NetStorage (OES11) folder with accented filename

Hi,
When I want to download a folder containing a filename with accented characters like "", something weird happens. Opening the resulting zip file with Windows explorer does not show this filename in the archive. Opening it with 7-zip shows that these accented characters have been replaced with "?" characters.
I have installed all patches as of today.
Thanks,
Marc Delisle

  • Reporting Services Auto Export to PDF on a shared location with dynamic filename

    Hi Guys,
    I have this ERP system that is calling a url with the Document No parameter, the link automatically converts to a PDF but comes up with the OPEN/SAVE/CANCEL box however i want to automatically save to a default location...is this possible?
    Secondly i need the filename to be saved as the Paramter Name and the date.pdf in the format DocumentNo- Datetime.pdf is this also possible?
    Thank you in Advance

    Hi Dan,
    According to your description, you want to export a report to PDF using URL access. And trying to export the report with specify name automatically without prompting the OPEN/SAVE/CANCEL box. The file name should come from the parameters of the report.
    For security reasons, it is not allowed to write files on a client computer (Shared folder), except for a few pieces of information in cookies.
    While using URL access to export a report, the exporting process will save the file with the report’s name automatically.
    In order to export the report to a specify folder with a specify name, we can send a request to the Report Server in custom application, and then receive the data from the Report Server. In the custom application, save the data to the specify folder with the specify name in server side.
    Please follow these steps to archive the target:
    1.       Create a C# Web application.
    2.       In the page_load event of a page, embed the following code:
    string URL = "http://localhost/Reportserver?/AdventureWorks Sample Reports/Employee Sales Summary";
                string Command = "Render";
                string Format = "PDF";
                //We can get values of these parameters from Request object.
                string paramReportMonth = "12";
                string paramReportYear = "2003";
                string paramEmpID = "288";
                URL = URL + "&rs:Command=" + Command + "&rs:Format=" + Format + "&ReportMonth=" + paramReportMonth + "&ReportYear=" + paramReportYear +"&EmpID=" + paramEmpID;
                System.Net.HttpWebRequest Req = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest) System.Net.WebRequest.Create(URL);
                Req.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
                Req.Method = "GET";
                //Specify the path for saving.
                string path = @"C:\" + paramEmpID + "-" + paramReportYear + "-" + paramReportMonth + @".pdf";
                System.Net.WebResponse objResponse = Req.GetResponse();
                System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream(path, System.IO.FileMode.Create);
                System.IO.Stream stream = objResponse.GetResponseStream();
                byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
                int len = stream.Read(buf, 0, 1024);
                while (len > 0)
                    fs.Write(buf, 0, len);
                    len = stream.Read(buf, 0, 1024);
                stream.Close();
                fs.Close();
    3.       Use the URL of the above page with parameters to export a report to the specify folder with specify filename.
    E.g. http://<server>/custom application/export.aspx?parameterReportYear=2003&parametermonth=12&EmpId=288
    Of course, we can pass other parameters with the URL such as Format.
    Please feel free to ask, if you have any more questions.
    Thanks,

  • Why does Bridge have trouble with accents in filenames?

    We work in an in-house studio with Creative Suite 4. Being in Montreal, Canada, many of our documents have accented characters in the file and folder names. When Bridge attempt to display these accented filenames, occasionally the capital letters get converted to lowercase letters and a trip to the Finder window (we are on OS X 10.5 and 10.6) shows folders doubling, tripling and then going back to normal with no human intervention, as if 'springing' on its own. The files are on a mounted server. The folders and files are created through Adobe Bridge CS4 or through the dialog box in InDesign CS4, Illustrator CS4 and/or Photoshop CS4.
    I've posted a video on my Dropbox account so you can see the problem.
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4289569/Business/jumping%20window.mov
    We've contacted Apple and they say it's not their problem. Is there a known bug regarding this that Adobe is aware of?

    Creating folders in Finder and Bridge with accents in the file and folder
    name (although I've always learned this is a bad thing to do but I
    understand the need for your use) is no problem on a stand alone
    configuration.
    I believe it has more to do with the use of working with a server. For best
    answers you could open a case with Adobe Tech Support using the contact
    button and explicit name the use of a server in the description.
    Hopefully you get a better answer from them then from 'not our problem'

  • Find a filename in a folder with aperture databases (or files)

    hi,
    I guess it has been asked before. Is there a way with OSX 10.6.8. to search a folder with about 20 aperture files (or databases) for a single filename?
    I am not searching for duplicates (so Tidyup or Duplicate Annihilator don't work for this), but a single filename. I just don't know in which aperture file this photo is stored, and I don't want to open all and search trough them.
    "Search" in finder does not help, nor the classic "search" via cmd + space. It does not search trough my aperture files.
    any help would be appreciated.
    thanks
    Chris

    Hi Chris -- just search for an app that will search Finder packages.  I found this:
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile
    I use Launchbar which allows search within Finder packages, but it does a lot more (and cost more).
    While moderately tedious, opening twenty Libraries and running the same search on each one may take less time than finding another way to do it.

