Scanning for additional file extensions

Hi
We have a requirement to scan and report back PCs which have database files on the local drives, and I am struggling to configure ZCM Inventory to scan for files with the mdb extension. I have checked the product documentation and do not seem to have missed anything
In the Device Inventory settings section on the Configuration page I have "collect software file information" ticked on all the inventory scan types.
In the "software files" section I have "Collect .exe files" ticked, and have placed mdb in the additional extensions field. I also have all three (system, ancillary, other) file catagories ticked.
The inventory reports back all the exe files it can see on the test system I am running the inventory against (and yes I do have some .mdb files on there), but does not report back any mdb files.
Is there something I am missing in order for this to work?
Thanks
Gary

  • Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

    Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
    I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
    So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
    Any assistance would be appreciated?
    Leo

    The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default.  The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
    Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
    Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
    That should be it.

  • Using an * for all file extensions in a class selection parser

    Using iFS 1.1.9....
    I have successfully gotten a custom document class created using
    xml. I have used the following code to set up the parser, etc.
    If I use a specific file extension like txt the parser will
    upload the file as my custom class. However, if I use * for all
    file extensions the parser uploads all files as Document class.
    Here is what I am using:
    <?xml version='1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <!--RegisterQualParser-->
    <PropertyBundle>
    <Update
    Reftype='ValueDefault'>ParserLookupbyfileExtension</Update>
    <Properties>
    <Property Action = 'add'>
    <Name>*</Name>
    <Value Datatyupe = 'String'>
    oracle.ifs.beans.parsers.ClassSelectionParser
    </Value>
    </Property>
    </Properties>
    </Propertybundle>
    When the above is uploaded I can go into iFS Manager and see
    that the parser has been registered with * as the file extention.
    I then upload this:
    <?xml version='1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <!--RegisterCustomClass-->
    <PropertyBundle>
    <Update
    Reftype='ValueDefault'>IFS.PARSER.ObjectTypeLookpByFileExtension
    </Update>
    <Properties>
    <Property Action = 'add'>
    <Name>*</Name>
    <Value Datatype='String'>QualDocument</Value>
    </Property>
    </Properties>
    </PropertyBundle>
    If I have txt or some other extension for the Name in place of
    the * and upload a document it will put the class as
    QualDocument. If I have the * it defaults to Document.
    Is there a way to have the parser make all uploaded documents
    QualDocument instead of Document without doing this for each and
    every possible file extension?
    Thanks.

  • "The upload has failed. There was a problem running a virus scan for the file."  any ideas???

    "The upload has failed.

    This is the message i get when tryng to update
    any ideas?

    Error: "svr.VirusScanExecutionError"
    An intermittent problem with acrobat.com's underlying virus scan component causes this issue. This issue happens occasionally on a small number of server instances.
    The solution is to update the article again. Trying again typically routes you to a different host in the server array.

  • FileDialog (filtering for certain file extensions)

    I have used JFileChooser in the past and was modifying my code to use FileDialog instead as it looks better, looks like the one used by every other Windows program and takes less code to get the job done. My
    question is how to filter for certain file extensions in FileDialog as you can in JFileChooser. I cannot seem to figure out how to, so any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
    P.S. Also if you know how to turn off all files like you can in JFileChooser, that would also be extremely helpful.

    Go to the JFileChooser tutorial at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/filechooser.html and skip to the section entitled "Filtering the List of Files". That sounds like it should answer your question.

  • DW CC: Can't find a valid editor for this file extension

    Hi,
    I am using dreamweaver cc for 1 month now. I have been having difficulty opening .asp file.
    In the File panel, when i click on one of the asp files, the error message is 'Can't find a valid editor for this file extension'.
    To solve this problem, I will right click on the file and choose Open with > Dreamweaver.
    However, this is very inconvenient. Someone pls help!

    You can configure that in your Operating System.  In my version of Windows XP, open any folder and  select TOOLS/FOLDER OPTIONS/FILE TYPES then scroll to the asp file type and select DW as the editor.

    Support for ColdFusion and other databases were removed from DWCC. You can add them back with the Legacy Extension, or adding a paid extension from DMX Zone...
    About 1/2 way down this page for the legacy extension: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/
    It's a paid extension, but adds back a lot of the things that were removed...

  • Batch Rename with additional "."s, drops the file extension. Request for "Keep File Extension" option...

    I NEVER name files with extra "." s in the name. I realize that all OS's (even Windows) will recognize it, but I haven't gotten out the old mindset of 8.3 filenaming... Although I do use longer names. So... I was surprised to see that when I was renaming files as per a clients naming preference to add a period within the name, the file extension is removed.
    For example: 
    original file -  2014_10_31_1643.CR2   when batch renaming to "2014.31" + sequence, drops the "CR2" extension.
    but.... if I change it to "2014_31" + sequence, the ".CR2" remains
    Since adding multiple "." is a legitimate naming convention, shouldn't the file extension remain?  Or, possibly this could be made more flexible by adding a check box "Keep file extension"
    just a thought.

