of weird limitation on the part of Windows Server 2003 and how it deals with communication from Macs, or is it just an issue with iBackup? I have copied much larger files using iBackup to back up to a locally-attached Firewire hard drive successfully, so I am leaning towards a strange Windows Server issue.
    Thanks for any input!

  • I want to *use* very long file and path names!

    This is really a plea to Microsoft...
    There are several threads about copying or deleting files where the path and/or file name is too long.
    Most have explanations of why this problem occurs.  (depending on Windows version and application, the total length [fully qualified file name; i.e. C:\this-dir\that-dir\somefile.xyz] is limited to a maximum of 260 or fewer characters).  This limit
    But I *WANT* to be able to use very long file names and paths!
    I can understand Microsoft keeping this limit - even while allowing UNICODE paths and file names up to 32k characters - because many existing tools will be unable to handle the longer names.  This would probably yield a lot of questions/flames about
    them "breaking the software I've used for years."
    But it would be possible to have a system setting to optionally allow the long names.  Since I'd have to manually set it, I'd know I'm potentially breaking existing software.
    In my case, I'm backing up various file directories where some files are very long.  With the server-side additional paths (e.g., client-name\project-name\backup-date\...") I occasionally hit files that can't be copied.  Renaming is not suitable;
    sometimes names have to match other file names.
    I can zip them, create iso files, use a backup program that creates a blob, put them in a source-control system, etc - but I really don't *want* to do that; it's very convenient to have a direct copy of the directories.  Each of these 'solutions' either
    requires extra work (which could be scripted, so ok...) or doesn't work with the work-flow for some reason.
    Microsoft, *please* fix this in Windows 8!  (if not before...)   This limit has existed for far too long!
    And readers - please don't just repeat what's in the other threads (rename/use subst/map directory/etc) or flame without useful information.  Thanks!

  • Long file and path names

    I have a dialog window where users can choose a file, the name and path of which is then displayed. The field where this is displayed isn't big enough to hold the typical long path names found on for example Windows. I was wondering if there is a standardized way of shortening/abbreviating the full path name already written up somewhere? I want my program to be portable ... I looked at how MS Word does it on Windows, and I could write a specialized function to copy that, but then it wouldn't work on other systems that use different path conventions, and I would like to keep the generality if possible. On word they do something like this
    C:/.../final directory/filename

    Kramis wrote:
    sure, that much I understand, but I wouldn't know how to create that sort of string from an arbitrary path name of unknown format. In Windows, for example, I could take the first three characters and then ..., but that might not work globally. The questions is about parsing and converting a path name from an arbitrary system.I'd just split the path into its 'final directory name' and 'file name' (with the universal Java path seperator of (/)), and stick '...' in front of it.
    So any path such as C:/blah/blah/blah/endpath/filename or /unix/path/blah/blah/endpath/filename would become .../endpath/filename regardless of platform.

  • In the lefthand sidebar of Finder, under 'Shared', I encounter in addition my TC, another computer, identified by a long name starting with 'hp'. I don't have another computer. What could this be? And how to get rid of it?

    In the Finder sidebar, under 'Shared', I encounter my TC, as well as another item with a long name starting with 'hp'. 'Get info' shows it to be a 'PC'. However, I don't have a PC. It cannot be my printer (HP), since that has anoter name.
    I can not access the item, which has me a 'guest'.
    What could this item be? And how to get rid of it?
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    DB

    It's almost certainly your hp printer and is showing the WiFi adapter MAC address after the HP.
    To verify, look at the printer configuration page via Bonjour in Safari.  The settings tab shows the Mac address in the bottom left hand corner for my model of HP printer.
    I'm sorry but I can't explain why that would show up in the finder.

  • Why do contacts name keep getting longer and longer?

    On some of my contacts, the name keeps getting longer and longer.
    For example, if my name is Jason Kahng.
    After a few weeks, when I lookup my name in Contacts it comes up as "Jason Kahng Jason Kahng Jason Kahng"
    This is very annoying. If I edit the name back down to Jason Kahng, it will do this again a few weeks later.
    Please let me know how to fix this problem.
    Thank you!

    Your iPhone uses Wi Fi to sync your contacts, not iTunes with iOS 5.0.1
    Tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Contacts off then back on then reset the iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Rescue and Recovery: is long path and file name OK?