  • Can't delete file or directory with accent character

    I have a directory within my iTunes folder structure that has an accent character in it which I am trying to delete.
    If I do an ls on the directory I get this:
    ls -al ls: Radiů Disney_ Jams Vol. 2: No such file or directory
    total 0
    drwxr-xr-x 3 scott staff 102 Jul 29 13:16 .
    drwxrwxr-x@ 21 scott staff 782 Jul 29 13:24 ..
    I've tried rm -rf * but after that I attempt an ls -l I still get: ls: Radiů Disney_ Jams Vol. 2: No such file or directory
    Any way to delete the directory with offending filename? If I attempt to delete the parent directory I get a "Directory not empty message"

    macwiz,
    I tried the SMB path as well but the files were acting as though they were written with indelible electrons. I remembered that the files were originally created and deposited into the folder from a windows machine. I logged into my folder from the same machine and was able to delete them without any problem.
    I appreciate your help and have saved your suggestions (I'm sure they'll come in handy).
    cheers

  • Automator and applescript to copy new files in a folder with same name as parent folder

    I have an iMac with a pictures folder (Finder folder) containing several subfolders with pictures. As per now, all these subfolders are imported into an iPhoto library (and the structure of the Finder pictures folder is thus maintained: The iPhoto events are named the same as the Finder subfolder). I.e. I have not created any albums in iPhoto.
    I have also set up a workflow, where new iPhone photos are automatically being synced to specified Finder folders within the iMac pictures folder. So what I want to do is to make a workflow to import potential new photos from week to week into the existing iPhoto structure. I know iPhoto has this Autoimport folder, so this one is unpacked and "mapped". So, this is what I´m hoping to do:
    Automator (iCal - want to do this on a weekly basis):
    - Get specified Finder items -- set to target folder = iMac pictures folder
    - Get folder content (with subfolders)
    - Filter Finder items
         - Items from the last 7 days (which then would be any new files created last week)
    - Applescript/shell script loop(?)
         - Get folder name for each file´s (from previous step) parent folder
         - Create new folder with same name as the file´s parent folder (if not already existing) under the iPhoto Autoimport folder
         - Copy the given file into the folder from above
    - Run iPhoto application (Automator task), which then should just auto import the new photos according to the Finder folder structure
    Whith the workflow above, I aim to maintain the existing iPhoto structure, and just import new photos into the existing structure. Creating folder names under the Autoimport, similar as the existing Finder folder names / iPhoto events should make it possible to have the new files imported under the existing event, right?

    Anyone?
    I have now switched to Aperture (from iPhoto) due to Aperture´s capability to handle Finder folder structure, and due to the possibility of having the pictures within Aperture as referenced files to the pictures within the Finder folders (i.e. possibility to delete pictures from both library and Finder folder at the same time).
    So I have a superior Finder folder called "Album". Within "Album" I have several subfolders (sub albums) containing pictures. The "Album" folder with subfolders are imported into Aperture as "Projects and albums", and the pictures are uploaded within the Aperture structure as referenced files. So for now the Aperture structure is more or less a direct mirror of the Finder folder structure, whereas "Album" is the project.
    And this is my current workflow in Automator, but I´m searching help with my Applescript:
    - Get specified Finder items (target folder = the superior Finder folder "Album")
    - Get Folder content
    - Filter Finder items (to look for potential new files to import into Aperture)
         - Kind is not folder
         - Date created last X days
    The output files from this task enters an Applescript
    on run {input, parameters}
           repeat with f in input (**Loop**)
                   tell application "Finder"
                          set fileName to name of (f)
                          set parentFolder to name of container of (f)
                          tell application "Aperture"
                                 tell library 1
                                        tell project "Album"
                                               if (exists album parentFolder) then
                                                 ** I then would like to check if fileName already exist within the existing album**
                                                 ** If not existing, I would like to import file f into the existing album as a referenced file**              
                                               else if not (exists album parentFolder) then
                                                       make new album with properties {name:parentFolder}
                                                ** I then would like to import file f into the new album as a referenced file**
                                               end if
                                        end tell
                                 end tell
                          end tell

  • Automate Creation of Folder based on Filename

    Hi,
    I am a total newbie to Automator, and although I have some programming background, I have not wrapped my brain around how this wonderful tool works yet. I need to perform a task on several hundred files and I need to do it soon, so no time to learn and play with Automator right now.
    I was wondering if someone can give me a true step by step instructions for creating a script that will do the following:
    This is how I would like the flow to behave:
    1. I select a file and run the script (hopefully based on a keystroke). The script will then:
    2. Create a new folder in the same directory as the file.
    3. Name the new folder based on the filename (minus the extension) of the above selected file.
    4. Move the selected file into the new folder.
    So basically I am enveloping the selected file in a new folder that is named the same as the file itself (minus the extension).
    Thank you in advance.

