Run a .sh file via a web application

Hi,
How can I run a .sh file via a web application? I want to start and stop a service in linux via a web app.

a service in linux In Unix (including Linux) they are called rather daemons.
Anyway, usually appropriate (root) privileges are needed to start/stop a dameon and a web application should not run as root.
So be prepared that ome "sudo" magic might be needed.

Visual Studio 2013. Viewing a PDF file via the Web Browser control in Windows 8.1

I am writing a Windows Forms application in which I need to view PDF files via the Web Browser control. When the control is given the Navigate() command, Windows takes over and asks which program I want to open the file with. All was fine with VS 2010 and
XP. I have un-installed "PDF Complete", which was the default PDF viewer, but I now get asked for an alternative.
Thanks in advance.
Mike Saunders

Hi Mike,
It seems that we could use Internet Explorer to open a local .PDF file if it has the Adobe Reader. I doubt that the web control would be related to it. Like the MVP's suggset in the following thread, maybe it would be related
to certain plug-in tools in your side like the adober reader.

How to create and save a file in flex web application ?

Hi,
I want to create and save a file form flex web application. Is it possible ?
I have done some googling and found that its only possible through file referece, which needs some serverside implementation be called.
Is it not possible with file reference to create and save file directly ?
Can any one suggest how to over come this.
Thanks in advance.

Alex,
code written with the Flex Builder 3 libraries will certainly run in Flash Player 10. However, what you need is not so much the capabilities of FP10 but the library functionalities of the Flex 4 package. And I think that Flex 4 code will only run in FP10 and not 9 (but haven't tested this as at work we have not yet been permitted to upgrade, so there is not a lot of point going for Flex 4!).

Hello sir,

Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
r.exec("D:\\jboss\\bin\\run.bat");
My application is server will run when we run the java appliation.
any suggestion? plz give me the solutions

yes you can run html file
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT is a built-in that is used in Forms to call URL from a Web Form. It works much like the similar way that a link on an HTML page works and it takes two arguments, one is URL and second one is TARGET, in your case use following.
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://channas.iil.informatics.lk:8890/forms/frmservlet?config=abc.html', '_blank');
Hope this will work for you

My answer to "Where do I place the MDB in the web application" would be "Anywhere but there".DrClap, I'm embarrassed to read this, because you're only too correct. Thanks for the correction.
When you think about it, your advice makes a great deal more sense. Any database BUT Access would be on a separate server (e.g., Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server, etc.) Why wouldn't that be a good idea for Access, too?
On the other hand if it's a read-only database that would be different.You're too gracious to leave me this out. I throw myself on the mercy of the court for being a dumb ass. 8)

File separator in Web applications

I learned that to make a web application run in both windows and unix environments file seperator needs to be taken from a system property called file.separator.
But when i develop webapplications in windows with hardcoded file separator it still works in UNIX
e.g <img src="/images/spacer.gif"> and even when i forward to jsp's
it still works
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/blah.jsp")
Can someone explain me how we got around that
Thanks in advance

But when i develop webapplications in windows with hardcoded file separator
it still works in UNIXThat's just fine? What's the requirement then? That it should not work in UNIX? And what exactly should not work? Web paths or absolute filesystem paths?

How to use multiple configuration files in a web Application

Hi,
I am using JDev 11 TP3,JBoss4.2.1,Trindad 1.2.4.
In my project I have to use a set of (Login) pages over several other projects.
So I stored those pages (& backing beans) at an external location.
Now while editing the deployment profile of the web application I included the login pages from external location using "Contributors".
This way I was able to bring all the resources in the war. But the Faces-config.xml which contains the managed-bean registration of the login pages does not get included.
1. Either I could change the name of the external faces-config and register it in the current project by includeing it. OR
2. I could mention the managed-bean info in the current project's faces-config.
I want to use option 1.
How may I do it??

Hi,
if you package the managed beans in JAR files and add the faces-config.xml in the META-INF directory of it then it automatically registers at runtime

Binary file support for web application in 10.3?

There is such paragraph in Release notes for Flash Player 10.3:
Binary file support
Add more power to your web application with direct byte access to binary data. Control and access data in new ways, such as adding support for new file and data types or manipulating sound data in real time to create new sound effects.
Does anyone know what do they mean by this exactly?

Real programmers do it in binary!! ;-)

How to set a root directory for file management in web application

Is it possible to set a default root directory for file management for a web application ?
We would upload some files and store them in the web server.
When we write the uploaded files without any path, the files are written in the config directory into the jdeveloper embedded oc4j directory.
When we write the uploaded with a relative path ("/somedir/filename"), the files are written in C:/somedir/filename.
We would like that all file management with relative path into the web application refer automatically to a given root directory (for example defined in web.xml).
Is it possible ?

I'm using the standard upload in adf faces.
The problem is not during upload. This is managed in a temporay directory defined in web.xml. The problem is for writing the file that was uploaded (upload give us an inputStream we have to write somewhere, eventually after unzipping).
Here is an example of our current code.
if (mimeType.equals("application/x-zip-compressed") |
mimeType.equals("application/zip")) {
File destZipFile =
new File(rootDirectory + "/" + parametersDirectory +
"/" + uploadedFile.getFilename());
BufferedInputStream isZipFile =
new BufferedInputStream(uploadedFile.getInputStream());
FileOutputStream fosZipFile =
new FileOutputStream(destZipFile);
BufferedOutputStream bosZipFile =
new BufferedOutputStream(fosZipFile, BUFFER);
// read and write until last byte is encountered
while ((currentByte = isZipFile.read(data, 0, BUFFER)) !=
-1) {
bosZipFile.write(data, 0, currentByte);
}

Accessing PDF files outside the web application

Hi,
I have deployed a web application Tomcat / webapps/ Moto.
The Tomcat / webapps / Moto / resource.jsp file has links
to a pdf file located outside the Moto web app.
The pdf file is in Tomcat / webapps / doc / BAServerConfig.pdf.
Now, I'm unable to access this pdf from the resource.jsp page.
Is there any way i can do this?
I'm not supposed to move this pdf file to any location.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance,
Phani

I havent tested, but if it doesn't work, it should give you the idea:
<%@ page contentType="application/pdf;charset=TIS-620" %><% response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename="+request.getParameter("id").substring(request.getParameter("id").lastIndexOf("/")+1));
try{
    FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream(request.getParameter("id"));
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos=new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    byte buffer[]=new byte[1024];
    int length;
    while((length=fis.read(buffer))>=0) baos.write(buffer, 0, length);
    baos.writeTo(response.getOutputStream());
catch(Exception e){
    throw new ServletException(e);
%>Be aware to not to broke ... %><%..... with spaces or return characters.
And if this work, you can convert it to a servlet and enter corresponding entries in web.xml file.
Hope this help,

File Class in Web Applications

Hallo, i am creating a web Application but i need to know the fullpath of a file. I see that in the web based application i can call that FileReference class but with this class i can only get the name of a file and not the fullname. I can do this with the File Class which is avaible in Air Applications. How can i do it with my FlashPlayer application??....
Thanks for all
Max

You can't get that with FileReference on the web (Security reasons). It was
possible to get it with an HTML form and Javascript but I am not sure Firefox 3
is still delivering the full path. Also not sure it works in all the browsers.