    Refer to this stackexchange article:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/47319/how-can-i-make-os-x-recognize-new -file-extensions
    The finder will only select the filename only for "known" file types.

  • Cannot set default programs for a file extension in Gnome

    After a gnome upgrade (cannot remember when), I can no longer set the default program for a particular file extension by right clicking the file in nautilus -> going to "properties" -> going to "open with" tab -> highlighting a program -> pressing "set as default".

    The program I was trying to set was totem for default video playback; wine had made windows media player the default player prior. Interestingly, once I installed gnome-mplayer; the default program changed to gnome-mplayer and I was then able to switch default programs. This error may be related to wine.

  • Create custom code colouring for additional file types

    Hi All,
    I spend a lot of time editing .ini files in Dreamweaver (in my case langague files for custom Joomla extensions). Although the file format is extremely  simple, particularly in the way that they re used in this context, I would like to improve the readability by adding code coloring  for strins, standard text and comments.
    I haven't been able to find any really useful information on the web about how to go about doing this.
    From what i can gather, the steps are
    Get Dreamweaver to recognise the file type (editing Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml?)
    Add the code coloringxml file.
    So far I've had no success with the first step, so haven't tried the second.
    It would be great if I caould also add it as an option in the New File dialog.
    If some kind and clever person could point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
    I'm in Dreamwaever CC on Windows 7, if that's relevant
    Cheers
    Keith

    What have you tried so far that made you think that you were not successful?  To add new file extensions to be recognized in DW, you need to go to:
    Edit >> Preferences and then look for something like in this picture:
    Now this is in CS6 and I suspect the steps should be similar in CC.  If not then CC is a step backwards in terms of progress in current technology IMO.  I don't use CC so can't comment any further here.
    Good luck.

  • Dreamweaver as custom editor for other file extensions

    So, I'm working on a project that requires me to work on some
    files with non-standard extensions. Namely, I have some text files
    that have a .cm extension, and I have some code files which have no
    extension at all. I am connecting to my file store via an FTP
    "site" set up in Dreamweaver.
    Under preferences->filetypes/editors, I set up ". .cm" for
    those two cases, and had selected "Dreamweaver" as the primary
    editor.
    The files open just fine, and I'm able to edit and save them,
    and when I do, the files get "PUT" back up to the FTP server as I
    want. However, what I've noticed is that the first time I edit one
    of those types of files, and save it, now, from then on in that
    session of Dreamweaver, any time I de-focus the window and then
    come back to it, the IDE initiates another PUT action of the files
    in question, even if the files are unchanged.
    However, if I go back into preferences, and remove the
    "Dreamweaver" as the primary editor for those two extensions, and
    leave that list blank, Dreamweaver still is able to open up the
    files as I want, but this weirdness with FTP putting and the
    window-focus goes away.
    Anyone have any idea why?

    This TechNote explains how to add file extensions to be
    recognized by DW.

    Unfortunately, DW does not handle file with no file extension
    very well.

  • Syntax Highlighting for custom file extensions

    Hi everyone.
    I am currently working on a PHP project, and we are using
    *.thtml files for templates. The file isn't supported by
    Dreamweaver, as it's a fictional file extension. First I couldn't
    even open it with Dreamweaver, but after I added it in
    settings/file types, it worked.
    Now my question - how can I activate syntax highlighting for
    this filetype? It contains HTML and PHP, so it should work with the
    same highlighter as all the other file types do..
    Can someone help me out?
    Thanks.

  • Pre-sales question for IPOD (file extensions)

    I would like to buy my mother a IPOD Nano 2gb for her upcoming birthday, but have a quick question on the way it formats the files on my PC.
    Do I HAVE to have Itunes or any other software on my pc in order to place .mp3's on the IPOD?
    If I have to have software in order to place songs on the IPOD, will it change anything on my PC, for an example, will it change any of my file extensions or file names of any of my music from .mp3 to .???
    I have a DELL mp3 player and I love how I can just throw any song at it from Microsoft Window's File Explorer, and it'll play it.. I've never used or messed around with an ipod.
    Thanks in advanced,
    chris

    Do I HAVE to have Itunes or any other software on my pc in order to place .mp3's on the IPOD?
    Yes.
    If I have to have software in order to place songs on the IPOD, will it change anything on my PC, for an example, will it change any of my file extensions or file names of any of my music from .mp3 to .???
    iTunes will not change the format of your music unless you explictly tell it to do so, or import unprotected WMA files into iTunes under Windows, in which case duplicates will be created in a format which is directly usable in iTunes. The Mac OS X version of iTunes will not handle WMA songs.

  • Searching directories for specific file extensions

    I wanted to try something, and that was to create a file with basic text loos it some where on the HD and make a program that would search the directories (So lets say you put in C:\bla\ ) for the file matching the extention (already set by the program) as say .doc - it would then open all of those files (while loop) and scan them recording data (which im not sure what yet) and printing specific data to a file
    most of this I know how to do including nav to the directory, what i dont know how to do is make the program scan the directory for the file and open it.