    I am using T61 6466 5wG. For full system backup I am using R&R 4.21, and a WD Mybook USB HDD. I did regular backup before using R&R. When a virus attack happened, I tried to recovery my computer, but then I found I only get the folders back while not the files inside. Then I tried to find something back by using the function of "restore individual files", but nothing found still. Most of the lost files have common features, either very long file name or very long folder and path name. One noticing that the size of each backup file is pretty large and reasonable.
    So I am wondering what was actually happened to my backup and restore? Is it a backup failure or a restore failure? Dose the R&R have problem with very long file names or path names? If it is only a restore failure, is there any possibilty to find my old files back?

    thanks for the info.,you could also try long path tool. it helped me with error 1320 in Win 7.,

    Err this is no longer April 1st you know.
    The iPod Shuffle has never had a 'display' on which track names can be shown. See http://www.apple.com/ipod-shuffle/ if you want an iPod which does have a display on which you can see the tracks names and even the album cover art then look instead at the bigger and more expensive iPod Nano http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/ or iPod Touch http://www.apple.com/ipod-touch/
    PS. The current iPod Shuffle even though it has no display on which it can show the track names can read them out loud to you using a voice-synthesiser this is the VoiceOver feature described on the iPod Shuffle product page I listed above.

  • Can't see location of item with long name in Spotlight search?

    I can find the location of an item in a Spotlight search by selecting it and holding down the Command key, whereupon its position is displayed at the bottom of the Spotlight window.
    However, if the item has a long name, the location is "offscreen" as shown in the screenshot below.
    Is there any way of displaying it?

    Somebody in another forum told me it couldn't be done in Spotlight  but the word  "no"  must have kick-started my stubborn streak and I started hitting every other key I could find whilst holding down the command key to keep the incomplete location revealed.
    Eventually I struck lucky when I pressed Return (or Enter)  .  .  .  the window below opened and I was able to do a "Get Info" on the item to find its exact location.

  • Windows XP, Java and long filenames when running application from a server

    Hi,
    I've been struggling with this for a while, can't understand why Windows XP seems to give me 8.3-filenames with ~ (tilde) instead of the full file- and path-names.
    I've added a key in the registry, when a user right-clicks on a txt-file they get an option to open the file using my program. The key maps to:
    javaw.exe -jar "\\networkdrive\automapper.jar"  "\\networkdrive\Automapper.cfg" "%1"This basically means that javaw will be used to execute my automapper.jar and the automapper.cfg and filename/path will be added as parameters to my java-program. Notice that my jar-file resides on a network-server and not on my local machine. This works just fine though.
    However, when I read the supplied filename in my java-code it is always in Windows 8.3-format using ~ to represent the missing chars. This is not a huge problem since everything works. The problem is that I convert the file and save it with a different file-ending, but with the same name (before the suffix). This means that the user runs my program on:
    this_is_a_long_file_name.txtand ends up with his original file and my new file named something like:
    this_i~1.qqqwhich admittedly looks ugly.
    If I run the application locally on my machine everything works fine and the long file names seems to handled correctly. The problem only arises because the program is run from a server. This is a microsoft network, I do not know anything else about it, sorry.
    Now I know, this is not strictly java-related, but I'm running out of options here and thought that perhaps one of you have solved this before. An option would be that I myself convert the short-filename to a long one, if that is possible? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! If you don't know the answer, but know a good place to ask I would appreciate that as well.

    It seems to me that if a File (in the java-sense) is created with a 8.3-path it retains that path, meaning that this code will always give the same result in both printLn-statements:
       System.out.Println("input: " + args[2]);
       File file = new File(args[2]
       System.out.Println("output: " + file.getName());will give the output
    input: very_long_file_name_here.txt
    output: very_long_file_name_here.txt
    or
    input: very_~1.txt
    output: very_~1.txt

  • How to get the column name and table name from xml file

    I have one XML file, I generated xsd file from that xml file but the problem is i dont know table name and column name. So my question is how can I retrieve the data from that xml file?