    OK, I reworked and tested it, so I think I've got all the oddities found. I wound up just using an AppleScript, since about the only thing Automator was used for was getting Finder Items (and it didn't do so well at that). Paste the script into the Script Editor and save it as an application (make sure the Startup Screen option is unchecked). You can either drop items on it or double-click it, in which case it will prompt for items. Document files are the only things processed, and packages/bundles are handled correctly (getting subfolders will not go into them), so you don't have to worry about things like application bundles and .rtfd files.

  • How to get the file name from downloads folder with the applescript??

    Hi All..
    I am downloading an application to downloads folder, I need to install the same application after downloading programatically.
    So how do I get the filename in runtime while downloading or after downloading from downloads folder with Applescript or Java?
    Also my download URL link doesnot contain full name of the download file.
    Pls suggest.

    Hi,
    The best method is to use curl.
    Other methods are not reliable, but can work, it depends on several factors (what the script does, what the user does).
    Here is an example with the curl command:
    set tUrl to "http://sourceforge.net/projects/vlc/files/2.0.4/macosx/vlc-2.0.4.dmg/download?ac cel_key=60%3A1350656196%3Ahttp%253A//www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html%3 A7233e4e9%245818d66f39b0576e1e9c4a0f3b46b1991180bfdd&click_id=976a88ee-19f7-11e2 -9a21-0200ac1d1d8e&source=accel"
    set dFolder to path to downloads folder
    tell application "Finder" to set newFolder to (make new folder at dFolder) as string
    set f to quoted form of POSIX path of newFolder
    do shell script "cd " & f & " && curl -L " & tUrl & " -o 'vlc.dmg'" -- download  to file "vlc.dmg"
    set downloadedFile to newFolder & "vlc.dmg" --<-- HFS path
    --do something with the downloadedFile

    The first thing I'd suggest you fix is the forum to which you posted the question.
    The name of this forum is "Oracle Database General Questions." That is questions about the database ... not questions about PHP.
    Look further and you will find the correct forum.

  • Itunes 11.1.5.5 can not add files or folders with accents?

    Hello,
    I'm using Itunes 11.1.5.5 and when I use the add folder to my library all the files with no accents are added propperly but all those folders or files with an accent (á é í ó ú) that are commonly used in spanish are not well recognized and will add only the song without all the related information (artis, album, etc) so it is impossible to add an keep ordered. This didn´t happened to me in previous versions. Can someone help with a solution? Is this a bug and how can I solve?
    Thanks

    More details for this scenario. With only one file (song) with an accent, all the songs on that folder would be added with no tags under "unknown album" no artist. The same will happen for all the songs within a folder with an accent.

  • Command to share a folder with hyphens

    I need to share a folder via cmd for use in a batch file hence the %computername% part. The file is %computername%-scan and is located in the root of c drive and will be shared with a share name of %computername% where %computername% is the pc's hostname to
    a local user which i used in administrator mode.
    net share %computername%=c:\"%computername%-scan" /GRANT:scan,CHANGE
    I used the above command to share it but it is not successful. However, if i remove the -scan from the filename and the command with the quote marks,the sharing works. Is there a special option for sharing a folder with symbols and characters?

    Hello,
    Try this this will work....
    net share %computerName%=C:\%computerName%-Scan /GRANT:UserName,CHANGE
    pause

    Nope I just forgot adding them in the example. Usually I let them be added by Tab-completion or when my target is nonexistent I use quotes.
    lolilolicon wrote:You shouldn't put double quotes around $(find ...) since this way mplayer will try to play this one big long filename.
    Okay, makes sense. I was actually thinking that this way I could solve the problem that the list given by find doesn't escape the spaces (for which Procyon's solution is nice). Thanks to both of you!

    Nice! This might be just the right solution for me. Small and functional. I'm going to check it out later.
    And thanks, brisbin33, for reminding me of find's power
    And mapfile sounds interesting, too. No manpage though. I'm going to check the Ecyclopaedia Britannica on it.
    All covered Thanks!
