Publishing w/FTP and spaces in file names

I read that if I wanted to build a site in iWeb, and then publish to a 'non .mac' server (via FTP) that I'd have to make sure that all of my file and page names didn't have any spaces or special characters in them.
I went thru all of my files and fixed all of the names, and then re-imported/re-linked using all of the new names.
When I 'publish to file' though, several of the files revert back to the old names in the newly published folder.
Anyone have any ideas? Is there a cache, or something, in iWeb that might be causing this?
Thanks, in advance...

did you get it fixed? because i had the same thing happen to me. what i did was,
-open your site on iweb
-click on the inspector button
-click on the metrics tab on it(thats second from the right, looks like a little ruler).
-click on a photo or a graphic. (it will show you the file name in the file info box).
-for any of the files that have spaces in them opened up a new finder window and go directly to that file.
-click on the file name and change it so that it has no spaces
-now draged it directly to the place holder on iweb.
-the file name should changed in the inspector box.
-then save it and re-publish it to a folder. in the folder you can look and see if it changed.
I had to do this with almost all my files. there might be a faster way but this worked for me
hope this helps.

30EA4 Bug - load data, space in file name

Ubuntu 10.10, JDK 6.24, Sql Developer 3.0 EA4
If we try to import/load data from .xls file with space in file name, for example "list of cattle.xls" instead "list_of_cattle.xls" it doesn't work. It reports the following error: "Load data into table TABLE_X from file list of cattle.xls. Task failed and load rolled back."
The only workaround is to rename the file name without spaces.

same problem when unload - Ver 3 - problem with unload results

Workflow scanning - Use space in file name

I configured two Xerox printers (WC 5875 and W 7835), with latest fimware installed, to scan on a windows shared folder using SMB protocol.The scan is working normally. But users experience this "interface" issue: is not possible to use SPACE character on the file name. The space bar is disabled on the printer screen when users try to modify the standard file name. Is it a software limitation? Is it related with SMB protocol? Is it possible to enable space in file name? Thanks in advance for assistance. CLAUDIO

If the current firmware begins with 072, upgrade to this one here and the option will be enabled for the space bar. 58xx devices 7830 and 7835 If the current software/Firmware begins with 071, I highly suggest a tech call be placed to have an Altboot no data backup no clone to those levels, the increment that changes from 071-072 is major, it is the change from Connectkey 1.0 to 1.5, and when done, due to extensive changes, does not at all play well with updates or clone files.

After I run a query can I get it to return the number of files matched and each individual file name?

After I run a query can I get it to return the number of files matched and each individual file name? I am trying to do a data mining routine and this would be helpful.

Hi bbanacki,
Please have a look at the following code:
Define your queries and then:
oAdvancedQuery.ReturnType=eSearchFile
oMyDataFinder.Results.MaxCount = iMaxNumberOfReturndElements
Call oMyDataFinder.Search(oAdvancedQuery)
Set oMyResults = oMyDataFinder.Results
If oMyResults.IsIncomplete Then
msgbox "The first " & str(oMyResults.Count) & " files found"
Else
msgbox str(oMyResults.Count) & " files found"
End If
for iLoop = 1 to oMyResults.Count
Cell.Text = oMyResults(iLoop).Properties("Name").Value
Cell.Text = oMyResults(iLoop).Properties("fullpath").Value
next
Greetings

It can't find URL when i use HLS for vod and the vod file name contain Chinese.

It can't find URL when i use HLS for vod and the vod file name contain Chinese。eg： http://127.0.0.1:8134/hls-vod/你好.mp4.m3u8.
How does it support Chinese path?

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

How to rename a flat file concatenating date and time the file name?

I created a package where I run a first interface that uses a flat file from a server and load into a table in Teradata.
After using the API OdiFtpPut, I used an FTP file and send to an outfit.
Since this procedure will operate daily, I need at the time of FTP, get the concatenation destination file name, date and time of execution.
What is the best practice for this?