    Here's an example using binary XML storage (instead of Object-Relational storage as described in the article).
    begin
      dbms_xmlschema.registerSchema(
        schemaURL       => 'my_schema.xsd'
      , schemaDoc       => xmltype(bfilename('TEST_DIR','my_schema.xsd'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'))
      , local           => true
      , genTypes        => false
      , genTables       => true
      , enableHierarchy => dbms_xmlschema.ENABLE_HIERARCHY_CONTENTS
      , options         => dbms_xmlschema.REGISTER_BINARYXML
    end;
    genTables => true : means that a default schema-based XMLType table will be created during registration.
    enableHierarchy => dbms_xmlschema.ENABLE_HIERARCHY_CONTENTS : indicates that a repository resource conforming to the schema will be automatically stored in the default table.
    If the schema is not annotated, the name of the default table is system-generated but derived from the root element name :
    SQL> select table_name
      2  from user_xml_tables
      3  where xmlschema = 'my_schema.xsd'
      4  and element_name = 'employee';
    TABLE_NAME
    employee1121_TAB
    (warning : the name is case-sensitive)
    To annotate the schema and control the naming, modify the content to :
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xdb="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb">
      <xs:element name="employee" xdb:defaultTable="EMPLOYEE_XML">
        <xs:complexType>
    Next step : create a resource, or just directly insert an XML document into the table.
    Example of creating a resource :
    declare
      res  boolean;
      doc  xmltype := xmltype(
    '<employee>
      <details>
        <emp_id>1</emp_id>
        <emp_name>SMITH</emp_name>
        <emp_age>40</emp_age>
        <emp_dept>10</emp_dept>
      </details>
    </employee>'
    begin
      res := dbms_xdb.CreateResource(
               abspath   => '/public/test.xml'
             , data      => doc
             , schemaurl => 'my_schema.xsd'
             , elem      => 'employee'
    end;
    The resource has to be schema-based so that the default storage mechanism is triggered.
    It could also be achieved if the document possesses an xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute :
    SQL> declare
      2 
      3    res  boolean;
      4    doc  xmltype := xmltype(
      5  '<employee xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      6             xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="my_schema.xsd">
      7    <details>
      8      <emp_id>1</emp_id>
      9      <emp_name>SMITH</emp_name>
    10      <emp_age>40</emp_age>
    11      <emp_dept>10</emp_dept>
    12    </details>
    13   </employee>'
    14   );
    15 
    16  begin
    17    res := dbms_xdb.CreateResource(
    18             abspath   => '/public/test.xml'
    19           , data      => doc
    20           );
    21  end;
    22  /
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed
    SQL> set long 5000
    SQL> select * from "employee1121_TAB";
    SYS_NC_ROWINFO$
    <employee xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceS
      <details>
        <emp_id>1</emp_id>
        <emp_name>SMITH</emp_name>
        <emp_age>40</emp_age>
        <emp_dept>10</emp_dept>
      </details>
    </employee>
    Then use XMLTABLE to shred the XML into relational format :
    SQL> select x.*
      2  from "employee1121_TAB" t
      3     , xmltable('/employee/details'
      4         passing t.object_value
      5         columns emp_id   integer      path 'emp_id'
      6               , emp_name varchar2(30) path 'emp_name'
      7       ) x
      8  ;
                                     EMP_ID EMP_NAME

  • Album artwork and song names do not download. How do I get this to download.  Submitting is not working

    album artwork and song names do not download. How do I get this to download.  Submitting is not working

    Hello!
    I own a small company and we are having the same problems.
    IE9 is not working with the latest flash update infact the update has messed up flash complety for all sites once installed.  I went to YouTube eariler and it warned that I needed to install to the new Flash Player upon instaling and returning to YouTube it had the same message. This led us to download both the x86 and x64 versions and useing the uninstaller went through each one and tried the updates. None of the downloadable updates from Adobes site works. I have also loaded up Windows XP in a virtual machine and trying IE 8 with the latest updates and it as well does not work and does the same thing upon updateing it just keeps saying to install the latest update allthough it has allready been done!
    Now on the other hand I loaded FireFox and it had the same update and upon restarting the browser after applying the update and it works just fine!
    Im on a Windows 7 x64 Ultimate box and ran the WindowsXP in the VM. FireFox was loaded on the main OS and worked fine after said update.
    Of Course I have allready double checked the running addons in IE 9 and the files within the /system32/ and all the flash files go there (x86 and x64 were differnt named files)
    Im guessing there is something conflicting betwen IE (IE 8 and 9 tested)
    Now this is not just happining on this machine but all of our desktops and laptops no one has any trouble with FireFox working
    Also this will break all flash objects in IE even localy as now no flash works it acts like it is not installed.
    Guess will see how long this takes to get fixed or aknowledged...  lol

  • Question about Domain and Host name fields.