Using OdiFtpPut in the field where it informs the destination file name, instead of putting just the file name (lpn_pln.csv), I put as follows:
- lp_pln_+<% = odiRef.getSysDate (ddMMyyyyhhmm ")%>+. csv
For code example, today would record the name lp_pln310120111412.csv

RMAN having trouble with spaces in file names.

Hi,
RMAN is complaining if cmdfile and log file names have space in them (even if they are quoted). This test is done on windows with 10g.
cmd> rman target / cmdfile rcmd.txt
This works fine. However,
cmd> rman target / cmdfile "E:\test dir\rcmd.txt"
complains about syntax. Something like:
Argument Value Description
target quoted-string connect-string for target database
catalog quoted-string connect-string for recovery catalog
nocatalog none if specified, then no recovery catalog
cmdfile quoted-string name of input command file
log quoted-string name of output message log file
trace quoted-string name of output debugging message log file
append none if specified, log is opened in append mode
debug optional-args activate debugging
msgno none show RMAN-nnnn prefix for all messages
send quoted-string send a command to the media manager
pipe string building block for pipe names
timeout integer number of seconds to wait for pipe input
checksyntax none check the command file for syntax errors
Both single and double quotes (' or ") are accepted for a quoted-string.
Quotes are not required unless the string contains embedded white-space.
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00552: syntax error in command line arguments
RMAN-01009: syntax error: found "identifier": expecting one of: "append, at, auxiliary, catalog, cmdfile, clone, checksyntax, debug, log, msglog, mask, msgno, nocatalog, pipe, rcvcat, script, slaxdebug, send, target, timeout, trace"
RMAN-01008: the bad identifier was: dir
RMAN-01007: at line 0 column 10 file: command line arguments
Am I missing something here? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Raghu.

I got response from oracle support folks on this. Looks like two levels of quotes are required to make it work.
Something like:
cmd> rman target / cmdfile "'E:\test dir\rcmd.txt'"

Source and target directory file name should be same

Hi,
How can i generate the same file name in target directory without date and Timestamp.
for eg., Source File name : yeswanth.txt
and target File name also : yeswanth.txt
Note : here source side the file yeswanth.txt is constant and whenever it moves to target directory...should be overwrite.
Reward points for useful answers.
Thanks & Regards,
yeswanth.

Hi Mugdhal,
am getting this error when i sent the same file again.
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException:
Yeswanth.txt: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. : com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550
Yeswanth.txt: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
But, here it should be overwrite the existing file.
Regards,
Yeswanth.

Quicktime 10 "Save For Web", spaces in file names?

Maybe I'm overlooking something here, but:
When using Quicktime 10's "Save for Web" function, it exports movie source files that all have spaces in the filenames (i.e. "Movie - iPhone.m4v" etc)
Now correct me if I'm wrong, but most web servers DO NOT like having spaces in the filenames, and every time I try to upload them to one of our web servers, I'm getting an error message that says it doesn't like the file.
Simply removing the spaces from the filenames causes the Quicktime reference movie to stop working, as you might expect.
Am I missing something here? How would someone possibly get this to work?

Thanks for the reply - actually it was helpful, and was the final nail in the coffin for Yahoo Webhosting for us. We've been using it for years, and even though it ***** terribly (and I mean TERRIBLY, horribly, painfully), we've stuck with it just because it's been easier to use it than to not switch. But you're exactly right... I tried uploading files to Cachefly with spaces in the name, and bingo, works perfectly.
Thanks.

Spaces in file names

Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you have run into this problem before. I am using java on an as400 system and there is a space in the file name. When I got to read/write from this file it comes up with a java.io error and says the file doesn't exist. Are there special characters to use for spaces in as400? and if so how would I implement them?
Thanks.

The following works on windows with java 1.4
    java.io.FileOutputStream f = new java.io.FileOutputStream("idiot space.txt");
    java.io.PrintStream ps = new java.io.PrintStream(f);
    ps.println("Line to file with spaces");
    ps.close();
    f.close();
Does the above code run on on your OS?
If no, then your JRE does not support that.
If yes then the character in the file is not a space. Or something else is wrong with your code.
If isn't a space then you might be able redirect the directory listing into a file and then use a hex editor to inspect it. If not that then you can use java.io.File to sequence through the directory and get the files in it. Then print the name of each. Either print it to a file and use a hex editor, or use java to print out the hex value.

HT4061 I downloaded an iTunes update on my HP. PC and restarted the computer for the hangers to take effect. Now my pc is locked up. It gives me a client Mac address and no boot file name received. What happened, and how do I get my pc back?

I downloaded an iTunes update and when ashen I restarted my pc it locked up. It says client Mac address 001320bead25, PXE E53 No boot file name received. PXE MOF. Exiting Broadcom pie rom. How do I get my pc back!

When you installed iTunes on your work computer, then connected your iPad to that computer, it wiped what was on the iPad, then put the iTunes library (nothing) from the work computer onto the iPad. You can try copying the iTunes folder from your home computer over to your work computer, but since the apps were bought with a different account, they may not load or update properly.

File adapter polling and getting the file name 11g Jdeveloper

I am using JDeveloper 11g. My process is something like;
A file adapter reads a XML file
This triggers the BPM process, file content is sent to start activity as message
I have to get the file name that is read by file adapter.
How to do that? Any help is appreciated.
I have seen couple of answers like bellow in forum but did not help me much
This is a very simple task in JDeveloper 11g, file adapters are linked to the receive activity, here there is a tab called Properties which you can use to extract the file name. Please follow the steps below:
1. Create a Simple Type variable of string type, call it fileName_var or any name you wish.
2. Open the Receive activity in your bpel project.
3. Scroll down to jca.file.FileName and double click on the value column, click on the browse button (...), select Variable, then click the search icon
4. Locate your recently created variable
5. Now when your project runs it will assign the file name to this variable, you can use this same approach also to pull the directory, file size, etc.
*************************/

hi,
Like you said.. steps are simple and clearly mentioned in guide.
1. create a variable of type string
2. after configuring the file adapter , go to corresponding receive activity , go to properties tab
3. search for a property with name as jca.file.FileName . This basically keeps track of file name
4. for this property, give the value as name of variable created in step 1 above
5. Use this variable anywhere in assign / transform

Missing "Content-Disposition" and attachment's file name

We're testing OCFO 10.1.3.0.6 with MS Outlook 2003 and found some problems when message with attachments is received.
If the attachment's file name is encoded and the body part looks like:
Content-Type: application/msword; name="=?utf-8?B?encoded name?="
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="=?utf-8?B?encoded name?="
everything is OK - the message is displayed as expected and the attachment's file name is decoded right.
But, if Content-Disposition field is missing, the attachment's file name is not decoded - it's displayed as "=?utf-8?B?encoded name?=" (the name is obviously taken from Content-Type's name parameter), we loose information about file's type and we can't open the attachment.
It seems that MS Outlook (without OCFO) is "smart" enough to decode Content-Type's name parameter as file name in the absence of Content-Disposition field. The same is true for Thunderbird.
Any ideas?

Actually the "name" parameter in Content-Type was declared depricated in RFC 1521 in september 1993, (now belongs to Content-Disposition) so they can be excused in a way....

File adapter polling and getting the file name

I have a requirement where I have to poll a file and dump the data into the DB. But while polling a file for a particular file name, I also need to get the name of the file to do some operations on the file. The file name should be passed from the adapter in order to do some operations based on the file name. Is it possible to get the file name by any chance?

Hi,
its easy to get the file name..by creating the variable for the fileAdapterInboundHeader.wsdl
just follow the below link.