    Hello! Just a quick question, I currently have the Mail Server up and running although I'm a little unsure about what exactly needs to be entered into the users email application.
    I've tested POP and IMAP using the information that I entered into the "Domain Name" field, and into the "Host name" field, and everything worked great.
    Example:
    Incoming Mail Server: mail.example.com
    Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.example.com
    Although while setting up another site and including the normal mail setup via DNS I've also noticed that I can send and receive email by using other sites that belong to me, as long as they are pointing towards our server.
    Example:
    Incoming Mail Server: mail.mynewsite.com
    Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.mynewsite.com
    So, I guess my question is whether its bad to use other websites in the incoming and outgoing mail server fields, or should I stick to the incoming and outgoing sites that I have listed in the Mail Server's 'Domain Name' and 'Host Name' fields?
    I hope that made sense, thanks again for your help.
    Paul
    PowerMac G5, Xserve G5, and PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    Does it matter if our users type mail.example.com
    into the incoming mail server, or are they allowed to
    use their own domain name "mail.mydomain.com" as long
    as the DNS is setup correctly?
    There is no intrinsic 'meaning' to hostnames entered into the mail client. These are merely converted to IP addresses, using available dns, and then the mail client communicates with the IP address, using whatever port number is applicable for the service required (e.g., port 25 for smtp, port 110 for pop). So you could use the hostname woohooo.mydomain.com for the smtp or pop server, as long as it resolves to the correct IP.
    This enables laptop users to have the one smtp/pop hostname, with lan dns resolving it to the local private IP and ext dns resolving same hostname to wan IP.
    There is also no need to have two separate hostnames for pop and smtp. These are typically used by ISPs because they have separate servers doing each job - one doing pop, one doing smtp. If one server does both (and there is no likelihood of splitting the services later) then just the one hostname for pop and smtp is fine.

  • Mapping CLOB and Long in xml schema

    Hi,
    I am creating an xml schema to map some user defined database objects. For example, for a column which is defined as VARCHAR2 in the database, I have the following xsd type mapping.
    <xsd:element name="Currency" type="xsd:string" />
    If the oracle column is CLOB or Long(Oracle datatype), could you please tell me how I can map it in the xml schema? I do not want to use Oracle SQL type like:
    xdb:SQLType="CLOB" since I need a generic type mapping to CLOB. Would xsd:string still hold good for CLOB as well as Long(Oracle datatype) ?
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Vadi.

    The problem is that LONGs are not buffered but are read from the wire in the order defined. The problem is the same as
    rs = stmt.executeQuery("select myLong, myNumber from tab");
    while (rs.next()) {
    int n = rs.getInt(2);
    String s = rs.getString(1);
    The above will fail for the same reason. When the statement is executed the LONG is not read immediately. It is buffered in the server waiting to be read. When getInt is called the driver reads the bytes of the LONG and throws them away so that it can get to the NUMBER and read it. Then when getString is called the LONG value is gone so you get an exception.
    Similar problem here. When the query is executed the CLOB and BLOB locators are read from the wire, but the LONG is buffered in the server waiting to be read. When Clob.getString is called, it has to talk to the server to get the value of the CLOB, so it reads the LONG bytes from the wire and throws them away. That clears the connection so that it can ask the server for the CLOB bytes. When the code reads the LONG value, those bytes are gone so you get an exception.
    This is a long standing restriction on using LONG and LONG RAW values and is a result of the network protocol. It is one of the reasons that Oracle deprecates LONGs and recommends using BLOBs and CLOBs instead.

    Never mind, I already found the solution myself.
    What I did wrong was:
    - not copying the master image to the nbi folder
    - selecting the netinstall-restore.dmg image as source to copy to my HD.
    The thing is, when you create a netinstall image for 10.5, the image itself is already included in the netinstall image so you don't have to do anything else.
    With the 10.4 image however, you also have to copy the master image to the NetBootSP0 directory.
    In the *.nbi folder contains an netinstall-restore.dmg file. But that is only to boot you to netrestore, it's not the image itself.
    Other alternative is to copy the images to another folder that you share with AFP and adjust the configuration of netrestore like described in this manual:
    http://www.shellharbourd.det.nsw.edu.au/pdf/misc/osxrestoringnet.pdf
    This manual was also how I figured out that I forgot to copy the image to the NetBootSP0 folder.
